Oprah Winfrey has shared her way to her man’s heart! She revealed that her hot water cornbread has become “the most romantic thing” she’s done for her partner Stedman Graham.
The queen of talk shows spilled that sweet secret in her interview with PEOPLE. And as it turns out, Stedman is certainly quite the cornbread lover.
Peep Oprah Winfrey’s Simple Recipe
Graham has a unique appetite, according to the 69-year-old. He doesn’t just have an ordinary affection for cornbread; he adores hot water cornbread. More specifically, Winfrey’s special recipe.
“All you do is add the hot water to the meal and you make these little flat cakes and you fry them in a pan,” she told the publication. She added, “Every time I do it it’s like the most romantic thing I’ve ever done.”
People commonly know hot water cornbread as a traditional Southern dish, often serving it with dinners or using it in stews. As Winfrey explained, this simple yet filling dish carries a sense of home and comfort — all of which speaks to their 35-year relationship.
But Stedman can also get adventurous with his tastebuds. Apparently, Oprah’s longtime partner also enjoys octopus, particularly for breakfast. Winfrey said they regularly have the entire octopus in their fridge.”
“The tentacles and the head are there. He likes it seared [or] sautéed with okra and greens,” she said, clarifying that “He’s the only one who eats it.”
She is feeding love and nurturing her relationship one crumbly piece at a time! For Oprah, a perfectly golden brown cornbread is all she needs to make her man go weak in the knees.

Oprah And Stedman Are All About Simplicity
While many of us try to woo our partners with expensive dinners at five-star restaurants or shiny-wrapped gifts, Winfrey — reportedly worth $2.8 billion — and Stedman keep the love alive with simplicity.
Oprah told PEOPLE the most romantic thing Stedman has done for her “at this point” is picking up a copy of The New York Times from the corner and bringing it to her every Sunday.
To the couple, it’s not the grand gestures or materialistic displays of affection that matter. Oprah and Stedman know how to speak each other’s love languages. All they need is some good ol’ hot water cornbread and weekly newspaper delivery!
