Rhode Islanders love their johnny cakes the way Southerners love hushpuppies. You won\u2019t confuse johnny cakes with hushpuppies, though. Unlike those cornbread fritters, johnny cakes are thin, 100-percent corn meal pancakes passed down from the Narragansett tribe.<\/p>\n

A spoonful of corn meal mush gets griddled until it\u2019s crispy outside yet still soft and creamy inside. There\u2019s nothing but corn flavor through and through\u2014except of course for the tang of the maple syrup it happily soaks up.<\/p>\n

Etymologists say johnny cakes<\/em> evolved from journey cakes<\/em> because early settlers packed them for trips. Seriously? These fragile cakes can break on the way from the stove to the table.<\/p>\n

I did learn that jonakin<\/em> is an early American name for this pancake, and perhaps it was just a short jump from there to johnny cake<\/em>.<\/p>\n

My mom discovered johnny cakes on a tour of Kenyon\u2019s Grist Mill<\/a>, Rhode Island\u2019s oldest manufacturing business, famous for grinding meals and flours since about 1700. Using the recipe on the back of the box of Kenyon\u2019s Stone Ground Johnny Cake White Corn Meal, she griddled up what I thought were some of her best pancakes\u2014and certainly her most memorable.<\/p>\n

Kenyon\u2019s claims its heirloom white Indian corn, also called flint corn, is \u201cthe original and only corn meal that you will find that will make a real Rhode Island johnny cake.\u201d I took this seriously, and fortunately found Kenyon’s at my local Stop and Shop.<\/p>\n

I’ve noticed that Kenyon\u2019s corn meal is now hard to find. They sell it online, but it\u2019s pricey: $24.50 for 32 ounces including shipping. At that price, it should come with a Certificate of Authenticity.<\/p>\n

Yellow corn meal makes better johnny cakes.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

What are we to do now? Can we successfully substitute easy-to-find yellow corn meal for the official white?<\/p>\n

Recipephany Test Kitchens set off to answer this question. We pitted Indian Head Old Fashioned Stone Ground Yellow Corn Meal against Kenyon\u2019s Johnny Cake Corn Meal. Note that Indian Head, our go-to all-purpose corn meal, costs less than $2 for 32 ounces.<\/p>\n

Surprisingly, in a blind taste test we found that yellow corn meal made not just adequate, but superior johnny cakes. A slightly coarser grind than its white counterpart, it fried up just a little crispier, produced thinner pancakes, and cooked a bit faster. Best of all, the yellow johnny cakes had deeper, sweeter corn flavor.<\/p>\n

This means that for less than a tenth of the price of Kenyon\u2019s corn meal shipped from Rhode Island, you can make delicious, perfectly authentic johnny cakes for your next Sunday brunch. Despite what Kenyon\u2019s says, johnny cakes do come in yellow as well as white.<\/p>\n

So give these a try and get an idea of how the Native Americans hooked colonists on corn. Native Americans also cooked up maple syrup, so make sure you\u2019ve got the real thing on hand to get the full Rhode Island johnny cake experience.<\/p>\n

P.S. I couldn’t find Kenyon’s corn meal in stores, so I called the company and spoke with the owner. He said he’d send me some for my story, and I got excited that Recipephany might finally get a freebie. When the box arrived, though, I found an invoice for $24.50 tucked beside the corn meal. I gladly paid it, relieved that I wouldn\u2019t feel obliged to give them special consideration. Rest assured, Recipephany remains outside the pockets of Big Corn Meal.<\/p>\n

Rhode Island Johnny Cakes<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Adapted from Kenyon\u2019s Stone Ground Johnny Cake White Corn Meal back-of-box recipe.<\/em><\/p>\n

    \n
  • 1 cup stone ground corn meal, yellow or white<\/li>\n
  • Oil or butter<\/li>\n
  • 1 tsp sugar<\/li>\n
  • \u00bd tsp salt<\/li>\n
  • 1\u00bd cups boiling water<\/li>\n
  • \u00bd cup milk<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Mix corn meal, sugar and salt in a bowl.
    \n2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Gradually add boiling water, mixing well to combine, and let sit for about 5 minutes.
    \n3.\u00a0 \u00a0 Add \u00bd cup milk and stir well. (Add more if desired. A thinner batter makes for a thinner and lacier johnny cake.)
    \n4.\u00a0 \u00a0 Drop batter by spoonfuls onto a well greased, medium hot griddle or skillet.
    \n5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 If using white corn meal, let sit for 6 minutes, or until they have turned brown around the edges. With yellow corn meal, they need to sit for only about 4 minutes.
    \n6.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Place a little oil or butter on each cake, then flip them over and press down slightly with a spatula to flatten. Cook for about 5 minutes more (a little less with yellow corn meal), pressing down as needed to keep them thin.
    \n7.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Serve with maple syrup on top or for dipping.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
