Corn Meal Mush for Breakfast

 
I was raised on this " mush ". Mom made it often and in the winter month we would go to some of dads relatives and one week mom and Mattie made mush, and the next week they made chili.. But mom made it alot at home for us kids too :)
 
 

3 cups yellow corn meal, 2 qts boiling water, salt to taste.  Slowly add meal to boiling water stirring constantly to prevent lumping when it is mixed.  Stir until smooth, cover pot and cook in double boiler 2 to 3 hours.  Pour into oblong pan and let cool over night.  Next morning slice and fry slowly in butter serve with homemade molasses or honey.
