Kentucky Spoon Bread
"Add white cornmeal to boiling milk to create the unique texture of a traditional Southern spoon bread. There’s nothing quite like it. A truly Southern side dish that’s smooth and creamy and pairs well with any main course. Make it ahead so all you have to do is pop it in the oven. If you’ve never had a classic Kentucky spoon bread, you don’t know what you’ve been missing. You won’t find this dish north of the Mason-Dixon line. Spoon bread is an authentic Southern recipe that’s a mix between corn pudding and cornbread, moist with the texture of a dense custard, and a creamy flavor that compliments a large range of foods. Smooth and creamy enough that you can eat it with a spoon, thus the name. Fancier than a standard cornbread recipe making it great as a side dish for a holiday meal or for Sunday supper."
