Preparation

1. Bring the water and salt to a boil in a heavy covered 3-quart saucepan.
2. Dump the cornmeal into the water, and stir with a wooden spoon to moisten completely. Reduce heat to low, and stir again.
3. Cover, and continue cooking about 10 minutes. The mixture should be fairly stiff. Remove from the heat, stir again and set aside, covered, 30 to 40 minutes, until the mixture is just warm.
4. Spoon out in a mound on a serving dish and serve in place of bread with soups and stews. Mealie meal is eaten by pulling hunks of it off the mound and squeezing it lightly between the fingertips to compress it.
