CHEDDAR DILL CORNBREAD (INA GARTEN) ( BAREFOOT CONTESSA)



Cheddar Dill Cornbread (Ina Garten) ( Barefoot Contessa) image

A recipe from Ina Garten the Barefoot Contessa from the Food Network. I watched the show and had to save this recipe for safekeeping as it looks like the perfect accompaniment to soup, salad, meat or poultry dishes. It is less harsh than her jalepeno version. It looks great. It was on her Potluck episode in which she makes this and takes it to a friend. Prep time includes letting it sit at room temp per her instructions. Yum. Enjoy. ChefDLH

Yield 1 piece of cornbread, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons baking powder
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 cups milk
3 extra-large eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 lb unsalted butter, melted, plus extra to grease the pan
8 ounces aged extra-sharp white cheddar cheese, grated, divided
1 cup minced fresh dill

Steps:

  • Combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. In separate bowl, combine the milk, eggs, and butter. With a wooden spoon, stir the wet ingredients into the dry until most of the lumps are dissolved. Don't overmix!
  • Mix in 2 cups of the grated Cheddar and the dill, and allow the mixture to sit at room temperature for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9 by 13 by 2-inch baking pan.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top, and sprinkle with the remaining grated Cheddar.
  • Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool and cut into large squares.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Use fresh corn kernels. Fresh corn kernels will give your cornbread a sweeter, more flavorful taste. If you don't have fresh corn kernels, you can use frozen or canned corn kernels, but be sure to drain them well before using.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your cornbread tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cornbread in a preheated oven. This will help the cornbread to rise evenly and prevent it from sticking to the pan.
  • Let the cornbread cool slightly before serving. This will help the cornbread to hold its shape.
  • Serve the cornbread warm with butter, honey, or your favorite topping.

Conclusion:

Ina Garten's cornbread is the perfect side dish for any meal. It's moist, flavorful, and easy to make. With a few simple tips, you can make Ina Garten's cornbread at home and enjoy it with your family and friends.
