REAL SOUTHERN CORNBREAD
Yes, we do have cornbread in the house or on the table as a staple food item. 24/7. We eat it with just about everything we cook. A lot of folks eat it at night, soaked in buttermilk, just before bedtime. I don't normally put sugar in it, but there are a lot of heated discussions about the use or absence of sugar.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
- 2. Place oil in a 9-inch cast-iron skillet or similar-size glass or corning ware baking dish and transfer to the pre-heating oven.
- 3. Mix cornmeal, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Add egg and milk (or buttermilk); stir until just combined. Remove the pan from the oven and very carefully swirl the oil to coat the bottom and a little way up the sides. Again, Very carefully pour the excess hot oil into the cornmeal mixture; stir until just combined. Pour the batter into the hot pan. NOTE: The key is the oiled, preheated cast iron pan, which gives the finished bread that incredible crisp edged texture.
- 4. Bake until the bread is firm in the middle and lightly golden on top with a nice brown crust on the bottom, about 20 minutes. It will be pulling away from the sides of the skillet. Let cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm.

[email protected]I don't think this recipe is worth the effort. It's not much better than the cornbread mix you can buy at the store.
