  1. Sorry, but this cornbread turned out extremely dense and dry. After reading other recipes, perhaps it's because there's no baking powder or soda? I don't know, but no one in my family liked this because it was so dry.
     
  2. Tried this recipe for the first time tonight, and it was the best cornbread I've ever made. I put 1 1/2 tablespoons of shortening in the skillet, and got it hot enough that the batter sizzled when I poured it in. It made the crust good and crunchy! It was a hit!
