Corn bread

[Axxe55]

I introduced my wife to duck eggs. They take baking to a whole other level. Now I wish I could convince her to make it more often. Grandmother always made her cornbread from scratch and it was the only bread at meals. Occasionally she would do hot water cornbread, that is just heavenly.

MY GRANNY DID A FRIED AND BAKED CORNBREADSHE POURED THE BATTER INTO A PIPING HOT CAST IRON SKILLET THE IT WENT INTO THE OVEN FOR FINAL COOKINGTHAT IS THE METHOD I USE TO MAKE CORNBREAD

I remember mine did the same from time to time. It depended on how Granddad wanted his cornbread that meal. One supper a week was just cornbread and buttermilk, I never was able to get use to the taste of buttermilk.

Jiffy or Corn-Kits?.....

I scratch make it when I do it. I won't make it unless I have a supply of bacon grease. Generally I put some Velveta & Rotel queso dip or real cracklins in mine as well.

My scratch made bacon does not produce any drippings & being a widower now I can't see making it unless I have company & a pot of beans.

I have also poured the batter into the waffle iron, making corn waffles that I would laddle a Sour Cream w/ Green chili Chicken casserole on top.

In the corn bread or the casserole? I have seen it made with creamed corn in the corn bread too.

MY STEPMOTHER WOUL ADD A CAN OF CORN AND JALAPENOS TO CORNBREAD

 

[msharley]

Either? Both? (you ever make cracked chicken?....recipe is on line....they talk krazy talk about SIX strips of bacon...they meant ONE POUND!...go generous on the cream cheese, too!)

I like it in the corn bread.

Now...fer smashed taters?

Boil up the taters.

Drain..

1/2 block cream cheese. Heavy Cream & BUTTER, a goodly spoonful of sour cream.

Some little bit of onion, generous pinch of chives.

Use mixer to smash taters....(I use stainless steel pan, or for company have stainless bowls of a size)

Serve with butter & gravy (redeye is best)...

Leftovers? I dice up some red onion, and if I have leftover corn? add it too. On a hot skillet "plop" a tablespoon of leftover smashed taters on it.

Give it a minute, then GENTLY flatten it some...(I make three or four at a time)....Flip when brown....Serve with breakfast of choice...ham, bacon, eggs, corned beef....

If a lot of left over? (am also a Widower, left overs crush me).....using wax paper make the patty's up & freeze them....They will keep six months in the freezer.

I'll serve 'em with supper and pork chops or steak.....lunch with hot dogs....sometimes left over ribs (left over ribs don't happen often, here) LOL

Fried pickled banana peppers, here! Oh! Yeah!

White bread is obligatory when it comes to BBQ but I know for a fact that places DO have cornbread...you just have to pay extra for it. Terry Black's sells cornbread by the muffin.

Give me some warm cornbread and a few pads of butter and I am a happy man

White bread or sourdough for meat. Except ham or hamhocks. Sweet cornbread with lots of butter is exceptable.
Sweet cornbread for beans.
Unless sopping up bean juice. Whatever is handy. Because that is desert.

Note that the store-bought corn breads always have LOADS of sugar.

We use the recipe from the HEB “Hill Country” brand small yellow cornmeal bags.

I don’t add sugar, but may use 1 or 2 teasp SPLENDA,

Don’t care for cake cornbread. Never use any wheat flour in mine. It is identical to that made by my old farm-Wife Grannie, who was half Cajun & half-German.
