Timeless Nutrition to Warm the Stomach and Soul — Cornbread: A Recipe
Long for a taste of the south? Look no further, ITF to the rescue.
What you need:
Procure a mixing bowl, a whisk, an egg, one cup of milk, your box of cornbread, and an 8x8x2 baking pan. Notice the iced tea cold brewing on the right.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees (375 for glass pan). Combine one egg,
one cup of milk,
and box of Krusteaz cornbread.
Whisk briskly!
Pour mixture into lightly greased pan.
Slide this slice of the southland into the oven!
Bake for 20-25 minutes (25-30 for glass pan).
Start cleaning up. Lick spoon.
Put bowl and utensils in sink to be washed in the upcoming monthly dishwashing marathon.
When time is drawing nigh, test the cornbread with a toothpick.
If toothpick comes out clean, this dixieland delicacy is almost ready to consume! If cornbread sticks to toothpick, bake a few minutes longer.
Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Cut into 9 squares, removing one for immediate consumption. Slice in half, apply a liberal portion of butter.
Enjoy with a glass of sweetened iced tea!

I admire your ‘puting abilities, my friend! I’m still working on the image thing. BUT! I now have two books from the library about HTML programming. BTW, you should try making cornbread from scratch. With a 6 oz. can of niblet corn and some sour cream in the recipe. Yum!

Yes! I do eat it with honey after it has completely cooled. I failed to mention that. When it’s smokin’ hot though, I like it with just tons of butter.
PAUL!! Send me the recipe!!

Paul, don’t you think that Tom should come down here and we could take him out to eat at Taylor’s Bar-B-Que!! Yeah, I’ll even pay for his meal! How’s that sound?

Great-Aunt Mary Good’s recipe for corn bread:
1 cup self-rising cornmeal
2 Tbs. sugar
3 level tsp. baking powder
2 eggs, beaten
1 small can creamed corn
1 cup sour cream
1/4 cup oil
Preheat oven to 425*. Grease 7×11 (or equivalent) pan and place in oven to warm. Mix ingredients well. Pour into hot pan. Bake for 15 min. or until golden. (Or until toothpick is clean.)
Then let your tongue beat your brains out. Slip, slap, slurp…Yum!
