Ingredients for Cornbread

Ingredients for Cornbread
Hi, my name is Brandon Sarkis on behalf of Expert Village. Today I'm going to be showing you how to make buttermilk cornbread as well as jalapeño buttermilk cornbread. Okay let's get started with our list of ingredients for our cornbread recipe today. Now with this, this is going to be enough ingredients to make two different small pans of cornbread. So, I'm just going to make one batch and then we'll split it, and at that point we'll go on and make the jalapeño cornbread versus the regular cornbread. So, let's see the first thing we have here is just a tablespoon of vegetable oil. We're going to use this to oil the pans so the cornbread doesn't stick to the pans. I also have, be careful so I don't spill this, two and a half cups of white cornmeal, you can use yellow for more traditional cornbread. But I like the white. It makes it a nice, nice, the whites just a little fluffier looking. I don't know, it's just a mental thing for me. I think it makes a better cornbread. I've also got one cup of all purpose flour here. Just the plain old white stuff you get at the grocery store. I've also got some salt here, I've got two teaspoons of, this is sea salt, but you can use regular iodine salt if you prefer. I have two teaspoons of baking powder as well. I have one half of a teaspoon of baking soda. Make sure you don't get those flipped otherwise it will taste really nasty, so we don't want nasty tasting cornbread. I have one cup of buttermilk. I have one cup of regular milk. This is actually two percent. You can use anything. Skim kind of screws the recipe up, so don't use skim milk to cook with. I also have two large eggs over here. If you do it with medium eggs, you might want to use two and a half, extra large, it's going to be one and a half, but two large eggs. I've got two tablespoons of melted butter right here. I just took some butter and threw it in the microwave for a second and melted it, just stick butter. So, that's everything we need to make today's recipe. Let me show you what we're going to need from equipment standpoint. So we'll be right back with that.
