Cornbread is a staple of Cajun and Creole cuisine. This version is an old favorite, and it really tastes wonderful. I found the recipe in the bottom of my recipe drawer. —Enid Hebert, Lafayette, Louisiana

Wear disposable gloves when cutting hot peppers; the oils can burn skin. Avoid touching your face.
