Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Cover baking sheet with foil.
- Combine flour, corn meal, baking powder, salt and three tablespoons sugar in a food processor and process to blend. Add butter and pulse until mixture is uniformly crumbly. (Ingredients can be mixed by hand.) Transfer to a mixing bowl and lightly stir in egg and buttermilk, moistening ingredients so they can be gathered to make a soft dough.
- Pat dough on a lightly floured board to three-quarter-inch thickness. Cut into six four-inch rounds. Put on baking sheet and bake until barely beginning to brown, about 15 minutes. Cool on racks.
- Put strawberries in a bowl and sweeten to taste. Add kirsch. Whip cream until thickened, fold in two tablespoons confectioners' sugar and continue whipping until nearly stiff. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Split shortcakes. Spread bottom halves with some of the whipped cream and top with a layer of strawberries. Spread undersides of top halves with remaining whipped cream and put on cakes. Dust tops with remaining confectioners' sugar. Serve with additional berries spooned around cakes.
