Does anybody have a good recipe for fried mush? Would you like to share it?

My grandmother used to prepare fried mush. She said her mother made large amounts of mush when she was a girl because all the family liked fried mush. We were talking about food we had eaten long ago, and no one knows how to make it.

    i worked for a lady who loved it but it was not called fried mush, she called it scrapple

    she was 91 or 92 when i started working for her and we would make it for her for breakfast.

    cook about half pound of ground sausage, drain it and set it aside then you cook the mush according to the directions on the package when it begins to thicken add the sausage and about 1/2 teaspoon of allspice

    let it thicken stirring as it does

    when it is thick spread it into a loaf pan and cover it with some plastic wrap and refrigerate over night

    the next morning,

    slice it very thin, dip it in beaten egg, and finely crushed cracker crumbs

    fry it in a little oil and serve it with your favorite syrup

    it is best when it is crunchy on the out side and soft in the middle.

    i use to make it for my family after i learned how and they still love it.

    i will have to make some one of these days soon since you reminded me of it .

    thanks! enjoy!
