]]> Cornbread with its crumbly, buttery texture makes a delicious side dish to serve with soup, chilly, or even as a snack on its own. But there are also a lot of ways to experiment with this classic recipe, adding new flavors to compliment your favorite meals. Let’s take a look. 

Jalapeño Cheddar Cornbread

Give your cornbread a spicy kick by adding diced jalapeños and sharp cheddar cheese. Mix these ingredients into the batter before baking for a zesty and savory variation. The heat from the jalapeños complements the richness of the cheese. The result? Irresistibly good. 

Bacon and Maple Cornbread

Combine the smoky goodness of bacon with the sweetness of maple syrup for a Southern twist. Crisp up some bacon, crumble it into the batter, and add a generous drizzle of maple syrup. It will go perfectly as a breakfast side along with your favorite scrambled eggs. 

Cornbread Stuffing with Dried Fruits and Nuts

Transform your cornbread into stuffing by adding dried fruits like cranberries or apricots and toasted nuts. Bake the cornbread in a shallow pan, cut it into cubes, and use it as the base for flavorful stuffing that’s perfect for the holidays.

]]> We know that cornbread is a perfect barbecue side dish, but it also works great with stews, baked beans, and soups. Baking it at home is quite easy, but there are some tips you should follow if you want it to taste the best it can.

Make Sure You Use Fresh Cornmeal

When being stored for a longer time, cornmeal can become stale and rancid. This will cause the cornbread to taste off. Make sure always to use fresh cornmeal, even if you have some in the pantry.

Use Different Kinds of Cornmeal

You will find that the grocery store offers various kinds of cornmeal, from fine ground to coarse meal. They each result in different textures and flavors, so try different cornmeal to determine which one you like the best.

Don’t Use an Electric Mixer

Using an electric mixer will save you time but puts you in danger of overmixing the cornbread butter. Mixing by hand gives you more control and leaves some lumps that your cornbread will benefit from.

Consider Adding Sour Cream

Adding a scoop of sour cream can do wonders for the cornbread. It will improve the texture while keeping it moist. If you are worried about the way it will affect the taste, you can add a drop of vanilla extract to even out the flavor.

]]> Have you ever been lucky enough to attend an American-style barbecue? Meats are generally the star of these grilled meat occasions, but there are also a number of side dishes that are commonly seen as accompaniments to pork, beef, and chicken. If you want to make your own American BBQ at home, don’t forget to make these sides!

Macaroni and Cheese

Mac and cheese is a classic side that you will find alongside barbecue all around the country. Made by combining noodles, butter, and cheese, this is a choice that is popular with everyone at the table.

Cornbread

Serving a barbecue without cornbread sure would be strange. Made with cornmeal and resulting in a sweeter end product than typical bread or bread rolls, cornbread is especially common to find at barbecues in the American South.

Collard Greens

Another favorite from the American south is collard greens, a great option for putting a little bit of green on the table alongside the meats and carbohydrates. Made by boiling a green with spices and bacon in chicken broth, this dish isn’t hard to make and it’s packed with tons of flavor.

]]> For those of us who are gluten-sensitive or suffer from celiac disease, knowing what foods contain gluten is an absolute life-saver and a necessity.

However, many of those who are trying to cut down on gluten or eliminate it from their diets for health reasons might not be familiar with some foods that few know contain gluten. Here are some that you should keep an eye on if you’re looking to cut out gluten.

Cornbread

Cornbread, classic food in the Southern United States, has a confusing name. Despite its main ingredient being cornmeal, which doesn’t contain gluten, cornbread also typically contains wheat flour, which does contain gluten.

Soy Sauce

Did you know that one of the main components of soy sauce is wheat? Well, unfortunately, this tasty Japanese sauce contains a ton of gluten. Fortunately, there are now gluten-free versions available on the market.

Ice Cream

You really have to be careful with ice cream if you’re looking to avoid gluten. Some are gluten-free, but many others contain wheat flour or barley syrup as a thickening agent. Of course, some also contain gluten-rich ingredients like cookies or brownies. Keep a close eye on this dessert.

Meat Substitutes

There are certainly plenty of gluten-free meat substitutes on the market such as black bean burgers and tofu-based products, but some are packed with gluten. Those that contain seitan, especially, are not gluten-free.
