"The tradition of Italian cooking is that of the matriarch. This is the cooking of grandma. She didn't waste time thinking too much about the celery. She got the best celery she could and then she dealt with it."--Mario Batali

½ cup white sugar

Directions:
Place a 10 cast-iron skillet in the oven and preheat to 220ºC/425ºF while making batter
Place the DRY Ingredients in a bowl and mix them together.
Place the wet ingredients in a separate bowl and mix until combined
Pour the wet ingredients into the Dry ingredients. mix until combined
Take the skillet out of the oven. Add 1 tbsp of butter and swirl it around to coat the base and halfway up the sides (or use a brush to do this).
Pour the batter in, smooth surface.
Turn oven down to 190ºC/375F, then bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean (or when you poke the top, it springs back)
Cool 15 minutes in the skillet before turning out onto a platter or cutting board.
Best served warm! It can be served in the skillet or turned out onto a plate. Serve with butter and honey as well, to take it over the top.

NOTES:
1. Cornmeal: Sold in packets labeled as "Polenta" in Australia, like the Marco Polo and II Molino brands (both sold at Woolworths), it's a yellow, finely ground grain. Do not get the instant polenta.
2 Skillet-- I used a 10-inch cast iron skillet. You can use a similar-sized cake tin or loaf pan.
3 Make ahead. This can be made ahead and reheated in the oven at 180ºC/350F for around 10 minutes. Or microwave briefly to warm through. Do not leave in a cast-iron skillet overnight -- it will have a metallic flavor.
