2 1/2 cups water
3 cups corn kernels
5 potatoes, Md, Pare & Cube
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 quart milk

  • Saute the onion in the pork fat just until tender, but not brown.
  • Add the water, corn, potatoes and salt, cooking, uncovered, until the potatoes are almost soft.

  • Taste for seasoning, adding a good bit of freshly ground pepper.
  • Sprinkle the surface with the salt pork and serve with a large supply of soda crackers.
