• Transfer the batter to the prepared baking dish and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine brown sugar, molasses, butter, orange zest, salt, aniseed and boiling water; stir until brown sugar is dissolved and butter is melted.

Add, all-purpose flour and 1 cup rye flour. Beat on medium speed 3 minutes. Stir in enough remaining rye flour to form a stiff dough., Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour., Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide in half. Shape into 2 oval loaves. Grease 2 baking sheets and sprinkle lightly with cornmeal. Place loaves on prepared pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes., Preheat oven to 350° .

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and place a 9-inch cast iron skillet inside to heat while you make the batter.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Whisk in the milk, buttermilk, and eggs. Whisk in almost all of the melted butter, reserving about 1 tablespoon for the skillet later on.
• Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees F. Coat the bottom and sides of the hot skillet with the remaining butter. Pour the batter into the skillet and place it in the center of the oven. Bake until the center is firm and a cake tester or toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Allow to cool for 10 to 15 minutes and serve.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, salt, butter, ¾ cup sugar, and the cardamom. Warm over medium heat, stirring until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and let cool slightly, about 5 to 7 minutes. Milk should be warm to the touch but not too hot.
• In a liquid measuring cup, dissolve the yeast and remaining teaspoon of sugar in the warm water. Let sit until the mixture is foamy, about 3 to 5 minutes.
• Once the milk mixture has cooled, pour into a large bowl and add the yeast mixture and the egg. Stir until well combined.
• Add the flour, 1 cup (125 grams) at a time, stirring or kneading with your hands between each addition, until no longer sticky. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 15 minutes, or until it springs back when pressed. Transfer to a large bowl greased with butter, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise in a warm spot until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Turn the dough out onto a clean surface and divide in half. Cut each half into 3 equal portions. Stretch and roll each piece into a 14-inch rope. Place 3 pieces parallel to each other and pinch together the ends on one side, tucking underneath to conceal. Braid the strands together, pinch the ends together at the other end and tuck underneath. Place the loaf on the prepared baking sheet and cover with a damp towel. Let rest until doubled in size, about 1 hour. Repeat with remaining dough.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Uncover the loaves and lightly brush with water. Sprinkle with coarse sugar, brushing the excess from the baking sheet.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, rotating halfway through, until the top is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom. Let cool before slicing.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a large bowl mix together the corn meal, flour, salt, and baking powder.
• In a separate bowl mix together the eggs, butter, and buttermilk. Add to the dry ingredients and stir until well blended.
• Heat a dry 12 inch cast iron skillet over high heat for 2 minutes. Add corn oil to skillet, swirl oil around to coat bottom and sides. Leave remaining oil in pan. Return to high heat for 1 minute.
• Pour the cornbread batter into the skillet and cook on high heat until bubbles start to form in the center. Remove from stove.
• Bake in a preheated 400 degree F (200 degree C) oven for 40 to 50 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Combine the first five ingredients. Add milk, egg and butter; stir until dry ingredients are moistened. Pour batter into a greased 8-in. square baking pan. Bake at 400° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center of the bread comes out clean. Serve warm.
