FYI… self rising cornmeal already has flour in it – did you know that?
Self rising cornmeal is not 100% cornmeal because it has flour added to it.

In reply to Lily. Hi Lily, unfortunately none that you'd like. There are hot water cornbread recipes that use fewer ingredients but the salt is so key here. I can't imagine it would be worth eating. Hard as a cracker and flavorless. I wish I had a better answer for you! --Rachel

My husband is CKD. He is salt restricted. Is there a way to make cornbread without baking soda or baking powder?

Hi Charlotte, you just need to add your leavening agents. If it’s coarsely ground it will be a bit crunchier and crumblier, but it will work. And yes, I’m 46 🙂 –Rachel

In reply to Neena. There's baking soda in baking powder.

If you are using buttermilk, shouldn’t you add baking soda also?
