PJB Foodie Talk Lesson: How to make Corn bread

 
The PJB foodie talk lesson is handled by Dobby of Dobbysignature - and is basically for ladies and 'guys' that are interested in learning how to cook better ;).

Food recipe for  the week is Corn bread...
Whoever invented corn bread is a total genius i tell you. Yesterday, I was searching for something new and totally different in taste from the various breads when I stumbled on this recipe.



 It could be quite difficult deciding what to have for breakfast so this definitely came in handy. Corn bread is a type of bread made with cornmeal and a mixture of other ingredients. Unlike the normal bread you're used to, it's a little bit more like crumbly cake. The taste is simply out of this world and the aroma it leaves the house with is better experienced than explained.

One of my new year resolutions is to do more baking tutorials as most of you have been requesting for so you'd definitely be seeing more of that this year especially since the first birthday celebration in the fam is coming up pretty soon. I love parties and i definitely can't wait :D. Here's a quick and easy tutorial on how to make cornbread with or without an oven.
