AGGIE'S AUTHENTIC DEEP SOUTH CORNBREAD



Aggie's Authentic Deep South Cornbread image

My friend Joyce who lives in the Florida Panhandle taught me to make cornbread when we first moved to Alabama. You can't much deeper south than Florida. She says this is exactly the way that her mother made it and I am so happy to keep her mother's tradition alive.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 c stone ground cornmeal
3/4 c all purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp kosher salt
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
3 Tbsp bacon drippings, melted plus more for greasing skillet
1 c buttermilk

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 425-degrees and position a rack in the middle. Grease a 9-inch cast iron frying pan with bacon drippings and place in hot oven to heat while preparing batter. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
  • 2. In a large bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and the eggs. Add the melted bacon drippings. Add the flour-cornmeal mixture and stir just until combined. Pour the batter into the heated cast iron skillet. Bake until the cornbread just begins to brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 18 to 23 minutes. Flip it onto a plate or cooling rack so the crust does not soften. Cool for about 10 minutes before serving.

REAL SOUTHERN CORNBREAD



Real Southern Cornbread image

This is my families recipe, with a small change in the method which I learned from a book. It's the only cornbread I will eat. Please use a 10 inch cast iron skillet -- it makes a big difference in how this bread turns out.

Time 35m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup yellow cornmeal (fresh, and preferably stone-ground)
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
1 large egg
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup corn oil (or plain vegetable oil)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Put the skillet in the oven and preheat to 375 degrees.
  • Combine the dry ingredients except for the baking soda in a bowl.
  • In another bowl, mix the buttermilk and the baking soda.
  • Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, beat the egg with the sugar until combined.
  • Add the oil and mix until combined.
  • Pour this mixture into the buttermilk/baking soda, and mix.
  • When the oven is preheated, toss the butter into the skillet and let it melt.
  • Meanwhile, pour the wet ingredients into the dry, and mix in as few strokes as it takes to just make the dough come together.
  • Pull the skillet out of the oven, swirling to get the butter covering the bottom and up the sides of the skillet.
  • Pour the batter immediately into the pan, smoothing the top, then back into the oven for about 25 minutes, or until golden brown and pulled away from the sides of the pan.
  • Turn out onto a cutting board, cut into wedges and serve.
  • NOTE: IMNSHO- cornbread isn't worth making if you don't make it in a cast-iron skillet.
  • It may just be my upbringing, but it tastes better somehow.
  • And please do not add the baking soda to the dry ingredients.
  • I can't explain why, but adding it to the buttermilk makes a big difference in the texture.
