I just tried this recipe from Bon Appetit. I served it with Ozark Brown Beans. What a great meal! Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups buttermilk |
3 large eggs |
1/3 cup chopped fresh basil |
2 cups yellow cornmeal |
1 cup all-purpose flour |
1/2 cup sugar |
4 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup chilled unsalted butter, diced |
1 1/2 cups fresh corn kernels (from 3 ears) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Butter 9x9x2 metal baking pan.
3. Whisk buttermilk, eggs, and basil in large bowl. Blend cornmeal and next 4 ingredients in processor 5 seconds. Add 1/2 cup butter; blend until coarse meal forms. Add corn kernels. Using 8 on and off turns, blend until kernels are coarsely chopped. Stir dry ingredients into buttermilk mixture; transfer to pan.
4. Bake cornbread until golden on top and tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Cool 20 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
