Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon salt
1 cup sugar
4 tablespoons baking powder
1 cup shortening
4 cups yellow cornmeal

Combine the flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder in a large bowl. Add the
shortening and cut it in with a pastry blender (or use your mixer or food
processor for the job). Add the cornmeal last and mix it in well. Store in
an airtight container in your refrigerator. It will keep well for about 3-4
months.

YIELD: about 10 cups of dry mix

To Make Cornbread or Muffins:
Combine 2 1/2 cups of cornbread mix with 1 lightly beaten egg and 1 1/4 cups
milk. Mix until just blended (don't over-mix). Pour into greased 8-inch
square pan or muffin pan and bake at 425F for about 25 minutes (less for
muffins).
