I think the world would be a happier place if everyone sat down for a snack of cornbread (not that crappy stuff out of a box) and sweet tea every night at 8 p.m.
I spent a coupla weeks in New Orleans about ten years back and one of the many things I loved about it was the food. I can cook a pretty mean jambalaya now, and my cornbread is, if I may say, pretty special.
My tip for a great breakfast treat - make cornbread as you usually would, but add some finely chopped hot chillis (not too much, just enough for 'warmth' as opposed to 'burn'). Now, leave it a day, and then cut it and toast it. Eat buttered with organic honey, and a cup of tea.
..well, yeah, if one LIKED cornbread. sweet tea, hell yeah, but how 'bout somethin' else...
ReplyDeleteI do like cornbread around corny dogs though. I'm weird like that.
and your stories below made me giggle. you goof. yeah, takes one to know one...
