Southern Buttermilk Chess Pie
Southern Buttermilk Chess Pie
"Chess pies are a classic dessert throughout the southern United States, and they’re quite delicious. In general, chess pies have a high sugar content, and they remind me of a sweetened custard. My wife actually hates eggy dishes (i.e. quiche, spoonbread, etc.), but she loved this Southern Buttermilk Chess Pie. Chess pies are typically quite easy to make, and this Southern Buttermilk Chess Pie is no exception. The ‘batter’ is more of a liquid filling, so it does take a bit of time to bake in the oven, but the wait is well worth it. Even the most novice of bakers can master this chess pie!"

I see people with the little bit of flour or cornmeal, or both like in your case, in the recipe. Why do you add those ingredients? Is it a texture thing or something else? I haven't had a pie like this one in a long time. My grandmother used to make a very similar recipe when I was a young girl.
