Thread: Hushpuppy Size

I dip my spoon in water before every pup I make and never had any problems...Make um slide off much easier and a little drop of water ain;t no big deal...Better not cook any frozen french fries drill inst, they have frozen water all over um.

My wife uses her cake icing bag 'thingy'. They come out as big or as small as you want....depends on the size of the 'fitting' on the end of the bag. Usually, about the size of a small egg or ping pong ball is the best size.

here is the way that I make hushpuppies.
1- cup self rising corn meal
1- egg
add milk to desired consistency
onion to taste
Jalepeno peppers to taste

drop by teaspoon ( do not pack or roll into ball, this makes them doughie) in hot oil (350 degrees)
remove when they are golden brown.

Here's one I can't steer away from:

1-1/2 Cups Cream Style Corn
Self Rising Corn Meal (amount to be determined) (I like the white)
1/3 Can of Beer
Green Onions (chopped)
1 Teaspoon Salt
1 Egg
1/2 Bell Pepper (chopped)
2 Teaspoons Baking Powder
Vegetable Oil or Peanut Oil (for frying)

Cut green stalk onion in lengths to fit in food processor. De-seed bell pepper, and cut up in chunks small enough to also get in food processor (with the green onions). Process these together until they are "pureed mush". Mix this in a bowl with the egg, corn, baking powder, beer, and salt (everything except the meal). Then start adding corn meal until the consistency suits you (thick enough to stay together on the way to the pot!!) Fry golden brown.

I have a bad habit of puttin' a little extra corn, bell pepper, and green onions. The taste is awesome!!!!
