Homemade Hush Puppies This a was a simple and tasty recipe for hush puppies. The consistency was very nice - light and flaky on the inside.

Homemade Hush Puppies instructions

  1. Mix all dry ingredients together (baking soda, flour, corn meal, sugar, salt, old bay seasoning, black pepper) in a bowl. Make sure the mixture is free of lumps..
  2. Melt the butter..
  3. Combine the dry mixture with the egg, milk, and butter in the bowl. (The batter must have a thick consistency; if it is milky add more flour).
  4. Mince the onion and add to the batter..
  5. Pour 2 cups of vegetable oil in a saucepan and heat. (TEST: if oil is hot, sprinkle with a pinch of flour. It must sizzle).
  6. Add a tablespoon of batter to the hot oil. (about four to six will fit).
  7. Let them cook for about five to eight minutes..
  8. Take them out and place on a paper towel or cookie rack to cool for about two minutes..
  9. Serve and enjoy!.

To the reviewer that thought the batter was too runny, add small equal parts of flour and corn meal until you get the right thickness. For homemade hush puppies, opt for a fine- to medium-grind cornmeal, and spring for stone-ground. Mass-market cornmeal can give the fritters an unappealingly gritty texture. As for color, anything goes — both white and yellow are great. I tried another recipe on this site and was very disappointed.
