Legend has it that these were first made on the blades of weeding hoes.Serve these white cornmeal cakes flecked with green onion with any fried entree, grilled meats or barbeque. From a September 1986 issue of Bon Appetit magazine in the R.S.V.P. section. The recipe was requested from the Riverhouse Restaurant and Oyster Bar in Tarpon Springs, Florida. *If self-rising white cornmeal is unavailable, substitute 2 cups regular white cornmeal mixed with 2 teaspoons baking powder.*

These hoecakes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more spices next time.

The cornbread onion hoecakes were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add some more milk or buttermilk next time.
