Ash Cakes
1 cup white cornmeal
1/2 cup flour (optional)
1/2 tsp. salt
Water
Mix dry ingredients. Add enough cold water to make a firm dough. Form the
dough into thin cakes. Clear coals from an area of the campfire and lay the
cakes on the hot earth. Rake coals and ash over the cakes and let them bake for
about five minutes. Test for doneness by thumping the cake with a spoon
handle or stick. A hollow ringing sound indicates doneness.
