^^^Simple staples and simple recipes are where you appreciate the flavors of the food. I made two cakes of cornbread today by family request. In two months learned to make it better than my mom or grandmother. I built on theirs and now I'm the bread maker. Its an honor. They've made it their whole lives.
2 cups of cornmeal, 1 cup buttermilk, and a spoon of lard cost virtually nothing, but makes a full 12" skillet of bread, that can last all week. Better for you than wheat based products too. You guys want I'll throw down detailed recipe advice with pics.
I'd like to see a southern cookin' thread written by yourself. I know several great cooks from your neck of the woods.
