hasty pudding
Quick-cooked grain mush
Hasty pudding is a simple porridge made quickly by stirring flour or grain into boiling water or milk.
In Britain, it traditionally uses wheat flour; in America, cornmeal—making it similar to polenta or grits.
The name reflects its speed of preparation compared to baked puddings: We had hasty pudding with molasses for breakfast.
