MAN I love this stuff!

in order to get my youngest son to eat it, we called it 'corncake'.

LOL!

Soak it in butter, too...

FGM,,,

LOOOOOVE me some Corn Bread !!

I like day old corn bread cumbled in a bowl with milk and a bit of honey on it...

Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm !

wheel,

Just had a bowl of navy beans with hot pepper vinegar and cbread! OUCH!

Mmmm, cornbread. Savory or sweet?

^ Savory,,,

wheel,

Only thing better is Jalepeno Cornbread soaked in a bowl of Snap Beans & New Potatos

Cooked in a black iron skillet with some bacon grease.

Now I need a snack.

I make a cornbread that is sweet. Honey and whipping cream are in the recipe. I would like to try a savory type.

Savory in the iron skillet

Born and raised in the South (and still living there) - "sweet" cornbread is a no-no with most. It's why you make a pone of regular cornbread and a pound cake for dessert.

Fried chicken, pinto beans (seasoned with a ham bone), fried potatoes with onions, spicy chow-chow (hot pickle relish) - and cornbread loaded with butter. Yep, that will cure what ails ya!

Had us some tasty cornbread last night with red beans n rice......mmmmmmmmmm

Cornbread RAWKS!!!!

Sweet Cornbread SUCKS!!!

I swear I'm starting to question my Southernhood...

I drink Unsweet Tea, and I've gotten to like a little sweetness in my cornbread.

I don't much care for the dry bland cornbread that some folks make.

I even like the Jiffy box mix...Its pretty good to me.

Cool.....I thought I was strange that I liked cornbread sweet, it's still crumbly, but a bit moist.

But, I'm a Northerner.

Mattie, if you're sweetening your cornbread and not your tea - you're a goner. I guess it'll be lox and bagels for breakfast real soon..... so sad.

Mattie ...Jiffy has that sweet taste to it....That's what the wifey uses...When I make it...cornmeal/flour/eggs

White Cornbread is the savory crunchy type while Yellow Cornbread is the one that tastes like cake. Yellow Cornbread is also the one that was always served in school lunch rooms. If you are going to make Mexican Cornbread, or work it with Chili, I prefer the Yellow. For all Southern dishes, I like White Cornbread, made like Mom makes it in a cast iron frying pan with bacon grease.

BTW, if you are diabetic, you can get away with eating fried foods and other Southern dishes by drowning it in pepper vinegar sauce. Vinegar stops the blood from absorbing the sugar/carbs. Adding a touch of Cayenne powder (not even enough to taste) will achieve the same purpose with many other foods, especially breads, if you are baking.
