Cornbread

[Anonymous]

Do you prefer Yankee cornbread (sweet), or Southern cornbread (savory)?

Both delicious so hard to decide. I want to say Southern because I usually eat if with other savory foods. But stopping to think of how sweet cornbread tastes with savory foods, I don't remember. It also sounds tasty. Never had freah cornbread I didn't like.

Easy...make it just a little bit sweet and include some diced jalapenos. Best of both worlds.

No sugar - otherwise it tastes like cake to me.

I make Jiffy with creamed corn and a drizzle of honey. So I guess sweet, but it's not really that sweet.

I had this version once for Thanksgiving and nothing else compares for me now, has pineapple and cheddar:

I guess sweet. I don’t think I’ve had a savory cornbread. And I like it cooked in a cast iron skillet.

Savory. No sugar, no flour. Sweet is corn cake, not corn bread.

Although the distinction is not South vs North. South Carolinians tend to make sweet cornbread. Savory is found more in GA/AL/TX.

I like both. Sweet with whipped honey butter. Savory with jalapenos in it.

Grew up in TX and we had it with chili. It was savory.

Sweet only. Really don’t want cheese and/or jalapeños in it.

I like all kinds but whenever I make it, it’s too crumbly. I don’t like that.
