This cornbread was very promising because it used so little sugar and only 2T of flour. I even soaked my corneal longer than suggested. My family was really excited to eat this as an accompaniment to the chile I made. One bite, and I thought something was wrong. I followed the recipe to the T. It was dry and gritty. So disappointed because of the time and effort I put into it. I’m sorry to say that this was a fail for us. -
For me this is Wow!! I am ditching the other corn bread recipes and keeping only this one on hand. This is my favorite cornbread recipe because it uses such a tiny bit of flour. Majority of recipe is cornmeal. What a difference in flavor and texture. Serve with sweetened butter ( just a dab) and in my opinion, you have the truly perfect cornbread. Love, Love, Love this!!! -
Yum!!!! Delicious!!! And so wonderfully moist! -
I want to take this corn bread recipe down the alter and marry it. It was good and very easy to make. I want to eat the whole pan to myself. I put some yummy butter and honey on it and it made my whole day. -
Sorry, but this recipe was not to my liking at all. To much cornmeal and I found it to be to dry.

I am a proud mother of three healthy boys aged 15,11 and 5. I'm originally from the tiny island of Bermuda and have been living in Edinburgh since July 2005.
I've been collecting recipes since I was about 14 or 15 and been cooking and baking since then as well.
I love all kinds of crafts also. In my spare time if I'm not in the kitchen; I crochet, make jewelry, bead, knit, sew, cross stitch, do plastic canvas and quilt. I have a short attention span, so I have plenty of different craft choices when I get bored of doing something. Oh, and I also like to read, listen to music, fiddle with any electronic gadget, collect dvd's and watch them, and I'm an internetaholic! :-) I keep a craft blog at http://hobbyzu.blogspot.com and I sell my crocheted items and patterns at http://hobbyzu.com. I keep pretty busy and being self employed gives me more time to explore cooking! :-)
I'm mostly interested in cook books featuring regular old home cooking and favorites. When I moved to the UK I had to get rid of my cookbook collection. I did keep all my Bermudian cookbooks, charity cookbooks and 'The Foods of Israel Today' and Better Homes and Gardens 'Hometown Favorites'.

I am most passionate when it comes to my family and caring for them. Getting to feed them is an added bonus! Lucky for me, my boys are steadily growing pigs with bottomless pits for stomachs! lol :-)
