Rather than a yeast bread recipe, which I give in the Basic Recipes section, I have included here a quick bread, cornbread. Once you have made cornbread, you will appreciate its versatility. It is the perfect accompaniment to spicy stews and gumbos, and it is excellent at breakfast with eggs any style and crisp bacon. You can add grated cheese to the mixture, or chopped chillies, crumbled bacon or fried onions.
