Hard Times Coffee

Hard Times Coffee

It's not getting any cheaper...

Mix well 2 quarts wheat bran with 1 pint yellow corn meal. Add 3 well-beaten eggs and 1 cup best sorghum molasses. Beat well; spread on pan and put to dry in oven. Use great care by stirring often while it is browning - this is the secret of good coffee. A handful is sufficient for two persons. Sweet cream improves the flavor of the brew, but, as with store-bought coffee, this is a matter of personal taste.
