Re: calling on the southern cooks

[Guest guest]

I'm not a Southern cook, but here's what my old Betty Crocker calls

southern corn bread

2 eggs

2 c buttermilk

1 t soda

2 c corn meal

1 t salt

Beat the eggs, buttermilk and soda, beat in the corn meal and salt. Poor

into buttered hot square pan, muffin tins or corn stick pans. Bake at 450

just until set.

This is the recipe I use now we are gfcf (I use rice milk and 1 t vinegar

for the buttermilk). It has an old fashioned, heavier taste than what we

are accustomed to, and not nearly as sweet. But it works for us.

Hi ,

We always use cornbread dressing too. Don't know what I'm going to do now

that I have taken Alyssa off of corn.

Before I did though I served this version of my original recipe and no one

could even tell.

If you don't like it quite as sweet, use white corn meal instead of the

yellow.

Hope this helps,

Get self-rising cornmeal. Some brands do not contain wheat flour. Check

the ingredients before you buy. I THINK the brand I buy is Dixie Lily.

We have it just about every weekend for breakfast with no trouble. It

makes great cornbread.
