Flo's Southern Fried Cornbread

This is my mother's recipe for cooking good “ole” southern fried cornbread. Nothing goes better with southern cooking then cornbread. This cornbread complements beans, greens, fish and most everything else. This cornbread is not sweet like most cornbread you will find in restaurants. I have always preferred non-sweet cornbread. It just tastes better.

This will make about 6 – 3” to 4” diameter size pieces of cornbread about   1 / 2” thick.
Ingredients:

  • Self rising cornmeal : 2 / 3 cup.
  • Self rising flour: 1 / 3 cup.
  • Baking powder: 1 teaspoon.
  • Milk – whole or skim; whole is best: 1 / 2 cup.
  • Salt- optional: A dash.
  • Vegetable oil: 2 teaspoons to start, more added as cornbread cooks.
  • Frying pan: 9” is a good size, non-stick.
Mix cornmeal, flour, baking powder, milk and optional salt in a bowl using a spoon. Put the pan on about medium heat, add 2 teaspoons of oil and allow to heat, then spoon drop mix into pan. It is basically like making a small pancake. The oil should be hot enough for the cornbread to sizzle when you drop it in the pan. If you want thinner cornbread, just add a little more milk to the mix. A 9” pan will let you cook about three pieces at one time. As they cook, add just a little oil, 1 to 2 teaspoons, so they continue to sizzle and fry. You want to cook them to a nice crunchy golden brown, flipping them several times. When finished, place on a paper towel on a plate. Serve with butter. Very, very good!

Review of Crocs Men's Modi Flip Flops

Review of Crocs Men's Modi Flip Flops As a result of an injury and suffering from Plantar Fasciitis and a heel spur, I needed some comfortable flip flops that offered support and heel comfort.  I previously had some Croc knock-off, slip on shoes and they felt comfortable, so I did some online research, reading reviews about various Croc shoes, and determined that the Croc Modi Flip was highly regarded. I went to my local sports store and tried on half a dozen flip flops to see which were the most comfortable, comparing them to the Modi Flip, and determined I like the Modi the best as they seemed to provide the best comfort for my heel. As an added bonus they have nice foot massage bumps. I first bought size 11 thinking it fit the best, but once at home, sitting and walking in the house, I decided they were a little snug across the top of my foot, so I exchanged them for size 12. They fit perfect, not too tight when sitting in a chair, yet snug enough when walking. ...

Collection of Bannock Recipes- Campfire Cooking

Collection of Bannock Recipes Bannock is a very old and simple bread that is easily made and simple to cook. It's great for outdoor campfire cooking, either in a pan or wrapped on a stick. Wrapped around a stick is how I cooked it. If cooking on a stick, be sure not to make it too thick as it will take longer to cook or tend to cook too much on the outside, leaving the inside a bit doughy. Below, I have gathered together a collection of bannock recipes from the internet. Pick one and give it a try! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ingredients 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 cup blueberries or whatever you'd like - raisins, cranberries, dried fruits Water Oil, for frying or grilling Directions Mix the dry ingredients and berries, then slowly mix in enough water to make a stiff dough.
