CHEDDAR DILL CORNBREAD (INA GARTEN) ( BAREFOOT CONTESSA)
A recipe from Ina Garten the Barefoot Contessa from the Food Network. I watched the show and had to save this recipe for safekeeping as it looks like the perfect accompaniment to soup, salad, meat or poultry dishes. It is less harsh than her jalepeno version. It looks great. It was on her Potluck episode in which she makes this and takes it to a friend. Prep time includes letting it sit at room temp per her instructions. Yum. Enjoy. ChefDLH

Tips:
- Use fresh corn. Fresh corn will give your cornbread the best flavor. If you don't have fresh corn, you can use frozen or canned corn, but the flavor will not be as good.
- Grind your own cornmeal. If you can, grind your own cornmeal. This will give you the freshest, most flavorful cornmeal. If you don't have a cornmeal grinder, you can buy cornmeal from the store.
- Use buttermilk. Buttermilk will give your cornbread a tangy flavor and a moist texture. If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your cornbread tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cornbread in a hot oven. A hot oven will help the cornbread rise and give it a crispy crust.
- Let the cornbread cool before serving. Let the cornbread cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. This will help it set and make it easier to slice.
Conclusion:
Cornbread is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. It's easy to make and can be made with a variety of ingredients. With these tips, you'll be able to make the perfect cornbread every time.
