00:02Hi mom. I see you there mom. Can you hear me? I hear you through the phone not
00:08through the computer. Well I don't know how to. Okay, corn bread. The first thing
00:16I need to do is heat the oven. Heat the oven for 50. Mom I don't have the right
00:23size skillet here. What do you have? Show me what you have. That's way too big.
00:29I know. Can you do it in the bottom of the Dutch oven? Well I've never done that but I
00:35think you're probably good. You need to pour a couple of tablespoons of oil in it. I never measure I
00:41just pour in some oil. Can it be olive oil? I've never used olive oil. Oklahoma farmers are not Italian.
00:48Oklahoma farmers are not Italian. That's what you have huh? Yeah and it's just barely it'll just barely coat the
00:57bottom. I think I better do some
00:59butter. All right put about a tablespoon of throw a little butter in with it. This goes
01:06in the oven to preheat. To preheat. And I don't know whether that butter will burn or not
01:13but put it in there. It'll be okay. But you got to work fast now daughter. Hang on you're on
01:19a cat stand.
01:21You would start with three quarters of a cup of cornmeal. Do you care what kind of cornmeal it is?
01:31I do not. I use both white and yellow. But do you care if it's stone ground or?
01:39No Jennifer I don't.
01:43Baking soda. Baking soda one-fourth teaspoon slightly rounded.
01:53Does that mean just a little bit more like that? Fine.
01:58That's good. Okay, how much sugar do you do? Well, I can. I dip in and get a little
02:06bit but I think it's a tablespoon. Stir that together. Mom I don't have butter milk.
02:11I've got to make my butter milk. How much buttermilk do you think it is? About a cup? Less than
02:15a cup?
02:16It'll be about a cup. Would you use vinegar or would you use lemon? Do you have to wait for
02:21it to curdle? You know, I don't know, Jennifer. I'm rarely without buttermilk. I know. Silly mind just for the
02:28record. I'm checking to see if our butter is running. Nope. Okay, so you put this in there. Put in
02:39about two-thirds of it. Mix it up. Show it to me.
02:47Don't burn yourself. It's very hot. You take the butter, you pour it straight in the batter, then in it
02:55goes. I like how it sizzles. Mmm, it's already getting bubbly on the sides.
03:03And how long do you let it cook? Honey, until it's brown. Until it's brown, she says. Smart aleck, Mom.
03:12Check it in about 12 to 14 minutes and see how it is. Do you want me to dance for
03:19you, Mom?
03:22No wonder it's called a fruit day of cooking show.
03:27It's not quite ready.
03:35Oh, yeah, it's perfect.
03:39Oh, that's good stuff, Mom.
03:45I never know if I should have it with just butter, plain, with butter and jam, with butter and honey.
03:50Well, I prefer it with just butter.
03:54I wish you were here to eat it with me.
03:56I do, too.
03:57But it's fun talking to you.
03:59I can't believe you've never been a guest on Pretend Cooking Show before.
04:03I love you and I trust you, Mom.
04:05Okay, bye-bye.
04:07Bye.
04:07That's the best thing in the world.
