Directions
Kittencal’s Hush Puppies, These are a family-favorite they fry up light and so fluffy, a must drizzled pancake or maple syrup on top, servings is only estimated it will depend on how much the batter you drop from the spoon — these can also be made in a deep-fryer with oil heated to 365F :, Just tried these two nights ago; I usually have fried cornbread because since I left North Carolina, I can’t seem to find a hush puppy recipe that is worth the effort. Until Now. This one is a “keeper”. I only deviated from the exact recipe a wee bit. First, it should be noted that you cannot drop batter any larger than the teaspoonful Kittencal has specified; if you do, your hushpuppy will not get done in the middle. If you use the teaspoonnot a tsp. measuring spoon, but a tea-spoon size to measure, they’re perfect. They puff up. I omitted the cayenne and because I failed to read the recipe correctly, I did not chop the corn kernels, but since my results were perfect, I am never going to chop them. And finally, I did not have a 12 oz. can of corn. I had either 16 oz. or the small can which is 8 3/4 oz. used the small one and as I said before, my hushpuppies were perfect! By the way, I did not need more milk. I also used a deep fryer and just rolled them over as they browned. I am so happy to finally have a “go to” recipe for hushpuppies. Thank you, Kittencal! I am a trusting fan of your recipes. As a footnote: I had some hushpuppies left over and they are delicious the second day., They were delicious. I made them in my deep fryer and they didn’t stay together very well so next time I’ll make them in a frying pan instead. Even though they were a mess after coming out of the fryer, I didn’t really care because they tasted great.
