Do You Like Cornbread with Buttermilk?

How many of you remember crumbling up cornbread into a glass of sweet milk and eating it with a spoon after supper?

This was a special treat we ALWAYS did when spending the night with my grandparents, only they used buttermilk.

If you ever find yourself wondering why folks call whole milk “sweet milk” just pour yourself up a big old glass of buttermilk! After a sip or two of that, it will make perfect sense!

  1. Stephanie: My mom used to make homemade bread and let us eat it hot from the oven slathered with freezer jam…….I know that has little to do with this but you just made me think about it!

    She says she is going to post her recipe for homemade bread along with a tutorial on here eventually! She makes her own starter and everything!

  2. Hey! You liked the hoe cake though!
    I don’t recommend this for someone who wasn’t raised on it or doesn’t remember watching their beloved grandmama or grandaddy eating it as a child. Its really more of a nostalgia thing (although I personally ate this entire glass last night).

    I’m so glad you liked the hoe cake, though! Thank you for letting me know how it turned out. If you get a chance, let me know what your Mama thinks!!!
