Can I use this in a bread machine?
You can use it in part of the flour called for in bread recipes. For instance, if using a recipe that call for approx. 3-1/2 total flour, use 3 cups flour and only 1/2 cup corn meal. Mix flours and cornmeal well before using in recipe.
How do I make this self-rising?
Per 1 cup of cornmeal, add 3 Tbsp. All Purpose flour, 1 Tbsp. baking powder and ½ tsp. salt.
If I store my flour in the freezer, what do I do before using it in a recipe?
It is best to bring all ingredients to room temperature before use, unless otherwise specified in the recipe.

Cold ingredients may adversely affect the recipe performance. Yeast in particular is sensitive to warmth or cold. Butter and other solid fats are another set of ingredients that are affected by temperature and can affect the way a dough or batter can be blended.
Can I fry with this?
Yes. If used on meat, it may need to be dipped in egg or milk mixture first to get the corn meal to stick to the surface of the meat.
