Directions

Measure buttermilk or soured milk into a small bowl. Add egg and beat with a fork. Stir in oil and honey.
In another bowl, mix cornmeal, salt and baking soda.
Heat skillet, add 2 teaspoons butter or oil and spread to cover bottom and sides of skillet thoroughly.
Add cornmeal mixture to milk mixture, stir briefly, and pour into hot skillet. Reduce heat to medium-low and cover. (If skillet has no lid, improvise with foil, a plate, etc.)
Check after 6 - 8 minutes. (It may take a few minutes more.) Cornbread has cooked long enough when firm around the edges and center is almost firm. Turn off heat and let stand, covered, for a few minutes. It will continue to cook.
Serve warm.
TIP: To sour milk, add 1 tablespoon vinegar to 1/2 cup milk and let stand for several minutes.
