Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Combine 4 cups of flour, the baking powder, and salt in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Add the butter and mix on low speed until the butter is in pea-sized pieces. Mix the eggs and heavy cream and quickly add them to the flour-and-butter mixture. Combine until just blended. Toss together the Cheddar, dill, and 1 tablespoon of flour and add them to the dough. Mix until they are almost incorporated.
- Dump the dough onto a well-floured surface and knead it for 1 minute, until the Cheddar and dill are well distributed. Roll the dough 3/4-inch thick. Cut into 4-inch squares and then in half diagonally to make triangles. Brush the tops with egg wash. Bake on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for 20 to 25 minutes, until the outside is crusty and the inside is fully baked.
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
