There’s nothing more satisfying than a cup of warm chili with a slice of rich cornbread on the side. Our cornmeal makes a wonderful loaf that doesn’t crumble, and our recipe has never failed us. It’s so easy, you don’t need any special tools or mixers. Just a bowl and a spoon or fork. If you want to try something new, drizzle with local honey on top, or fold fresh kernels of corn, a can of green chiles, or berries into the batter.
