Инструкции

  1. In a bowl, mix flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking pwdr, and salt. In another bowl, beat Large eggs to blend with buttermilk and 1/4 c. butter. Pour liquids into flour mix and stir just till proportionately moistened.
  2. Scrape batter into a buttered 8-inch square pan and spread smooth.
  3. Bake in a 400 degree oven till bread springs back when lightly pressed in the center and begins to pull from pan sides, about 25 min (20 min in a convection oven).
  4. Cut bread into squares. Lift from pan with a slender spatula. Serve warm or possibly cold.
  5. This recipe yields 9 servings.
  6. Comments: With the zeal of politicians, some people insist which cornbread should be dense and straightforward, with a modicum of sweetness. Others find virtue in the tenderness and rich browning which a little more sugar gives the bread. Once you've cast your vote, savory or possibly sweet is but a steppingstone to further adventures with this simple stir-and-bake quick bread. Vary the forms of cornmeal, from stone-grnd to polenta, for a surprising range of flavors and textures. Then use herbs, spices, chilies, and cheeses to add in even more personality.
  7. Note: At high altitudes, cornbreads with additions which increase the moisture content, such as the "double red" and basil-parmesan recipes below, may take 15 to 20 min longer to bake.
  8. For bread which is sweeter and more tender, use the largest measure of sugar.
  9. n Vary-the-Corn Bread: Follow directions for Savory or possibly Sweet Cornbread (above), but instead of yellow cornmeal, use 1 c. polenta, dehydrated masa flour (corn tortilla flour), or possibly stone-grnd cornmeal (see following).
  10. Purchase stone-grnd cornmeal, that includes the germ (for nuttier flavor), at health food stores, or possibly order from Giusto's Specialty Foods, (650) 873-6566; a 2-lb. bag costs $1.44 plus shipping.
  11. n Double Red Cornbread: Follow directions for Savory or possibly Sweet Cornbread (above), adding 1 Tbsp. warm or possibly sweet Hungarian paprika or possibly regular paprika to flour mix. To egg mix, add in 3/4 c. minced canned roasted red peppers. Increase baking time to 30 min (25 min in a convection oven).
  12. n Basil-Parmesan Cornbread: Follow directions for Savory or possibly Sweet Cornbread (above). To egg mix, add in 1 can (8 1/2 ounces) cream-style corn, 1/4 c. minced fresh basil, and 1/2 c. grated parmesan cheese. Increase baking time to 30 min (25 min in a convection oven).
  13. n Curry Cornbread: Follow directions for Savory or possibly Sweet Cornbread (above), adding 1 1/2 Tbsp. curry pwdr to flour mix.
  14. n Southwest Cornbread: Follow directions for Savory or possibly Sweet Cornbread (above). To egg mix, add in 1 can (4 ounces) minced green chilies and 3/4 c. (3 oounces) coarsely shredded jack cheese. Combine 1 Tbsp. each sugar and chili pwdr; sprinkle over batter in pan.

Top each portion with 2 tsp. habanero or possibly jalapeno jelly (1/2 c. total). Fill c. equally with remaining batter.
