Hush Puppies

Recipe adapted from I’m Just Here for More Food. Read about them here.

  • 150 grams (1 cup + 2 tablespoons) all-purpose flour
  • 142 grams (1 cup + 3 tablespoons) cornmeal
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 & 1/2 cups buttermilk
  • 1 small onion, chopped
 Combine dry ingredients. Add buttermilk and onion, and mix just until combined. Let batter stand for about 10 minutes. Drop by tablespoonfuls into oil (340-350 degrees). When they float to the top, turn them over. Remove when golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Drain on a rack or in a pan lined with paper towels. Yields about 36 hush puppies.
