Being from the South, I always wondered about the " hot water" part about "Hot Water Cornbread ". For years, I was ashamed to ask what that meant, so I'd just be quiet when someone would bring it up. Now, the mystery has been solved and now, I know how to make "Hot Water Cornbread". Thanks, AB.❤.

Yes Lord, that pot liquor is grandma special from those greens. Make me really miss my grandma and my mom very much.

[cymsensible]

Heyy AB! Pot liquor is the juice of your greens, cabbage, beans, etc... that you drink because it's full of healing nutrients and delicious all by itself or sop it up with your hot-water🔥cornbread or skillet or pan cornbread! 😋

Growing up in Compton California in the house with 13 Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins together ; Grandma only cooked hot water cornbread because it allowed her to save her eggs, milk, and butter. The hot water cornbread also allowed her to make more and stretch it. GOOD HOOD EATING 💯🖤

Mama passed. I was in my early 20's. Grammie passed a year later. This so so nostalgic. I love your channel. It definitely gives me the basics, then I add what I remember was mama's way, or try add something new. I love simplicity and that's what you show me. I have learned from you that I don't have to be in the kitchen all day. Thank you. May God continue to bless and keep you.

My Grammies never let us in the kitchen so I am thrilled to have found your channel. Now I get to learn how the magic happens.

I’m from SE Texas and was taught to make it with yellow cornmeal and salt, and slowly add boiling water until the meal could be shaped into a patty, or just put a spoonful of dough into hot oil. Mama would drop small spoonfuls of the batter into her greens to make cornmeal dumplings. We’d pour Louisiana hot sauce on our corn bread for a tasty treat. 😋 🤤

[littlestepperspreschool]

My aunt Betty made hers with white cornmeal adding the hot water a little at a time for a thicker pattie. Soo good!

[thesaucebre]

My grandmother used to make this, I never knew how. Thank you for sharing!!

I made these for my wife on New Year's Day. She loved them. I used an ice cream dipper to get equal size portions of wet cornbread before flattening them like you showed. Thanx.

[arilynwallace]

Made your Salisbury steaks the other day. Your recipes have gotten me back into cooking after a long period of depression/ppd. Trying this tonight with pot roast & Mac ❤️ just wanted to say thank you 🙏🏻

[stephaniesass]

Thank you.
I’m all in with quick and simple.
I added finely sliced scallions to the mix to go with the fried catfish, coleslaw., sea island red peas with Charleston gold rice. 💯

[mariegunter]

I never make patties, I spoon mine in. Perfect every time. Thank you for the video. I season mine well also.. I love pot “liccah.” 🤣

[yoyomi]

Now this is the way my momma made hers, except no sugar. All the recipes I see online use baking powder, which she never used. I love the ones with extra crispy edges...umm so good. And so good with the pot liquor of beans or greens...I'm getting hungry!!

Oh, my mother always made them into paddies vs the spoon kind, and made sure some had the browned edges she knew we loved. I'm gonna have to try the dumplings in the greens and the spoon shape, just because. Thanks for all those great memories you've reminded me of today. 🥰

My mom use to make these, I love hot water cornbread. I I can't wait to make these, thanks for going back down memory lane! God bless you!🤗🙏🏻🙏🏻❣

[calikeisha]

You got me over here missing Sunday dinner at my grandads. I made some for my daughter’s class during black history month when she in elementary the class loved them! Thanks AB!

[nakitatillis]

My grandma fried hers in butter. It was off the chain!😋

[sailorneen]

my auntie ONLY made hot water cornbread. Never had a true recipe for it cause she cooked by feeling. Lmao she called it “curious cooking” 😭. I just saw her boil water, use maybe 1-2 eggs, cornmeal and a bit of sugar. I could never get the ratios right to get mine like hers, this video is definitely gonna help me!

I loved hot water cornbread growing up in the south. It was southern fast food then. Thanks for showing us how easy it is to make.

[DEllis-qlgo]

I was just @ my girlfriend's house & she made hot water cornbread in front me, She added bakingpower to hers and had a bowl of cold water separately 2 the side to dip her hands in it before rolling & patting them out in her hands to keep the patties from sticking 2 her hands & she placed them in the skillet like I did, Away from her 2 keep the hot grease from popping on her, Then she waited 4 them 2 make bubbles in the center B4 turnings, She also did smothered cabbage, WOW! Just Excellent!
