    Being from the South, I always wondered about the " hot water" part about "Hot Water Cornbread ". For years, I was ashamed to ask what that meant, so I'd just be quiet when someone would bring it up. Now, the mystery has been solved and now, I know how to make "Hot Water Cornbread". Thanks, AB.❤.

      The country way is to run the cold water after you mix and when you pat together run the cold water on each hand and form the bread make any size you want and cook! That's the real country way. Hot water corn bread! That's the lick!

    Growing up in Compton California in the house with 13 Aunts , Uncles, and Cousins together ; Grandma only cooked hot water cornbread because it allowed her to save her eggs, milk, and butter. The hot water cornbread also allowed her to make more and stretch it. GOOD HOOD EATING 💯🖤

    I’m from SE Texas and was taught to make it with yellow cornmeal and salt, and slowly add boiling water until the meal could be shaped into a patty, or just put a spoonful of dough into hot oil. Mama would drop small spoonfuls of the batter into her greens to make cornmeal dumplings. We’d pour Louisiana hot sauce on our corn bread for a tasty treat. 😋 🤤

Just Excellent!

    Now this is the way my momma made hers, except no sugar. All the recipes I see online use baking powder, which she never used. I love the ones with extra crispy edges...umm so good. And so good with the pot liquor of beans or greens...I'm getting hungry!!
    Oh, my mother always made them into paddies vs the spoon kind, and made sure some had the browned edges she knew we loved. I'm gonna have to try the dumplings in the greens and the spoon shape, just because. Thanks for all those great memories you've reminded me of today. 🥰

    My mom was born and raised in the "South," but I have to admit, she never made this. We ate a lot of what you cook (greens, okra, pinto beans, black=eyed peas, cornbread, stewed tomatoes with bread), but she was a simple cook. She cooked her greens with bacon; cover the bottom of a 5 1/2 qt dutch oven with raw bacon, fill with water, and cook for about two hours. I don't remember her ever using smoked turkey; she used bacon or smoked ham hocks. I regret not paying closer attention.Thanks for the memories!

    Yep, how my grandma used to make it, but she would add a bit more sugar...same cornmeal. I didn't know they still made that. You must be in California 😍 Love the crispy edges. Always sipped on the pot liqueur after greens were cooked. Still do after I make cabbage.

    My absolute favorite!!! Instead of the oil pan, I was taught to just add a little of the hot oil to the cornmeal mixture, that way they don't stick.

    I suppose everyone's different. In our family we use white corn meal. When I was 10 we moved from the South to the East Coast and we could no longer get Aunt Jemima white corn meal, so we used to have people bring bags when they'd come to visit. It was a regular feature at meals maybe twice a week on average. I make it from time-to-time. My daughter loves it. We never called it "hot water cornbread" growing up. It was "fried corn bread" and then in our teens, my cousin and I started calling them corn dodgers... Didn't learn the name until I was in my 40s and went to a soul food restaurant that served them as "hot water cornbread.". Whatever you call 'em, it's one of the tastiest ways to have bread with dinner that I can imagine and if you haven't had it, I highly recommend it. Never met anyone who didn't like hot water cornbread.

    I always knew you had to boil the water for a little bit before adding it to the corneal. My mother taught me to make it, but she never added sugar. She would spoon it into the hot oil so that it was extra crunchy around the edges. It was a long time before I saw people making hot water cornbread "patties" with sugar. But I'm gonna try this with sugar added. I love your videos.
