First time I ever had Johnny Cakes was at Husk in Charleston, SC (one of my favorite restaurants). They are like savory pancakes but made with cornmeal. Very yummy and a great side when served with a sauce or gravy. I don’t know what inspired me to make them at home, or to combine them…

Pork, Turnip and Sweet Potato Stew
