Corn Dodgers
Report
Corn Dodgers are a very old, rural southern recipe served as an accompaniment to cooked greens. You could think of them as cornmeal dumplings!
Share:
Ingredients
- 1 cup plain, finely ground white cornmeal
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped green onion
- 4 cups broth from turnip greens (may use more broth)
Instructions
- Cook turnip greens following your usual recipe or use mine (linked here). About 45 minutes before serving, make the corn dodgers.
- Mix the cornmeal, salt, pepper, and onion in a medium bowl. Add broth starting with about 3/4 cup to make a stiff dough.
- Shape the dough into rolls about twice as long as wide.
- From the turnips, remove 3 cups of broth and place in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium high heat. Drop in the dodgers and lower the heat to a simmer. Cook slowly until done through, about 30 minutes, turning the dodgers over a few times.
- Serve with turnip greens and additional “pot likker.”
Notes
- * "Pot likker" is the liquid, or broth, that the turnip greens were cooked in.
- Store along with leftover greens, completely cooled, in a tightly closed container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in simmering leftover pot likker over low heat.
