HUSH PUPPY RECIPE EASY RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat 2 inches of oil in a large, deep cast-iron skillet or Dutch oven to 365 degrees F.
• Whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and a good pinch of salt in a medium bowl. Beat in the buttermilk and eggs until combined, then stir in the melted butter and scallions to make a thick batter.
• In two batches, drop the batter by the tablespoonful into the hot oil. Fry, turning once, until crisp and golden, about 3 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels; season immediately with salt.

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.
