BLUE CORNMEAL PANCAKES



Blue Cornmeal Pancakes image

This is a recipe from a cafe in Santa Fe, New Mexico. They are good with maple syrup or, if you're ambitious, with homemade peach or raspberry spread. This recipe serves four people, fewer if they're very hungry.

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

¾ cup blue cornmeal
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 cup boiling water
1 beaten egg
½ cup milk
2 tablespoons butter, melted
¾ cup unbleached all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ cup pine nuts, toasted

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, mix together the blue cornmeal, salt and sugar. Stir in the boiling water until all of the ingredients are wet. Cover, and let stand for a few minutes.
  • In a measuring cup, combine the milk, egg and melted butter. Stir the milk mixture into the cornmeal mixture. Combine the flour and baking powder; stir into the cornmeal mixture until just incorporated. If the batter is stiff, add a little more milk until it flows off the spoon thickly but smoothly.
  • Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat, and grease it with a dab of oil or butter. Use about 2 tablespoons of batter for each pancake. Quickly sprinkle a few pignoli onto each cake. When the entire surface of the pancakes are covered with bubbles, flip them over, and cook the other side until golden. It's hard to tell when blue food is cooked through--so give them a few extra seconds if you're in doubt.
  • Serve immediately with maple syrup of fruit preserves.

BLUE CORNMEAL PANCAKES WITH BLUEBERRY BUTTER



Blue Cornmeal Pancakes With Blueberry Butter image

This tart-but-sweet butter brings an extra hue of cerulean to dusty-blue cornmeal pancakes, but it also happens to be our favorite butter for muffins or scones.

Yield Makes 14-16 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 18

Blueberry butter:
½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
¼ cup fresh blueberries, washed and thoroughly dried
2 teaspoons blueberry preserves
¼ teaspoon ground coriander
Pinch of kosher salt
Pancakes:
1½ cups blue cornmeal
¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1½ cups buttermilk
¼ cup canola or grapeseed oil
Nonstick cooking spray
Maple syrup

Steps:

  • Blueberry butter:
  • Add the butter, blueberries, preserves, coriander, and salt to a food processor. Blend until smooth. (Store in the fridge, wrapped in paper or plastic, or in a butter keeper, for up to 5 days; or freeze for up to 3 months.)
  • Tip: A stick of butter coming out of the fridge can take a surprisingly long time to come to room temperature. To speed it up, cut the butter into ½-inch pieces and leave on the counter; it should be at room temp in 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Pancakes:
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • In a medium bowl or large liquid measuring cup, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, and oil until smooth.
  • Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the buttermilk mixture. Use a rubber spatula or wooden spoon to fold together until just combined. Do not overmix. Allow the batter to rest for about 5 minutes.
  • Heat a griddle or large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and grease lightly with nonstick cooking spray. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using 2 heaping tablespoons of batter for each pancake. With the back of the spoon, gently spread the batter into a 3- to 4-inch circle. Cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side until golden brown and the center of the pancake feels slightly firm to the touch, another 3 minutes. Remove from the pan and repeat with the remaining batter.
  • Serve the pancakes hot with the blueberry butter and maple syrup.
  • Note: *Judy Kuhn is a brilliant Broadway actor who also just happens to be the singing voice of Pocahontas. It should also be noted that Vanessa Williams did a great job with the pop version of the song, which played over the closing credits.
