Grandma's Cornbread

Submitted by jlotterer

"This is one of those old southern recipes handed down from generation to generation. My grandmother never measured anything, but this is just about as precise as I can get. This cornbread is made with white cornmeal, and has a slightly salty taste. It goes great with a just about any southern meal, or just break it up in a big glass of milk by itself."
