Instructions
Mix the cornmeal, salt, boiling water, olive oil, honey, and chipotle in a large bowl. Stir until there are no lumps. If the mixture is too wet add more cornmeal. It should be a solid mass but still sticky. Set the bowl aside for 15 minutes.
Dump the mixture out on a large cutting board, and divide into 4 equal sections. Flatten each piece to about 1/2 inch thick using a spatula.
Preheat a griddle or a large skillet to medium-high heat.
Brush the surface with canola oil.
Add the cornmeal mixture and cook until golden brown on each side, about a minute or two.
