1. 1

   Reprinted with permission of Simon and Schuster Inc., New York, New York. "I love the smell of corn bread hot out of the oven. It's my idea of what a home kitchen ought to smell like. Skillet corn bread takes only five minutes to mix and twenty minutes to bake, and it costs less than a dollar for a thick eight-inch round - a good deal, no matter how you slice it." An 8- or 9-inch round cake pan, well greased, can be substituted for the skillet. The timing is about the same, but the corn bread will not be as crisp or browned on the bottom and sides.

   For equipment, you will need a large mixing bowl, a wire whisk, a rubber spatula, and a well-seasoned 8-to 9-inch cast-iron skillet.
