Corn Bread Recipe - Rough Times Cooking

[epoppinbazz]

I'm smellin' me some cornbread.

[snaps81625]

You ought to make some more videos.. we are headed for rough times and we need people liek you giving us great info!

[DzzRed]

Well, I learned something new. Don't over stir your cornbread...."The less you stir it, the more tender it is"....never knew.

U R a blessing!!!

[56runningdeer]

The way she made it sounds a lot like something my mother used to make years ago called " Batter Bread"

[56runningdeer]

I'm 55 years old and from the deep South and have Never seen cornbread made like that... Down here we have more cornmeal and less flour in our cornbread...It would have been made backwards with the flour and cornmeal she used... hey, may be good

[Cyntia1222]

yum i want cornbread please

[loveableyorkies]

Love it! Would you amke a video on biscutes.... :0)

[1lovemocha]

Hi hi! Have you considered intellectus diet (do a google search for intellectus424dietcom)? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my work buddy lost crazy amounts of weight with it.

[foxolita]

hi, i really like your videos, and this in particular, as i can see Wally anytime i want. we've been friends since we were little kids! thank you!

[harlzoo]

i wish i was her neighbor!

[queenbunny76]

Hi Willi I was hoping that you would give me permission to use your videos as a cooking curriculum for my son who I home school.

[Moonlightrealgirl]

:3 yum. I love Gramma Willi she's so wise and sassy! ^_^

[dieselmac]

just ask the dairy farmers what milk they drink.off the record.they have to make a living from the big companies.

[Finnyo]

yer auld one man

[samkavaman1980]

Loves it!

[mtbluzman]

Well you must be in Ontario & can't get organic milk! Cheers on the great recipe!!

[brianwaynewhite]

@mtbluzman Willi's actually in New Brunswick. There's lots of organic milk in Ontario, where I live. I think her point was that you can't buy direct from a farmer, who's practices you know. Instead, it's a controlled industry and you're forced to buy it where everyone else does.

[mtbluzman]

@brianwaynewhite Wasn't there a guy around Newmarket recently having a battle to sell organic milk. I remember hearing about it

[cooksalot1]

What?! No ORGANIC MILK! That is just wrong. We're lactose intolerant in this house, but if you drink milk and chose organic that should be your choice.

[reptaryay]

@cooksalot1 soy milk!

[huguenot67]

Ma'am, I don't know you. But after this video I'm pretty sure I love you. :-)

[GrammaWilli]

@huguenot67 aww, gee, wow! and I love YOU!

[kristinarusgrl]

you are the best more recipys plz

[IamKris411]

This is a great video! I'm going to make this! (that is - in case I can find corn meal in Germany lol... I'm sure I'll get ahold of it somewhere)

[GrammaWilli]

@IamKris411 Spanish, Caribbean, Italian, African and Mexican food stores should all carry cornmeal... happy eating!

[thepoint08]

THAT BOWL !!!! That's the bigger of the set of 4: yellow, green, red, and blue.

Great recipe too. Thanks a ton. KD.

[Poisonfrogg]

2010 is the year 2 say no to white!!

to send a msg that we dont want bleached flour, rice, or pasta. or chemicals in our food

try 2 use as much whole wheat products as you can

[katalahary]

I´m gonna try doing it with Soymilk!

[roughtimescooking]

great idea. i've done that... love it! thanks for sharing. (Brian)

[acmulhern]

i love you, you are just soo cool!

as for the organic milk issue, i am absolutely behind you. it's disgusting how the little people who want to do what they believe is right get abused by the big corporations. but one day this will all change, i am sure of it!

your cornbread looks so yummy btw!

[AlapahaBlueBlood]

i made this today and was disappointed with the outcome - dry and flat.

[crystalflaiz]

could have been your baking powder was out of date-just a thought

[GrammaWilli]

@crystalflaiz About baking powder, it doesn't keep all that well, better to buy smaller quantities. Old baking soda can sometimes be helped by using double the recipe amount and adding 1/2 tsp. or so of baking soda... my mom would sour some milk with a little vinegar to help her quick breads to rise.

[JenniMystic]

does it work out if I use whole wheat flour?Asking because I already make my own bread, might as well just use the same type of flour.

[roughtimescooking]

@JenniMystic Hi, this is Brian. I can't speak for Willi, but normally I only have WW Flour in my cupboard, as well. I find it does work well... could use a little extra water, and it's best if eaten the first day... but next day is just fine, too.

[JenniMystic]

thanks.

[GrammaWilli]

@roughtimescooking I usually use unbleached white flour for corn bread. I have used whole wheat, the texture wasn't what I wanted... have to get Brian to let me try some of his!

[GrammaWilli]

@roughtimescooking I actually prefer soft whole wheat flour in my banana bread. That said, if picky eaters used to processed food happen to visit, I'll use half unbleached white flour to make the texture more familiar to them... most people don't know the difference, however.

[UniqueExposures]

awesome video reminds me of my grandmothers way of doing it. looks awesome!

[DanceParis]

Wonderful video.

I will try this Gramma Willi. Lord knows I'm on a tight budget these day. My people are from the south as well, my grandma and greataunt use eggs - would never imagine not using them. I am so glad you showed this recipe without the eggs, I am vegan.

Thanks again.

[Sinki27]

Chill GrammaWilli. Your uptight, I can see. Loosen off a bit and let go. You can't change the outside world. I bet you cause mischief everywhere you go. Peace to you, I send you a cuddle and thankyou for beans and cornbread.

[GrammaWilli]

@Sinki27 Musta got uptight lookin at those Alex Jones stories on your channel. Thanks for the cuddles and glad you like the beans and cornbread; just made some myself the other day. Peace

[podgida]

My grandmothers was a little flacker, good stuff with pintos and hamhock, Hmm good. Can you make apple pan doughty(spelling?) ?

[GrammaWilli]

My Mom taught me to make something that sounded like 'apple pan dowty'... dough from a sweet bannock recipe on top of apples, sugar and spice. We had to watch it to make sure the apples didn't get too dried out and burned (a little water)... I think that some call this cobbler.

[marymandy9]

delicious!

[roughtimescooking]

Awesome! Thanks for letting us know how it worked out! Pea Soup and Corn Bread... mmmmmm! Thanks for subscribing, too!

[marymandy9]

Need I say the cornbread (your recipe) was a hit around the table last night ... so good with the soup, especially in the bottom of the bowl to sop up every bit of goodness.

Thanks again.

[goodmanfan]

Lived in the south all my life. Ate cronbread everyday. Never heard of making it with water!!! We put Sweet milk or buttermilk. NEVER put sugar! Sugar go in cake. Why would you put more flour than cornmeal??????

[siriusgateaux]

Salt/Sugar is the main difference between Southern cornbread (salty) and the ones people make in the North (sweeter).

[GrammaWilli]

Cornbread has been a staple food for thousands of years, from pemmican to tortillas to 'southern' and 'northern' styles. I make it the way my loved ones like it, try it - maybe you will too!

[Dorkneetah]

This is helpful! Can't wait to make some

[nuttybar9]

its good with pinto beans too.

[roughtimescooking]

Thanks! Great Suggestion.

[GrammaWilli]

yes! pinto, kidney and red beans, even a little shredded cheese with a few chili peppers and sun-dried tomatoes give a nice South-West flavor. sometimes I make it sweet and add chopped strawberries... so many ways to make cornbread exciting... thanks for stopping by - and stay tuned! Much love, Gramma Willi

[booku4]

I have never made cornbread with water. but i will try it. have you ever fried it?

[GrammaWilli]

It was years before I tried milk in cornbread. Now I usually use 1/2 and half. You'll find that cornbread with only water has more of a 'corny' taste - and it can be served to vegans.

About frying, I've used cornmeal in pancakes, makes a nice change. I do, however, love browning leftover cornbread in the frying pan - what a nice flavor! Thanks for your comments, Gramma Willi

[Beepinsqueekin]

Gramma, you are a doll! I grew up on a poor farm in middle Iowa (Im 52) & we raised our own chickens & momma made everything from scratch. Nothing better than Navy Bean soup & corn bread. Im teaching my kids how things were done before all these unhealthy fastfood places cropped up. This summer we learned about foraging for wild greens,dandelions and lambquarters.The Universe put FREE greens in our yards & pastures, we need to use them as they are so good for us.  Keep these videos coming!

[GrammaWilli]

Beepinsqueekin, thank you for the kind words. It's really good to hear that you're teaching your kids how things can be done simple and healthy. I'd love to learn your wild food recipes, send 'em on over, willya? We'll get more videos to ya soon as Brian can get his head back to the editing room. Love, GW.

[ossiechamorro]

It looks great. I will try at home. thaks for sharing the video with us. I have seen people using milk instead of water and some people using whole corns ears.

[putyomoneyup]

great corn bread recipe. do you guys have a tv show or something? this is great.

[GrammaWilli]

Oooh yes, we're fixin' to get a tv show for ya right now. Keep that good energy.

[Remy85601]

That was really enjoyable to watch, she such as high spirited person.

[GrammaWilli]

Hey People, Thanks for all the positive comments. It feels great to get so much love back, makes me want to work even better. Keep those comments coming!

Love, Peace, Frybread grease, Gramma Willi

[fibrefoxx]

Awesome! She makes it look so easy....and good! If she has a recipe for chilli to go with the corn bread, I'd like to try that too. I'll watch for it. =)
