I just made this as the base for my cornbread dressin' and it's AMAZING. I'm thrilled to find a cornbread recipe with so little fat and so much flavor.

Hmm…maybe I did something wrong, but I tried this yesterday and it was a little too dense and dry (It looked gorgeous). I was also thinking it might be because there's not much butter or sugar in it compared to most cornbread recipes. Darn healthy stuff.

This is so good and the best – 1) PANTRY STAPLES for me (use the 1 cup milk + 1 T vinegar stand 10 mins trick in place of buttermilk) 2) Not much fat! 2 Ts for a whole loaf, many cornbread recipes I see are FULL of fats or cheeses.

New cornbread fave from this guy up in Ottawa, ON! (Used yellow cornmeal. Never seen the white stuff @ most stores here but then, I haven't looked for it.)

Rose – Pyrex or even a thin metal pan ought to work. It may bake up differently as Pyrex won't hold nearly as much heat. So I'd lower the temp by perhaps 50 degrees and bake longer. But the butter trick should still work. DON'T use the loaf pan, this bread needs room to spread.

Hello –
I am a filmmaker in Atlanta. I just wanted to let you know I produced a 21 minute documentary about Miss Edna Lewis. The film is called "Fried Chicken and Sweet Potato Pie".

It is viewable in its entirety on Internet at a Gourmet Magazine website:

http://www.gourmet.com/magazine/video/2008/01/Edn...

and at this Library of Virginia website:

My website, http://bbarash.com/bb_friedchicken.htm

has more information about the film and the story of Miss Lewis.

Sincerely,
Bailey Barash

This looks delicious. I might be the only southerner who prefers a sweet cornbread!
