Hush Puppies Food

HUSHPUPPIES

Steps:

• Combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, dried onions, baking powder, salt and pepper in a large bowl and mix. Next, add the hot water slowly until the mixture begins to thicken. The batter should be thick and start to rise quickly. Continue to mix and knead until the batter stops rising. Once the batter is thick enough, let it stand for 30 minutes before cooking.
• When ready to cook, add enough oil to a frying pan for the hushpuppies to be submerged. Heat over high heat to 350 degrees F. Use a spoon to carefully drop the batter into the oil. Make sure to spread them apart so they do not stick together. Fry until golden brown on all sides. (The hushpuppies will rise to the top of the oil, so make sure to turn them in the oil on all sides so they cook evenly.) Repeat with the remaining batter.

HUSH PUPPIES

Steps:

• Whisk 3/4 cup cornmeal, 1/4 cup flour, 2 tablespoons sugar and 3/4 teaspoon each baking soda and salt in a bowl. Stir in 1 beaten egg, 1/2 cup each buttermilk and corn kernels, 1 minced jalapeno, 4 minced scallions, and pepper to taste. Deep-fry spoonfuls of the batter in 350 degrees F vegetable oil until golden, 2 to 3 minutes.

HUSH PUPPIES

Steps:

• Mix together the cornmeal, flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Add the grated onion and sliced green onions.
• Take the egg yolk and buttermilk and blend into the batter. Whip the egg whites into stiff peaks. Fold the egg whites into the batter until it reaches a good consistency. (The amount of egg white depends on the size of your eggs).
• Drop by teaspoonful into hot oil (in a deep fryer or in a dutch oven -- the oil needs to be deep enough to cover the hush puppies). Cook until golden brown.
