Finally bought corn.....now what.

[cootie]

I finally found a feed store and bought some corn. When I grind it, will it be corn flour, or corn meal. Also, does this dried corn double as corn seed? Can I plant it? The owner assured me that this is just dried corn right off the cob, so I'm sure it's safe for human consumption. Although he never heard of it being used for grinding into cornmeal! Another thread on this site discussed this issue as well.

 

Thanks!

Hot Dogs on a Stick

 

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour

2/3 cup yellow cornmeal

2 tablespoons sugar

1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon dry mustard

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons shortening

1 beaten egg

3/4 cup milk

8 to 10 wooden skewers (look for them at craft shops)

1 pound frankfurters, smoked frankfurters, or cheese-filled frankfurters (8

to 10)

Cooking oil

Catsup (optional)

Mustard (optional)

Directions

1. In a bowl, stir together flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, dry

mustard, and salt. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles fine crumbs.

2. In a bowl, mix together egg and milk. Add to flour mixture and mix well.

3. Insert wooden skewers into the ends of frankfurters. Pour cooking oil

into skillet to a depth of 1 inch; heat oil to 365 degree F.

4. Coat franks with batter. (If batter is too thick, add 1 to 2 tablespoons

milk.) Place coated franks, 3 at a time, in hot oil. Turn franks with tongs

after 10 seconds to prevent batter from sliding off. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes

more or until golden, turning again halfway through cooking time.

5. Serve hot with catsup and mustard, if you like. Makes 8 to 10 servings.
