Looking For A Wine To Pair With Cornbread?
Try Humanitas Sauvignon Blanc. $30. The salty sweet flavor of the cornbread pairs perfectly with the floral and citrus notes of this Sauvignon Blanc. The best part? With all the proceeds of this wine going to charity, it makes it easy to open that second bottle.
Remove the hot cast iron skillet from the oven with your best oven mitts, it will be extremely hot. pour the canola oil the pan making sure it coats the entire inside of the pan.
Pour the batter into the cast iron skillet and return to the oven. Bake the cornbread for 25 minutes or until a toothpick comes away clean.
