Steamed wotou (nonleven cornbread) 红薯🍠窝头

Steamed wotou is a staple food in northern part of China where sorghum and corn are the main crops. Traditionally wotou is made of sorghum flour and the texture and taste are quite rough. I have been modified this staple food to flatter modern taste buds by adding Asian yam and honey to make the bread sweet and moist. In order to digest whole grain well, I recommend to soak it overnight at room temperature with 2 Tsp yogurt as a starter.

Cornbread Cornbread
This is a recipe from Alex Guarnaschelli that I amend slightly due to my liking. My family would be ashamed of me because this is not exactly southern cornbread, but I like it kind of smooth (less crumbly) and what they don’t know won’t hurt them. The other sinful thing I like, which I would strongly suggest, is putting an obscene amount of buttermilk into this cornbread (more than the recipe calls for) and pulling it out of the oven early so the middle is still raw. It sounds crazy, but try it. PlainAddieJane -
