Buttermilk Corn Bread


This corn bread is light and was just full of corn aroma, as it should. You will taste the sweetness of the corn kernels in every bite and it was the perfect complement for the Chili con carne!


Buttermilk Corn Bread
(Printable Recipe)

Ingredients

1 Cup (180 g) Yellow Cornmeal (preferably stone ground)
½ Cup (80 g) All Purpose Flour
2 Tbsp Sugar
2 tsp Baking Powder
½ tsp Sea Salt
1 Large Egg, lightly beaten
¾ Cup (180 ml) Buttermilk
¼ Cup (60 ml) Corn Oil or Canola Oil
¾ Cup (180 ml) Corn Kernel (from tin corn, drained well)

Method

Preheat the oven to 400˚F or 200˚C.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, sea salt and mix well with a whisk.

In a smaller mixing bowl, combine the egg, buttermilk, and oil and whisk until just blended. Then pour into the dry ingredients mixture. Gently stir all the ingredients until the batter almost blended. Add the corn kernels and stir until blended.

Pour the batter into the cast iron pan (8 to 10 inches pan) and bake for about 20 to 25 minutes, or until the edges of the corn bread become golden brown in color. Remove from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Serves 6 to 8

Dumplings

I'm actually laughing at myself! What have I got into? Trying to make dumplings?? Well, I have seen my late grandmother make them a long time ago. I can remember the ingredients but not the measurements! So, it took me about two hours to come up with the perfect recipes, and I'm glad I did! It was an instant hit! They were all gone, all gobbled up! Make the dough first, add about 480 to 500g of all-purpose flour with 300ml of water. Knead the dough and let it rest. You should be able to make 40 dumplings with the dough. Meanwhile, prepare the filling for the dumplings. Click here for the dumpling wrappers video.
