Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease two 2-quart baking dishes (or 12 six-ounce ramekins). In a saucepan, combine cornmeal, baking powder,
salt and baking soda. Heat milk until scalding; add to the cornmeal mixture and stir over low heat until the mixture thickens, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in buttermilk, cream and butter until butter is melted and mixture is well-combined. Fold in eggs and Parmesan. Season with salt, pepper and Tabasco. Transfer to baking dishes. Bake for 35-50 minutes, or until golden and puffed.
