On this episode of “What’s Cooking?” Chef Merry makes some cornbread. This is perhaps the simplest & quickest recipe we’ve done yet, and can be paired with many meals. We actually paired this with a chili, which we also made!
Many cornbread recipes will call for oil, but we decided to use butter instead to get a little extra flavor. We also spread a little bit of butter on top before cutting into the cornbread. Essentially, we like butter with this.
Please note that this is the one of several episodes filmed with an iPhone & minimal equipment during the COVID-19 pandemic.
