Recipe for Egg Pone.
Another no-frills recipe from: Cheap receipts and hints on cookery; collected for distribution amongst the Irish peasantry in 1847. As a reminder to our readers, the Irish potato famine occurred between 1845-1852.
The book is filled with recipes using cornmeal and rice. ZERO -0- recipes using potatoes.
Egg pone is a straight-forward, 4 ingredient recipe:
- Eggs
- Cornmeal
- Milk
- Salt
No doubt edible. Probably not half-bad if served with jam.
