HUSH PUPPIES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk the egg, milk and onion; add to dry ingredients just until combined. , In a cast-iron Dutch oven or an electric skillet, heat oil to 365°. Drop batter by tablespoonfuls into oil. Fry until golden brown, 2 to 2-1/2 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Serve warm.

HUSH PUPPIES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, pepper, salt, sugar, baking soda and cayenne. In another bowl, gently mix the buttermilk, scallions and eggs.
• Whisk the wet and dry ingredients together until just combined, then rest the batter for 10 minutes.
• In a 6-quart stockpot, pour enough oil to fill the pan about a third of the way. Heat over medium heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil reaches 350 to 360 degrees F. Drop small scoops or rounded tablespoons of the batter into the oil in batches of eight. As soon as the hush puppies start to float, use tongs to rotate and cook until both sides are crisp and light golden brown, 60 to 90 seconds. It helps to put a pasta strainer on top of the hush puppies at this point to keep them submerged. Use a slotted spoon to remove the hush puppies, and transfer to a clean brown paper bag to remove excess grease. Repeat for the remaining batter, about 24 hush puppies total.
• Serve the hush puppies steaming hot.

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.

HOPPY HUSH PUPPIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• In a medium bowl, add the cornbread mix, peppers, corn kernels, the egg, beer and cheese. Stir with a fork to just combine and let sit for 7 minutes.
• Heat the oil, (3 to 4 inches deep), in a heavy pan or Dutch oven to 365 degrees F.
• Using 2 large soupspoons, drop the mixture, in batches into the hot oil and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Carefully turn and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to a wire rack lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt when still hot. Put the baking sheet in a warm oven, if not serving right away, or serve immediately with Spicy Agave Butter.
• In a small bowl, add the butter and mix with a fork until light and fluffy. Stir in the spices and the agave syrup. Stir well to combine and refrigerate until firm, about 20 minutes.

Stir in 1 beaten egg, 1/2 cup each buttermilk and corn kernels, 1 minced jalapeno, 4 minced scallions, and pepper to taste.

HUSH PUPPIES

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.

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.

HUSH PUPPIES

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together just until they are wet.
• Refrigerate 30 minutes to 5 hours.
• To cook, heat oil to about 350-375 degrees.
• Dip a small spoon in cold water, then get a spoonful of batter, using the side of the bowl to"break-off" the spoonful of batter from the bowl.
• Immediately submerge spoon in the hot oil for a few seconds until the Hush Puppy releases from the spoon.
• Repeat this process with each Hush Puppy, until you have 6 or 7 in the hot oil.
• Do not crowd the"puppies", as you do not want to lower the temperature of the hot oil.
• Getting the spoon wet between puppies is important, as it helps keep the batter from sticking to the spoon.
• If your oil is the correct temperature, the hush puppies should be golden on the outside and cooked on the inside.
• When golden on one side, if they automatically turn themselves over, you're cooking like a Pro.
• If they don't give them a little nudge to make them turn over.
• Possible Problems: If oil is too hot, or"raw puppies are too large", they will get too browned on the outside and be gummy or runny on the inside.
• If oil is not hot enough, the puppies will be greasy.
• I usually put 1 or 2 spoonsful of batter in the hot oil to test it before making a whole batch of these tasty little Southern treats.
• Adjust oil temperature as needed.
• Although not quite as good as when freshly cooked, I often freeze leftover hush puppies and reheat them in a toaster oven until warm.
• They are still mighty good.
