Jalapeño corn bread

Make candied jalapeños. This adds a sweet element to cornbread or hush puppies. There are plenty of recipes out there but the basic concept is to boil the peppers in a vinegar and sugar solution. I recommend draining them well and absorbing as much liquid, with paper towels, as possible before adding them to your batter.

I do that too. There is a great Mexican corn bread recipe in the cookbook thread on here. I think page 75-ish

Damn right. We use it all the time

when you add sour cream and corn, do you still add eggs and milk?

Yeah, it's two slightly beaten eggs, 1/4 cup oil, 1 1/2 cup self rising cornmeal, can of creamed corn, cup of sour cream, and dice jalapeños. Add some shredded cheese when mixing and then buttermilk while mixing to get it to right consistency. Once it's almost done baking, add a little more shredded cheese to top of it. Add more jalapeños than you think is necessary. The sour cream and cream corn I guess cut the heat more than you think. It's is VERY moist cornbread. It's really good. Otis knows what he's doing
