The Cornbread Gospels

The Cornbread Gospels

â€œCornbread? I LOVE cornbread!â€ For six years, thatâ€™s the response Crescent Dragonwagon got when people asked her what she was writing about. Over time, she came to understand: Not only is hot, just baked cornbread delicious, it evokesâ€”powerfullyâ€”the heart, soul, and taste of home. There is an abundance of satisfying cornbreads, as Crescent discovered when she followed the cornbread trail from the Appalachians to the Rockies to the Green Mountains. Traveling to family reunions, potlucks, tortilleras, stone-grinding mills, and the National Cornbread Festival in South Pittsburgh, Tennessee, she heard the stories, tasted the breads, learned the secrets. Join her in this overflowing cornucopia: over 200 irresistible recipes for cornbreads, muffins, fritters, pancakes, and go-withs. Cornbreads from below the Mason-Dixon line (Skillet-Sizzled Buttermilk Cornbread, Truman Capoteâ€™s Familyâ€™s Alabama Cornbread) meet those from above (Durgin-Park Boston Cornbread, Vermont Maple-Sweetened Cornbread). Southwestern offeringsâ€”Chou-Chouâ€™s Dallas Hot Stuff Cornbread, delectable homemade tamales, and tortillas from scratchâ€”meet internationals like Indiaâ€™s Makki Ki Roti. A Thanksgiving with Crescentâ€™s Sweet-Savory Cornbread Dressing is rapturous. Desserts like Very Lemony Gorgeous Cornmeal Pound Cake make any meal exceptional. Along with this, Crescent gives us the greens, the beans, the salads, stews, and soups that accompany cornbread to perfection. And she tells us the stories, too. Enthusiastic and heartfelt, this thoughtful, exuberant love song to Americaâ€™s favorite breadstuff and all that goes with it will embrace readers and cooks everywhere.
