This is a pioneer bread using corn meal, salt and either cold or warm water to create a batter.
Pour the batter on a hot hearth or if outside on a hot rock. Spread ashes on the top.When the bread is brown, brush off the ashes.
Some ashes will penetrate the batter.
Early settlers thought it only served to enhance the flavor!
