Blend at highest speed 3 – 5 minutes; cover blender (expect batter to be gritty); let stand in a warm place 12–24 hours.
Cover blender while blending
A vortex (hole in batter) means batter is blending properly
24 hours soaking is best for corn

Cover and blend 1 - 3 min.
Test for smoothness; blend longer, if desired,
but not longer than 2 – 4 more minutes.
A bit of crunch in cornbread is actually
pleasantly interesting.
STEP 4. Just before baking, add eggs;
blend at highest speed 1 – 3 minutes.
If eggs do not mix into batter right away, turn off blender and mix them in a bit by
hand; then turn blender back on.

Honey Butter
Make your butter stretch with this tasty treat spread on
cornbread, muffins, yeast breads, waffles, and pancakes.
Vigorously blend together with a small wire whisk:
1/8 cup (2 tablespoons) butter
1/8 cup honey (of pourable consistency; if not, warm slightly)
For further research check I Samuel 14 to see what eating honey did for a warrior by the name of Jonathan.

Mrs. Gregg explains the Ten Point Recipe Evaluation Plan
![Page 26: Blender Cornbread Introducing Whole Foods Cooking.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062312/5517457d550346ac338b4676/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
The Ten Point Recipe Evaluation Plan moves children beyond “Yuck” and “Yum” responses to identify the qualities that make food appetizing.
Round 1: Wait until everyone has sampled the dish. Better yet wait until they’ve almost finished the meal. Explain that you would like each person to think of a number which ranks his or her impression of the dish in comparison to similar dishes they’ve had in the past without consulting others. 1, 2, and 3 are low marks. 4, 5, 6, and 7 are satisfactory marks. 8, 9, and 10 are high marks.
Round 2: Ask each person to give a reason that explains WHY he or she chose the ranking number. Here you can introduce quality describing words in categories as:
COLOR: green salad, yellow squash soup, red and white radishes, purple cabbage TEMPERATURE: hot, steaming, warm, lukewarm, cold, chilledTEXTURE: hard, crisp, crunchy, smooth, gooey, softTASTE: sweet, sour, bitter, salty, or umami (savory like the full-bodied flavor of chicken soup)*COMPARISONS: Reminds me of __________.
You don’t have to come to a final consensus, but you could wrap up the survey with “Should we serve this dish once a week, once a month, occasionally, or set it aside?
Note to cooks: It is ok to let your spouse know that he/she does not have to “vote” in the survey but to assist children in participating. You can engage in your own private evaluation later.
*Malcom Gladwell details the basic flavors humans can taste in his chapter on “The Ketchup Conundrum” in his book What the Dog Saw, p.44.
