1 tsp salt
1/2 cup shortening, melted
2 cup whole milk

in a double broiler, combine cornmeal, sugar, salt, shortening and milk. Stir the mixture often, cooking until thick. Allow to cool, then add the eggs. Dissolve the yeast in water and add to the batter. Beat well, then allow to rise in a greased bowl for about 2 hours.
After the batter has risen, add the flour to form a soft dough. Knead the dough lightly, and allow to rise again for another hour. Then knead again. Roll the dough out with a floured rolling pin and cut into rounds with a biscuit cutter.
Brush with butter, then with floured hands, fold into desired shapes (fans, twists,rolls,etc) . Place on a greased baking sheet and allow to rise for another hour.
Bake at 375 for just 15-20 minutes.
