Ingredients
2cups coarsely ground cornmeal, 1tsp kosher salt, 0.5tsp baking powder, 0.5tsp baking soda, 2개 large eggs, 1.5cups buttermilk, 0.5cups lard
Instructions
1. In a bowl, combine 2 cups of coarsely ground cornmeal, 1 tsp of kosher salt, 0.5 tsp of baking powder, and 0.5 tsp of baking soda.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 1.5 cups of buttermilk.
3. Whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Adjust consistency by adding more cornmeal if needed, aiming for a batter slightly thicker than pancake batter.
4. Melt about 0.5 cups of lard in a cast iron skillet over medium heat.
5. Once the lard is melted (not hot), add about half of it to the cornbread batter and mix to combine.
6. Leave the remaining lard in the skillet and heat the pan until it is ripping hot.
7. Carefully pour the batter into the hot skillet with the oil, smooth out the top, and place it into a preheated 425°F oven.
8. Bake for about 20 to 25 minutes, or until set. Let cool on a wire rack for about 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
