When in doubt, throw it out.

I tested a lot of old cornbread recipes and most of them were bland or tough.

I have spent far too many years trying to make everybody like me. It's not possible. People can say or think what they want.

Most cornmeal producers dont tell you when their cornmeal was milled, which makes it difficult to know how long the product has been sitting in the store before you bought it.

I was...labelled as an advocate because...I measured something.

That said, there are certainly still cooks out there who make fantastic historical cornbreads, though the old recipes have often been changed to include modern techniques and ingredients.

My mission in life is to try and get to a point where my insides world is not affected by the outside world.
