Kittencals Hush Puppies

Features:
    Cuisine:

    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 teaspoon(not 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.

    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 teaspoon(not 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!
