Self rising CORN flour? That's a new one to me. I've never
made cornbread with corn flour either (yes I know it
exists), only finely ground cornmeal, with or w/o wheat
flour.

In any case, it will taste dry if it's made with only
cornmeal and that was my point. Cornflour was NOT part of
my equasion.
