Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 1/2 cups cornmeal

1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour -- or unbleached

white flour

1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

2 eggs -- well beaten, or equivalent vegan egg

replacer

1 1/2 cups buttermilk -- or soured soy milk

1 cup grated Cheddar cheese -- reduced-fat if

desired, or grated soy Cheddar-style cheese

1 (1 to 2) jalapeno peppers -- seeded and

minced, or 1 4-oz. can chopped mild green chiles

1/2 cup cooked fresh corn kernels -- optional

2 tablespoons melted whipped butter or natural canola

margarine -- or vegan margarine

 

Preheat the oven to 400ºF.

 

Combine the first 5 ingredients in a mixing bowl and stir together.

In another bowl, beat the eggs, then stir in the buttermilk. Add the

wet mixture to the dry and stir together vigorously until well

blended.

 

Stir in the grated cheese, jalapeños, and optional corn kernels.

Pour the melted butter or margarine into a shallow, 9-x-9-inch baking

pan and swirl it around to coat the bottom and sides. Pour the

excess butter or margarine into the batter and stir it in.

 

Pour the batter into the pan. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until

the top is golden and a knife inserted into the center tests clean.

Allow the bread to cool in the pan, then cut into 12 or more squares

to serve.

NOTES : " This is a Texan and Southwestern version of corn bread. . .

For real chile-heads, make this with the jalapeños to produce an

incendiary bread. For those of you who are wary of breads that must

be eaten with a fire extinbuisher, do use milder chiles. Either way,

this is a richly flavored treat. "
