About Hush puppies, prepared from recipe
Hushpuppies are small, golden, deep-fried balls of seasoned cornmeal batter, a classic of Southern American cooking that traditionally shares the fryer with catfish and shrimp. The batter blends cornmeal with a little flour, egg, buttermilk, and often minced onion, then fries up crisp and craggy on the outside while staying soft and steamy within. Slightly sweet or savory depending on the cook, they are a beloved side at fish fries, barbecue joints, and seafood shacks across the South.
Because they are fried, hushpuppies are an indulgent treat, offering carbohydrates and some fiber from the cornmeal along with the richness of the oil. Cooks love to dress them up with jalapeno, corn kernels, cheddar, or scallions. Serve hushpuppies hot and fresh, ideally within minutes of frying while the crust is still shattering-crisp, with honey butter or a tangy remoulade for dipping.
