Did You Know?

Did you know that you can make a thick biscuit dough, flour it well, press it out in a well oiled skillet and cook on top of the stove?  This is called "Hoe Cake".  It got it's name from pioneers heading west.  When they would stop for the night they would find a flat rock, put it in the fire and when it was hot would drag it to the edge of the fire and flatten their biscuit dough on it.  When it was half done they would use their hoe to flip it over to cook on the other side.  This is a wonderful, quick bread and is delicious with butter and jam.
