Took one tenderloin plus fixins to Dad and Mom's this evening and he made one of his specialty dishes that topped this meal over the edge. Hot water cornbread.

 

[upsman]

I could cater to your location anytime Hehehehe! Thank You Gene!

Ok, ...come on down, we have inside toilet and hot water!  LOL

Now, what is hot water cornbread?

Gene

 

[upsman]

Inside toilet? Hehehehehe the world is my bathroom. Hehehehe! Hot Water Cornbread is a southern side dish like biscuits or

Hush puppies but you use corn meal and boil hot water and pour over the corn meal till you get the just right paste to spoon into hot oil

am\nd the pic is the final result is awesome! look it up. good stuff but takes a master to make it just right like you see in this pic.

Yeah inside toilet, don't laugh, there are some who don't, and the same with hot water, ...and remember, they call this Paradise! 

OK I googled Hot Water Cornbread, ...you say your dad is a master? Hmmmm, I'm tempted, really tempted, I haven't been Stateside in 13 years.

do understand and didn't mean to laugh at anyones misfortune of the luxuries i have. most people don't realize there are alot of folks here in this so called great united states too that don't have either also. yes dad is like the blind master in the Kung Fu show at cooking. and i am still a grasshopper Hehehehehe!  i have never left the states except once to Canada Niagra Falls. hey you not leaving there for 13 yrs must say something right?

funny thing is all the searches you will do on recipes for hot water cornbread are all different. no eggs needed no flour needed etc. it's one of them things you make from trial n error from way back handed down recipes. some people patty theirs and some people just add hot water from the faucet and then when it gets added to the hot oil breaks all apart when it hits the hot oil because the hot water and corn meal mix wasnt made to the right consistancy.  all you need is corn meal and a little sugar and hot water and squeeze butter once they first come out of the frying pan with a drizzle of salt too.

here is the best recipe online i have found but don't use your hands or patty them. if the consistancy is right you take a tablespoon and curl up enough in the spoon and drop that into the hot oil until golden brown.
