hot water cornbread
WARNING: I do everything by eye....a pinch here, a smidgeon there...I just throw it all in a bowl and guesstimate.
Ya make 'em kinda like pancakes in a cast iron skillet on the stove and it doesn't heat the house up as much as baking.
Boil at least a cup of water in the microwave
Put about 1 to 2 cups of self-rising cornmeal in a bowl. Add 1 beaten egg and mix thoroughly. Then you add the boiling water in bits, slowly mixing it until the right consistency....not thin like pancakes.... kinda like what you would make for regular cornbread almost.
Heat skillet with about 1/8 to 1/4 inch oil heated med to med/hi.... then use a good sized serving spoon to dollop the mixture into the pan. Watch carefully and try not to burn
DO NOT, under any circumstances use jiffy mix.
After 25 years I've finally gotten it nearly right (darn Yankee that I am). Happy vows tomorrow!
I like an inside water fountain or a water wall. Saw it on

boiled eggs
Once I mentioned I liked boiled eggs. Everyone was so mad at me, there were 36 sitting in the middle of the table at dinner! Eat up!
What about boiled peanuts? I am...
not originally from the south either and cannot for the life of me figure out why anyone would eat these things (yes, I tried them once).
Emeril Legasse taught me about hard-boiled eggs
Emeril says to put the eggs in the pot with the cold water, and wait for it to boil, when it's a rolling boil, shut off the stove, and cover the pot for 13 minutes - and voila!! Perfect hard-boiled eggs!!
*S*
Yes! The simpler the better, to me. Hellman's mayo, chicken breast boiled, cut up sm
just add as much mayo as you'd like - I don't use that much. Salt, pepper, and cut up red or green grapes gives it a little tang and sweetness. It's the first to go every single time at a party.
Also, be creative with the breads you use - kaiser rolls, french bread, etc.
Thanks for reminding me. I am going to boil some chicken right now and have that for lunch!
If they are boiled in crab boil and nice and spicy they are delish!
Love 'em.
Do you have really hard water? Maybe leaving water spots from lime, calcium, etc.? Or are the spots

I really like sweet tea and cornbread!
I would love to go to every part of this awesome country of ours and taste the different foods from all the different places!
I don’t like the sweet cornbread, my
daughter does. She likes that Jiffy stuff, yuck!
No sweet cornbread, never!

No sugar in my cornbread - just in my tea!

I've only had cornbread twice....
The first time when I was a kid and my mom tried making (bland New England palate here) it. It was so dry and yucky I swore I'd never eat any ever again.
About 10 years ago a co-worker made cornbread to go with lasagne (she's 1/2 black 1/2 italian and a 100% spitfire!) and OH MY GOSH it was soooo good! She had like this layer of sugar on top that was kinda melted and it was so moist...I could've eaten that whole pan myself. I asked her for the recipie but she said something like, "Ancient family secret" or some such thing to bum me out. Cornbread with lasagne. Never had it since and probably never will. :( I wicked miss her but yeah, she made one heck of a cornbread and that sweet style certainly suited my tastebuds!
one of my fav cornbread receipes
(i lived in the south 20 yr but Cal-bred and raised) included creamed corn, cheese, and i think salsa (its been awhile since i made it). But my hubby likes it not made sweet but in a bowl with milk and sugar.
Yum! I did that yesterday with cornbread stuffing

I like sweet cornbread, like how my sourthern

True cornbread- you and I are alike
on that. Have had all my life and never put cranberries in it. My aunt was just saying the other day she could taste her mother's dressing, rest her sweet soul. It was so good, put sausage in hers along with the cornbread, of course, no white bread filler.
I use Jiffy cornbread and it is SO good (sm)
and the other stuff, celery, onions, sage, but never did the cranberries. I might try that next time. I do make fresh cranberry sauce though. It's SO easy and it is the best.
Back to the cornbread dressing, I've always gotten raves over it. One of my daughter's frends said he didn't like stuffing, wouldn't even eat his mom's, but took a taste of the CB stuffing and had seconds! Ya'll ought to try it ;-)

We are having chilli and cornbread. YUMMY!!!!! nm

Totally agree, cornbread, milk, egg
Never added sweet unless cookies, brownies, cakes, pies- all those got sweets.
My new favorite is Vidalia onion cornbread sm
Vidalia Onion Cornbread (from Paula Deen)
1 box Jiffy corn muffin mix
1/2 stick butter
1 large Vidalia or other sweet onion, chopped
1 egg, beaten
1/3 cup whole milk
1 cup sour cream
1 cup grated Cheddar cheese, divided
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp dill weed (which I leave out)
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Spray an 8-inch square baking pan with vegetable oil cooking spray. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and saute the onion until tender, but not browned, for about 3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and add the muffin mix, egg, milk, sour cream, 1/2 cup of the cheese, the salt, and dill weed. Stir to combine. Pour into the prepared pan and top with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese. Bake for 30 minutes, until set and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cornbread comes out clean. Allow to cool slightly before cutting into squares.
I double the recipe and bake it in a 9x13 or even 11x15 pan and it comes out great. And to keep the cheese from getting too dark, I add it the last 10 minutes instead of at the beginning. So yummy!
Second favorite is corn casserole, very similar to the onion cornbread.
Corn Casserole
1 pkg Jiffy corn muffin mix
8 oz sour cream
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 egg
1 can whole kernel corn (do not drain)
1 can cream-style corn
1 stick of butter
Melt the butter in an 8x8 baking dish in a 400-degree oven. Meanwhile, mix the corn muffin mix, juice from whole kernel corn, egg, and sour cream until well mixed. Add remaining ingredients and pour into dish with butter. Stir slightly to mix in the butter. Bake 30-45 minutes or until set in the middle.
Again, I have doubled this recipe and baked in a 9x13 pan; however, do not double the butter or it is too greasy.
Ugh, which is why I don't eat meat or
questionable meat-by-products.
but how does it change the meat?
By the way--cattle are slaughtered past the age of two. When old cull cows are made into hamburger, they add back fat from younger cattle because the fat on the older cows is yellow and people would not eat it. I also know that cattle eat things other than grass. We still graze cattle on grass land and manage our pastures well. (Western states also have public grazing land and some even graze the desert.)It is only cost effective to the cow-calf producers who do not feed grain. Slapping a grass-fed tag on beef and calling it a niche market makes it more expensive for the consumer and is controversial to me. Feed lots do not keep cattle off of grass land. We must keep in mind that this country must manage beef somehow because of how much we consume and export. Beef is a valuable commodity and a big business. If it could be handled in a way that was more cost effective, it would be.
Thank goodness I don't eat meat! ugh...

Not around here, and glad.....I don't *do* meat scraps! lol

What's the best cut of meat for homemade philly...
steak subs? Our family loves them and we usually buy the frozen philly cheese steak meat...but I just can't stomach the smell of it even cooking anymore because it is sooooo greasy. I want to try to make some homemade from a fresh cut of meat. Any suggestions? Thanks!!

I caught the blues when trying to eat the red meat
because husband is a health food junkie and I think sometimes he expects the same of me. I love steak but hardly eat-are shrimp bad for someone who has high cholesterol? He eats fish- I don’t care for- fish is fish is fish to me- all taste alike except for the shrimp with the sauce and horse radish in it- yummy! My physician when I mentioned about my cholesterol told me to tell hubs to leave alone- mine was excellent and I could eat most anything. So there, man of the house!!
Too afraid of meat in restaurants now sm
Their meat may be old (sorry). If we do go, will only go to very busy place as even some bought at market are questionable. We have gift certificates which we appreciate as they are from busy places. Sometimes we have a "UFO" party. Unidentified freezer objects - if they're too old we throw them out. Buying light these days.Takes common sense, hopefully things will turn around in ཅ but for now I am being extremely careful and not loading up on meat either unless we intend to eat it soon. Perhaps I'm too cautious but things are rough right now for everyone, even the markets, restaurants, etc. I sure hope the turkeys are okay, even in good times we've gotten "bad ones" - have to open them up and be sure. Martha likes to brine hers in salt water - not a bad idea these days to check them out before it's too late the day of or the day before. Fresh is best - wish we had our own farm as some do.
How easy would it be for you to give up meat?
All forms of meat - beef, pork, chicken, venison....and anything else I'm missing.
It wouldn't be too hard for me.
me hungry... me eat meat....arghhh
One time I ate a beef rib and got an artery. That made me so sick. Yet, I did not stop eating meat. I have seen a deer gutted in my front yard and it did make me sick, but I ate him. I saw how they treat chickens and blah blah blah, but I still eat MEAT. I must be some kind of psycho! Nope, just human. We need protein. I just have to lay off the cow. Although I will say that I am picky and will not eat fat, arteries, skin, or anything else that just isnt pure meat.
Do you eat hot dogs? meat scraps, pig lips, etc.

Sort of - I generlly buy some hamberger meat, and whatever - sm
is on sale and bring it home for 2 or 3 days worth of meals. My DH does 95% of the cooking. We generally buy what is on sale, whole chickens, thighs/breasts, pork chops, have tacos, I do pot roasts now and then. My mom used to make out a weekly list every Wednesday or so, and do the weekly shopping Thursday after work. We would drop about $100, this was in the late 80s/through 90s. My DH is actually better at shopping than I am and comes home with a lot for $50. Scan the food ads and plan around them, best way (and cheapest) way to do it.
Again, the end times. I'm sorry, but what other explanation is there? Steroids in our meat? I don

looking for a spagetti sauce recipe without meat.
Does anyone have a tomato sauce recipe without meat? The only reciipe I have calls for ground up beef. I am serving chicken cutlets and spagetti on the side. My DD inlaws to be is coming to dinner so I want it to be perfect.
Sauce can be for crockpot or stove.
Thanks. I always enjoy the recipes on this board.
Cracklins have a little more meat attached, only difference.

This veg head never uses meat in stuffing, or chicken broth. nm

My SIL makes it this way and the meat basically falls off of the bone.
I know that once she gets the pork seasoned, she puts in a small roasting pan and then sets it in a "bano maria" at 250 degrees like for 10-12 hours depending on the size. I will see if I can get the recipe from her. As far as the seasoning, it all depends which way you want it, for Cuban style mojo seasoning, it can be bought already made in a bottle at the grocery's store in the international food section, probably Goya brand. Then, there is the other seasoning with the oregano, salt, vinegar, garlic, black pepper, and olive oil.
Could be gallbladder, maybe diabetes. Cut out the meat and fats for a few days and

Some folks just take for granted that they can walk into a market and shop for meat...We've done the same for similar reasons as you and nothing was wasted. At least you're self sufficient!!! And, I bet you've put up/canned/frozen all the vegetables from the summer/fall harvest.

and they are cooked in salted water - some are not. They have a crusty-hard outside and a moist middle. And they're huge. They really are the best! :)
Ice Water, sm
Soak apples in ice water and a little salt. Kabobs would be a great idea but not sure about the wooden skewers.
no where to put the water?
ever consider the toilet? Lot's of other nasty stuff goes down ther:)
