Yeast-Risen Cornbread
1 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal -preferably stone-ground
1 1/4 cup boiling water
1 tbsp olive oil
2 package active dry yeast
2 cup all-purpose flour


1. In a blender or food processor, grind cornmeal, in 1/4-cup batches,
until fine and powdery.

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup ground cornmeal, boiling water,
oil and salt; stir until smooth. Let cool to room temperature, about 20
minutes. Stir in yeast.

3. Stirring constantly, gradually add remaining 1/2 cup ground cornmeal and
1 cup flour. Continue adding flour until dough forms a soft mass and is
too difficult to stir.

4. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let dough rise until doubled in bulk,
about 30 minutes.

5. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead, gradually
incorporating the remaining flour as necessary, until dough is smooth and
elastic, 8 to 10 minutes.

6. Lightly oil a baking sheet or coat it with nonstick spray.

7. Form dough into a ball and flatten slightly. Place on prepared baking
sheet. Loosely cover with plastic wrap or wax paper and let rise until
doubled in bulk, 30 to 45 minutes.

8. Preheat oven to 350°F.

9. Bake loaf for 40 to 50 minutes, or until top is golden and bottom sounds
hollow when tapped. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely before
slicing.

Weight loss hints and tips

If you want to lose weight and also better your all round condition, then, as most people know, you ought to follow a specially planned healthy-minded meal plan. At best, this should include five portions of grains, cereals and vegetables each day and take in the right combination of proteins, carbohydrates and fats.

In deciding on a meal plan, you have to endeavour to restrict your intake of refined carbohydrate, fats and salt.

Dieters most certainly look at chain store and branded food products described as 'low in fat'. This is often incorrect, given that a food product may well be very low in fats, but still contain excess carbohydrates.

Learn to recognise the difference between hunger and thirst. Your body must have water , it is indispensable for our body's survival and has no fat. Water also fills your stomach and reduces feelings of emptiness. A few experts claim that you should consume as a minimum six tumblers of water each day.

Rather than paying too much attention to which food types that you need to ban from your weight loss program, direct your attention to the "good" foods that you are able to bring into your meal plan. If one can insert some nourishing fruit and vegetables into your meal plan, you will be delighted to find that you feel full and have a substantially decreased chance of being tempted by those unhealthy mid-day sweets and chocolates.
