Tips:

  • Use fresh cornmeal for the best flavor and texture. Fresh cornmeal is more flavorful and has a finer texture than older cornmeal. If you can't find fresh cornmeal, you can use regular cornmeal, but it may not be as flavorful.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the cornbread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cornbread in a hot oven. A hot oven will help the cornbread to rise and brown properly.
  • Let the cornbread cool slightly before serving. This will help the cornbread to set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Mississippi cornbread is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed on its own or served with a variety of dishes. It's a great way to use up leftover cornmeal, and it's also a budget-friendly option. With its slightly sweet and savory flavor, Mississippi cornbread is sure to be a hit at your next meal.
