I love cooking, but am a little embarrassed that I do love & only make the Jiffy cornbread. I add oil & some sugar & make muffins.i love crumbled cornbread muffins in chili! I may give your recipe a try though ; )
Note how the Chili garlic melds with the Sweet Hoisin...
Add fresh herbs, bean sprouts, Splash of lime...
You get my general drift
I could live on Pho, but lately it has been Arby’s Gyros.
(Not bad) not great.
I remember seeing a documentary about the company, and the man who founded it. I can’t seem to find it now, but this relates:

I wish I were closer ;-)
Rooster sauce!
I’ve used this recipe with Jiffy several times. It is really great when it comes out of the oven, but if you’re going to serve the leftovers, I suggest steaming it over a rack; and you could add some sauteed jalapenos to make it really special ;-)
Extreme Corn Bread
1 T vegetable shortening (or other method of greasing the pan)
8-1/2 oz. box of Jiffy Corn Bread mix
1 Cup Sour Cream (plus additional for garnish)
1 stick unsalted butter, softened
2 eggs
8-3/4 oz. can Kernel Corn, drained
8-1/4 oz. can Creamed Corn
Corn Salsa for garnish
Preheat oven to 350. Grease the bottom and sides of a 10-inch cast-iron skillet with the shortening.
In a large bowl using an electric mixer on medium speed, combine the corn bread mix, sour cream, butter and eggs until blended, about 30 seconds.
Using a spatula or wooden spoon, stir in the drained corn kernels and creamed corn until well-blended. Pour the mixture into the skillet and bake 40 to 45 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
It’s suggested to serve it with a dollop of sour cream and a spoonful of corn salsa.
We do that dinner once a month :)
Email me one of those loaded baked potatoes...

Watchoo want on it?
Bacon and cheese and sour cream.

That sounds so good. Alas my husband has an irrational hatred of corn. He picked out all of the corn from his soup today. So plain cornbread is as close as he gets. I will fantasize about eating your gourmet version though.....sigh.
I totally remember those Mexican meals! It was so exotic & exciting as a kid when we would have them. I love this thread for many reasons, one of which is the nostalgia factor.
Sending you heartfelt condolences, Klemper. I am so sorry.
Here is an old skillet cornbread recipe that is dairy.
Cornbread
1/4 cup olive oil
1 cup coarse cornmeal
1 TBS sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
1 cup buttermilk OR 2/3 yogurt, 1/3 milk
1 egg
1. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Pour the olive oil into an iron skillet and put into oven while mixing the other ingredients
2. Mix together all the dry ingredients. Then add the egg and buttermilk
3. Take the pan from the oven and pour the oil into the batter and mix, then pour the batter into the pan and bake 20 minutes.
This is the cornbread recipe I use most: it’s vegan so we can enjoy it with meat.

It makes a whole 9x13 pan full. There is a little sugar in it but you can use less. It’s not sweet (but my family sometimes puts honey on it).
Wow, what an interesting flavor addition.
There used to be a burger place in Burbank that added grape jelly to their burger toppings. It was really really good and you wouldn’t know quite what it was, in that scenario.
I’m sure you’ve done this, one of my late Dad’s favorites: a big scoop of good vanilla ice cream, and, heated to nice and warm, frozen mixed berries over the top.
Yeah, baby. Dream meal right there.
I liked the Chun King Chow Mein dinner, too - it came in two cans stuck together. I think you can still buy it, but it’s called La Choy. ;-)
Klemper, sorry for your lose.
The secret to cornbread is simple.
Look at the packaged mixes. If any of the ingredients is “sugar” it isn’t cornbread. If “flour” is listed before “cornmeal”, it isn’t cornbread.
If they have no sugar and less flour than cornmeal they’ll probably be pretty good.
Morrison Milling makes a great packaged mixed. Especially if you ad a pinch of cayenne to the batter.
If it says, “Jiffy” on the front of the box it isn’t cornbread.
