Corn Pone

"Legs," one of Thomas Jefferson's Plantations

Corn pone is highly recommended as a breakfast dish. Take a heaping coffeecupful of boiled hominy, heat it, and thin in a tablespoonful of butter, three eggs, and nearly one pint of sweet milk. As much corn meal may be added as will serve to thicken this till it is like the batter for "Johnny-cakes." Bake in a quick oven and serve.

From page 54 of the 1904 edition.
