Follow remainder of recipe as written. (You may substitute 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg for the cardamom, if desired.)

Steps:

• In a bowl, beat egg and buttermilk together.
• Sift dry ingredients and stir them into the egg mixture.
• Whisk in melted margarine or oil (if mixture is very thick, add a little milk).
• Heat a heavy griddle or frying pan and lightly grease.
• Pour by 1/4 cup measures, and cook until bubbles form and the griddle cakes begin to look dry.
• Turn and cook on other side.

Steps:

• Mix together the dry ingredients in one bowl, the wet ingredients in another bowl.
• Stir the wet into the dry using a wooden spoon, mixing just enough to blend- don't overmix; batter should be slightly lumpy.
• Heat a griddle,greased lightly with some additional oil or nonstick spray, over medium to medium-high heat until a drop of water sizzles when dropped onto the pan.
• Stir the batter again briefly (since it will have settled), and drop a scant 1/4 cupful of batter onto the pan for each cake.
• Cook until bubbles form and burst and the bottom is light brown, adjusting heat if needed to keep from burning bottoms.
• Flip over and cook the other side for 1-2 minutes, just until browned (if you touch it with your finger, no imprint will remain).
• NOTE: If batter is too thick, add a little more buttermilk.
• Serve with warm syrup.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F and grease and flour 2 nine inch round cake pans.
• In a medium bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
• In a large bowl, beat the butter, shortening and sugar together and whip until creamy. Do not overbeat.
• Beat in the eggs and the vanilla extract.
• Slowly add half of the flour mixture to the butter mixture and combine well.
• Add buttermilk and stir until combined.
• Add the remaining flour mixture and stir until all ingredients are well mixed. Again, be careful not to overbeat.
• Pour into prepared pans.
• Reduce oven temp to 300 and bake for 40-50 minutes until cake is done in the middle.
• Cool and frost with your favorite icing.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 with rack in the middle of the oven. Butter cake pans and line the bottoms with wax paper or parchment paper cut to fit. Butter the paper. If making cupcakes, use paper liners or butter the cupcake pan.
• Beat the butter and sugar at medium speed with electric mixer until light and fluffy in a large mixing bowl. Beat in eggs one at a time. Scrape bowl and beaters to incorporate.
• Sift the flour with the baking powder and baking soda. Add one quarter of the dry mixture to the butter-egg mixture and then add the vanilla and a third of the buttermilk. Repeat beginning and ending with the flour mixture and scraping well after each addition.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pans and spread to the edges with a spatula. Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.
• Cool in pans of a rack for 5 minutes. Turn pans onto the rack, remove parchment paper or was paper and cool completely before frosting.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°. In a blender, combine the buttermilk, heavy cream, creamed corn, whole eggs, egg yolks and 2 tablespoons of the oil and puree.
• In a large bowl, whisk the cornmeal with the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Slowly stir in the wet ingredients and fold in the scallions, corn kernels and jalapeño. Do not overmix; there should be a few lumps.
• Heat a large cast iron griddle or skillet. Add 1/2 tablespoon of the vegetable oil until shimmering. Spoon three 1/3 cup portions of the batter into the skillet and cook over moderately high heat until starting to brown around the edges, about 1 minute. Add 1 teaspoon of the butter to the skillet and cook until bubbles form on the surface of the cakes, about 2 minutes. Flip the cakes and cook until browned on the second side. Transfer them to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven. Repeat with the remaining oil, batter and butter. Serve the corn cakes hot, with butter and honey.
