It was the depression. We had a small farm with such good soil that we could grow anything planted. We had potatoes, corn, beets, turnips, broccoli, cauliflower, and lots of good things. We had an orchard with trees laden with apples, pears, plums, and cherries. We had a few cows that gave us milk to drink. […] -

WOW – I never thought to put buttermilk in cornbread. I bet that is just d-e-l-i-c-i-o-u-s! Maybe someone can share one of their ‘secret’ recipes for cornbread makin’ – save me from the “Back of the Box” recipe! Would love to learn more. Happy farming!

Hi CindyP! I thought the yogurt actually make the bread moist but more crumbly. I wouldn’t hesitate to use it again – I almost always have yogurt but often run out of milk! Happy farming!

I love cornbread. In fact, everyone here loves cornbread. What’s not to love? Cornbread is so easy to make. I don’t even bother with those ‘just add water’ mixes. However, there is something you must have to make delicious cornbread–a cast iron skillet. You will just have to trust me here and take a leap of faith. […] -
