CHEDDAR DILL CORNBREAD (INA GARTEN) ( BAREFOOT CONTESSA)



Cheddar Dill Cornbread (Ina Garten) ( Barefoot Contessa) image

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

Time 1h5m

Yield 1 piece of cornbread, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons baking powder
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 cups milk
3 extra-large eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 lb unsalted butter, melted, plus extra to grease the pan
8 ounces aged extra-sharp white cheddar cheese, grated, divided
1 cup minced fresh dill

Steps:

  • Combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. In separate bowl, combine the milk, eggs, and butter. With a wooden spoon, stir the wet ingredients into the dry until most of the lumps are dissolved. Don't overmix!
  • Mix in 2 cups of the grated Cheddar and the dill, and allow the mixture to sit at room temperature for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9 by 13 by 2-inch baking pan.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top, and sprinkle with the remaining grated Cheddar.
  • Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool and cut into large squares.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Use fresh corn for 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.
  • Be sure to drain the corn well before adding it to the batter. This will prevent the cornbread from being too wet.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the cornbread tough.
  • Bake the cornbread in a hot oven. This will help the cornbread to rise and get a crispy crust.
  • Let the cornbread cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help the cornbread to set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Cheddar dill cornbread is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. It's also a great snack or appetizer. With its cheesy, flavorful crumb and distinct dill aroma, cheddar dill cornbread is a true crowd-pleaser. Whether you're looking for a classic Southern side dish or something new and exciting to try, cheddar dill cornbread is sure to satisfy.
