Feta Cheese Cornbread image

My husband lived in post-Ceaucescu Romania for a year and when I visited, cornbreads and cornmeal mush were pretty much on the menu every day. Okay by me -- it was like a taste of Tennessean far from home. I actually prefer this cornbread to most Southern-style cornbreads. The recipe came from Please to the Table, I think, and I usually halve the recipe for a smaller batch.
