RE: Hardtack & Johnnie Cake

I have made many batches of hard tack over the years. Most with just flour and water. I double bake mine just to insure all the moisture is baked out.

I have seen hard tack in museums that was baked in the american CW and from appearances it is still fit to eat, if any of it could be considered fit to eat.

My kids also had a favorite HT recipe which substituted honey for the water and a final dusting of powdered sugar. That never lasted long.
