Holding pot with your apron, how scary! Fire hazard! Thanks for how to though. 😊
Thank you❤
Now l know how to make Real Hot Water Cornbread. Grateful. DG
@@delilahgrayer1020 Yes you do🙂🙂
I'm white, but when I was a kid, I loved it when we had cornmeal mush. I'm 69 years old and still make it today. I've never had the hot water corn bread, but you can bet I'm going to try this.
My mother in law used to make this, she was very poor and she taught all her kids this recipe, in case the electricity got cut off they could still make cormbreaf on a gas stove.
All that. Every day, but I keep my energy. When you have a great idea, they down play it.When you offer them something that they can use thr they make up an excuse to say knowing that they need it😅 Narcissistic sant to always want to be bigger , better and my favorite ❤ a dime above you. However, you can see them coming because they always come to you the same way.
Wow . What away, just the way grand mom made.
We call your recipe corn meal mush.
You made a roux first? Very interesting.... I would have liked to see the final dish...
That looks like a lot of oil
I love hot water cornbread. I add the boiling water to my cornmeal instead of the other way around
@@pearl0818 That’s the way my grandmother made it. For some reason I could not master it that way. So she suggested doing it this way for me and it worked like a charm. 🙂I just had to share it!
nice video . Can I suggest growing your CZcams channel?
Share your email please
THATS MEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁 YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!! IM IN A VIDEO!!!!!! This is Nile BTW
Tell her has been my star many many times. 😘
GRANDMA!!!!!!!!! YOU WORE A CAT SUIT!!!!!!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂 WHY?????? This is Nile BTW
Nile it was super cute! 🤣 And I wore it with his heels.
I still cook the hot water cornbread as of now my grandkid Love it ❤
I'm so happy I ran across your hot water cornbread recipe. My granny always made us hot water cornbread. She told me how to make it, and I first made it great. I guess I quit making it enough, and now, I can't get the texture right anymore. When you added extra water towards the end, was that water hot or cold?
Lol I haven’t watched this video in a while. I will watch it and reply. But it is a no fail recipe for some of the best hot water cornbread ever.
Thank you for letting know you like it!
This is great. 😍♥Thank you! 😊
I love this 😊
Thank you so much for the vegan recipe. I've been feeling homesick and missing fried okra.
Your so welcome.
First time watching. Don' t know much about Southern cooking, but I moved in the South and would like to learn to cook. Thanks for this recipe. I lobe that it is vegan.
Thanks so much for this recipe I've never seen any one cook the corn meal first like you did, and I bet that makes all the difference, so thanks to yr grandma and to you 🎉 ☺️🖐️
You are so welcome. I promise it is a no-fail way to make it. Enjoy Thank you.
Love it!
Thank you
I was looking for a recipe for Christmas without meat. Is that all purpose flour? Tfs❤
Yes it is, but you can use any thinking agent you prefer. 🙂
@@ChefReneJohnsonThanks for your reply ❤
Your so welcome. Happy Holidays!

I like to put a little finely chopped onion in mine. Delicious cold.
I like a little finely chopped green onion just the green parts in mine. 🙂 Thank you for sharing.
Keep making videos, try posting week for growth or take the 30 day challenge and post 1 video a day for 30 days become you killed it with that hotwater cornbread. I'd love to see more ol school recipes.
Is it okay to add the salt and sugar to the boiling water?
Yes it absolutely is.
Thanks. It ensures those two ingredients are thoroughly mixed in. I appreciate your response. I have made this recipe many times for my southern gentleman of a husband.@@ChefReneJohnson
Hey Michelle, you are so welcome. I am so glad this recipe worked for you. @@michellewynn6554
You didn’t list measurement for cumin in your measurements on the video info. Can you please help?
Hi Hunter, I apologize for that. Use 1 teaspoon. 🙂
Is this hot water, Cornbread in oil or water
It is made with hot water and fried in oil
Is that water in the frying pan or oil?
It is oil in the frying pan.
@@ChefReneJohnson oh ok , I thought so lol
Thank you
Love this ❤️
are you using self-rising?
No. I’m using all purpose flour
Can you use same spices and onions to slow cook uncooked Lima beans?
This video is my go to lamb recipe. Everything about it is perfect. Thanks for the wonderful tutorial!
I’m sooooo happy that you enjoy it. 🙂
Looks so good, glad I found this recipe. New to this lifestyle, my husband just said he wanted some lims beans. Hopefully I can do it for dinner tonight
You are going to love it. 🙂
How did the butter bean dish turn out?
Super funny, when you said she said, "Cook it on the stove". I was GURL...Hot water CB is not meant for the oven! I thought I better watch what this crazy girl is going to do with the oven. Then it hit me COOK IT ON THE STOVE! Eureka! Cook it, then fry it. (all on the stove!) Brilliant! One more thing, I now remember the cold water bowl with ice! My nannie did the same step! I hadn't thought of that ice bowl until I saw you using it! Thanks Chef Rene! Forgive me for passing judgement so quick. Paid off BIG time watching through the end! XO PS. hey all, this is JUST cornmeal. Not self rising, not a mix with flour, just ALL cornmeal.
You are going to be amazed. I read you note and started to smile.🙂🙂🙂🙂
@@ChefReneJohnson Thanks again! I am giddy. I keep failing, just as you did, before you learned "the Secret!" Cook it on the STOVE!
Very good, Chef Rene. I don't know why, but my family didn't eat hot water cornbread. We ate a lot of cornbread. Also we ate a lot of mush, which is boiled cornmeal. We kept white cornmeal for mush. It has a milder flavor than yellow cornmeal. Mush is thinner than what she makes, but exactly the same. I can't have baking powder, (too much sodium). So I have been making hot water cornbread, but it just lacks something. I am going to follow this recipe exactly. When you start adding baking powder, it's no longer the old way. Some sweetening is traditional, but it would have been honey, molasses or ribbon cane syrup, sugar was expensive. I'm 80 years old and have been cooking since I was 4. I grew up in rural Arkansas and Texas.
You are such a sweet beautiful lady, God bless you. I love your technique! I also love sugar in my corn bread. I also add bakin powder so they are light.
How much cornmeal and water.
2 cups of cornmeal and 2 1/4 water. The full recipe in listed click the "see more" button. 😊
My goodness! You've got my mouth watering from this beautiful spread! I am a fan now!
This corn bread recipe looks yummy but can you add a slice of cheese instead of butter.
Yes you can 🙂
Yes that looked easier than any of the others. Thanks for sharing be blessed 😊
Why does everyone love and want SWEET cornbread. It’s not CAKE, it’s CORNBREAD People! To each his own. They’re killing us people. Enjoy everyone, sweet or buttery unsweetened
Thank you so much for this delicious recipe can’t wait to try it...you sure have beautiful hands those long fingers...greetings from Mexico
You are sooo welcome. Enjoy!
WHY!!! why would anyone make hot water cornbread when Johnny cakes (fried cornbread patties) are just as easy to make and about a thousand times as tasty.
Hi Roy both recipes are absolutely delicious. It really depends on what you grew up on. 🙂
In my opinion there is nothing better than a hot water cornbread.
@@ChefReneJohnson Yeah, I had both but the egg and oil really add flavor. You can mix the egg, oil, and cornmeal in less time than it takes to boil the water. Of course, you can cook either in bacon grease.
Sometimes eggs are not available. It pays to learn how to make it different ways.
Mommy would make this in the morning also with butter, sugar Caine syrup, fried egg, and beacon!!!😊
Thank you I'm cutting all meat out of my diet except for fish, great to have a look around and have a recipe to go off.
You are so welcome.
