How to Make Best Southern Hush Puppies
Prepare for frying. Begin by lining a large plate with a double layer of paper towels to catch excess oil.
Mix dry ingredients. In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, kosher salt, baking powder, baking soda, and granulated sugar if using.
Add fresh onion goodness. Grate the yellow onion and fold it into the dry mix along with the egg and buttermilk.
Rest the batter. Stir until just combined and let it sit for 15 minutes.
Heat the oil. In a Dutch oven, pour enough oil to create 1 1/2 inches deep and heat to 365ºF.
Fry the hush puppies. Drop golf-ball sized rounds into the hot oil, frying about 5 at a time until deeply browned, about 3 to 4 minutes.
Drain and serve. Transfer cooked hush puppies to paper towels to drain, and serve hot with salted butter.
