A simple New England yellow-cornmeal porridge, softly thickened in salted water.
About New England hasty pudding
New England hasty pudding is a quick cornmeal porridge descended from older flour-based puddings. This profile follows Yankee Magazine's plain water-cooked version.
Yellow cornmeal gives the pudding a direct toasted-corn flavour, with salt sharpening its restrained savoury base before any optional table sweetener is added.
The finished pudding is warm, pale gold and spoon-soft, with a smooth, thick porridge consistency.
