In Florida for the sunshine and sand - no sunshine, there is sand, and lots of cold cold rain and clouds. Are you feeling sorry for me? George is restless. Betty has been cooking - here is a recipe for corn bread. Go on, rush out and buy some corn meal! If you have a wheat intolerance, it is good to go!
First, take a bowl and mix 8oz (sorry about the ounces, I am after all, a 1950's housewife!) corn meal, 8oz plain flour,(could be Rye or Oat) 1 tbsp sugar, 1 tsp salt, 1 tbsp baking powder. Whish (Betty's word) it all together and in a separate bowl, mix 10 fl oz milk, 2 eggs and 2 tbsp oil together and add to the dry mix. Place in a greased loaf tin and bake at 425 degrees for about 15 to 20 minutes. Yes, I know it is supposed to be cooked in an Aga, but I am in Florida and they look very confused when I ask them if they know what an Aga is! It is a lovely light bread and easily digested. George loves it with butter and jam, but then, he is naturally thin and I have to miss out the butter....
