Legend has it that these were first made on the blades of weeding hoes.Serve these white cornmeal cakes flecked with green onion with any fried entree, grilled meats or barbeque.

The recipe was requested from the Riverhouse Restaurant and Oyster Bar in Tarpon Springs, Florida. *If self-rising white cornmeal is unavailable, substitute 2 cups regular white cornmeal mixed with 2 teaspoons baking powder.*
