Remove all meat from the pork bones and chop or grind it fine. Add
it to the cooked mush. Season with salt, dried thyme or sage,
nutmmeg, and cayenne.
Pour the scrapple into a bread pan that has been rinsed with cold
water. Let it stand until cold and firm. Slice it. To serve, saute
slowly in melted butter or drippings.
Corn Meal Mush:
Combine and stir cornmeal, cold water, and salt. Place in the top
of a double boiler the liquid from cooking the pork above. Stir
cornmeal mixture in gradually. Cook and stir the mush over quick heat
from 2 to 3 minutes. Steam it, covered, over (not in) hot water about
15 minutes. Stir it frequently.
You may substitute 1 cup oatmeal for the cornmeal. In cooking
oatmeal, you may want to reduce the liquid by one cup.
