About Johnny cake
Johnny Cake, also known as journey cake or hoecake, is a traditional cornmeal flatbread with deep roots in Native American and Caribbean cuisine. Made from simple ingredients like cornmeal, water or milk, salt, and sometimes a touch of sugar and fat, it is typically cooked on a griddle or skillet. This rustic bread, celebrated for its simplicity, is a symbol of sustenance and adaptability. From a nutritional perspective, Johnny Cake provides energy through its carbohydrate-rich base of cornmeal. It also contains dietary fiber and essential nutrients like iron and magnesium in moderate amounts. However, its nutritional profile depends on preparation, as recipes often incorporate butter or oil which can increase calorie and fat content. Opting for whole-grain cornmeal and limiting added sugars and fats can boost its health benefits. Versatile and satisfying, Johnny Cake remains a beloved staple in a variety of cuisines.
