Today Jeff and Maya invited us to visit. Jeff said he would cook the incredible, unique, one and only and super delicious CHILI! I had heard about “Chili con carne” but Jeff said it was different. But … chili goes with corn bread. And I immediately answered, “Corn bread will be my duty!” So far so good, but how is corn bread made? I asked how to make corn bread here and there, in various groups on Facebook, I searched the web and found this or this.
Until this time, I had not made corn bread and had never bought corn flour. I even thought corn flour was the same as corn semolina. As I expected, the corn semolina had bigger variety in the store. I even had to ask a guy from the supermarket’s staff if they had corn flour. Well, after I got a pack of valuable corn flour, it was time to start the preparation of the bread. It’s not hard, it’s nothing special. Very easy and, of course, delicious!
INGREDIENTS:
DIRECTIONS:
Yeast and sugar are dissolved in warm milk. Add 2-3 tablespoons of flour until the mixture becomes thick. Let the mixture for about 10 minutes to rise. The mixture swells, almost doubles and forms a "hat" on top.
Corn flour and salt are poured into a bowl. Add the yeast mixture and the beaten eggs.
Gradually add the white flour until a soft dough is reached.
Allow to warm up until it rises until double.
After that the dough is kneaded again on a surface sprinled with corn flour.
Dough is rolled up into a rectangle about 1 cm thick. Half of it is smeared with the melted butter and topped with the other half.
Cut into stripes about 4-5 cm wide. In the middle of each strip make a long cut that does not reach the end.
The obtained strips are twisted 2-3 times through the slit, making braids.
Place them in a bakinh pan covered with baking paper. Allow them to rise again for another 20 minutes.
Brush them with a beaten egg and bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius until ready.
If I can do it, so can you!
Bon appetit!
