CORN GRITS CORNBREAD



Corn Grits Cornbread image

This cornbread has a really nice texture. I started making it this way when I got some hand-me-down coarse-ground cornmeal. I think it was Bob's Red Mill brand and my grocery store had it once, but then I couldn't find it for a while. Now they carry Bob's Red Mill "Corn Grits or Polenta". I think it's the same thing.

1/2 cup cornmeal (regular)

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 cup butter, melted

Steps:

  • (Make "buttermilk" if you're going to do that, so it can sit a bit and do whatever it does that makes it buttermilky.).

GRITS CORNBREAD

I normally don't like cornbread because I have yet to find a recipe that isn't too sweet for our tastes. This one sounds like it might be the winner. From Taste of the South.

GROOVY-COLORED GRIT CORNBREAD

This is from the Grit Cookbook, featuring recipes from a famous vegetarian restaurant in Athens, Georgia. They slice through the center of each square and toast it, or butter and brown it in the skillet. You can add other veggies for additional color -- such as half a cup of chopped green onions!
