High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Jonnycake (also johnnycake, johnny cake, journey cake, and Johnny Bread) is a cornmeal flatbread that was an early American staple food, and prepared on the Atlantic coast from Newfoundland to Jamaica. The food probably originates from the native inhabitants of North America. It is still eaten in the West Indies and Bermuda as well as in the United States. The modern jonnycake is a staple in the cuisine of New England, and often claimed as originating in Rhode Island. A modern jonnycake is fried gruel made from yellow or white cornmeal that is mixed with salt and hot water or milk, and sometimes sweetened. In the Southern United States, the same food is referred to as hoecake. The earliest attestation of the term "johnny cake" is from 1739 (in South Carolina); the spelling "journey cake" is only attested from 1775 (on the Gulf coast), but may be the earlier form. The word is likely based on the word "Jonakin," recorded in New England in 1765, itself derived from the word "jannock," recorded in Northern England in the 16th century.
