HILLYBILLY CORNBREAD

Once a year at the county fair I purchase a coarse ground yellow cornmeal. This recipe is attached and is a great southern recipe. The 3 tablespoons of flour can be easily substituted with a gluten free blend. Preheating the cast iron skillet makes for a nice crust on the bread.

HILLBILLY TEA CORNMEAL NOODLES

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h40m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 cup coarse cornmeal
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons ground tea, such as Sweetgrass Hillbilly Tea
1 tablespoon olive oil
5 eggs
Olive oil
1 pound oyster mushrooms, julienned
2 pounds Brussels sprouts
2 red peppers, julienned
2 cups cream
2 cloves garlic, minced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Fresh lemon zest, for garnish

Steps:

  • For the noodles: Mix together the flour, cornmeal and salt on a clean work surface. Make a well in the middle and add the tea, oil and eggs. Mix the egg mixture with a fork until well combined, then slowly mix in the flour until incorporated enough to mix by hand. Knead the dough for 5 minutes; you will know it is done when you squeeze it and the dough springs back afterwards. Set the dough aside and let rest for 30 minutes.
  • Cut the dough into thirds and transfer to a floured work surface. Roll out as thinly as you can; flour is your friend here. Sprinkle a little flour on one part of the dough, roll it up into a tube like you would with a jelly roll, and cut it into strips. Repeat with the remaining dough, flouring the noodles generously to prevent sticking. The noodles can be refrigerated for up to 2 days before use.
  • For the sauce: Bring a large stock pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Heat some olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, Brussels sprouts and red peppers and cook until lightly caramelized. Turn the heat to low and add the cream, garlic and some salt and black pepper.
  • When the water has reached a rolling boil, drop your noodles into the pot and cook for 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the noodles into the sauce using a spider strainer, adding 1 cup pasta cooking water, and then turn the heat to medium-high. (If you don't have a spider strainer, add 1 cup of pasta water to the sauce, and then separately drain and add the noodles without rinsing.) Cook the noodles in the sauce, stirring, until it all comes together and thickens, 2 to 3 minutes. Plate it up and finish the dish with some fresh lemon zest over top!

Tips:

  • Use fresh cornmeal for the best flavor and texture. If you don't have fresh cornmeal, you can use store-bought cornmeal, but make sure it's finely ground.
  • Buttermilk adds a slight tang and richness to the cornbread. If you don't have buttermilk, you can use regular milk with a tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice added to it.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the cornbread tough.
  • Bake the cornbread in a hot oven for the best results. A hot oven will help the cornbread to rise and brown properly.
  • Let the cornbread cool slightly before serving. This will help it to set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Cornbread is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. It's also a great snack or breakfast food. With so many different recipes to choose from, there's sure to be a cornbread recipe that everyone will enjoy.
