Raised in western Micjigan, I always thought that cornbread should be sweet. I found, when I settled in the South, that it 'taint always so. But I still like it better that way! These cornmeal cakes are identified strongly with Jamaica and parts of the Eastern Caribbean, where they are often served with sautéed salt fish, but they can also be found in the American South and throughout New England, too, and have strong ties to Native American foods. Add boiling water, and mix to combine.
