Chuckling at your husband’s comment! Once upon a time the only chili I’d ever heard of was the red kind. But then my mom reminds me she didn’t first eat spaghetti till she was 16! How far we have come in a culinary way even. Yes, I’m a molasses fan – or sorghum as we call it here. Great for one’s iron count:) And so delicious!

This all sounds so delish. I was just thinking about making white chicken chili (though hubby says “Let the chickens live!”) Love corn bread (though don’t get to eat it often), especially in cast iron, and totally love your direction to lavish it with butter. Have never put sugar in, but do like a tablespoon of blackstrap molasses. Have you ever tried that? Thanks for the recipes, Laura. So nice to connect with you over food and drink ~ and a good book. Yea! Winter & a Lacemaker will soon be here.

So glad your redcoated self is here;) Here’s a good substitution…

To make exactly one cup of self-rising cornmeal, combine 3/4 cup plus 3 tbsp. of cornmeal with 1 tbsp. baking powder and 1/2 tsp. salt. Another recipe uses one cup of cornmeal with 1 1/2 tsp. of baking powder and 1/2 tsp salt.

I hear ya about not find the right cornmeal. We don’t have it out west either so I have to rely on Amazon to get it usually but they ship in large batches which means I can feed a redcoated army! Hope autumn is treating you well. You are a writing, researching, traveling blur!

YUM!! This looks fabulous!!
Yankees? What about Recoats? We like a wee bit of sweetness.
Umm, if one cannot find self-rising cornmeal, what can she use?
