My French Canadian grandma used to make this for my dad and all his siblings. It has become a Jordan family staple. I like it with the anise, but feel free to adjust the amount or eliminate it all together. Kids generally don't like it with anise.

    This was really good, Lyndsey. Thanks for sharing - kind of like a homemade and sweet cream of wheat. I would probably use a bit less sugar...

          My dad used to make mush and put buttermilk in it. I like it without the anise, not a licorice fan. I haven't had mush in a long time, might have to make it soon.

            This sure sounds like a throwback to simpler days. I know my kids will like the name "Miner's mush"! We'll try it this weekend and I'll send you some feedback. Thanks for sharing, Lyndsey!
