Categories: Breads
Yield: 8 Servings

1 c Stone ground yellow cornmeal
1 c Unbleached white flour
1 tb Baking powder
1/4 ts Salt
1/4 ts Baking soda
1 1/2 tb Sugar
1 1/3 c Buttermilk; or
1 c Plain yogurt; mix with
1/4 c Water
1 lg Egg
2 tb Corn, canola, or peanut oil
Pam
2 tb Butter

DAIRY HOLLOW HOUSE SKILLET SIZZLED BUTTERMILK CORNBREAD. Preheat oven to
375~. In a large bowl, combine cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt, baking
soda, and sugar. (If baking powder or soda appear at all lumpy, sift them
in). Stir well to combine. In a small bowl, whisk together buttermilk, egg,
and oil. Spray a 10-1/4" skillet with Pam. Put the skillet on over medium
heat, add butter, and heat until the butter melts and is sizzling
seriously. Tilt the pan to coat the sides of the skillet. As the butter's
melting, quickly pour the wet ingredients into the dry, and, using a wooden
spoon, stir the wet and dry together with as few strokes as possible only
as many as are needed to combine the two. Don't beat it; don't smooth it
out. Scrape the batter into the hot, buttery skillet if you've gotten it
hot enough it will sizzle as it goes in and pop it in the oven immediately.
Bake until golden brown on top, about 25 minutes. Serve, hot, cut in
wedges. Yield 1 skillet or 8 large wedges. Source: Chef du Jour, Crescent
