Beazell's Hush Puppies By Beazell's Hush Puppies


There is just something about eating a good ole fried hush puppie that reminds me of my Momma's famous Fish Fry gatherings! She always made some hush puppies for me! My Momma would be proud of these!
Beazell’s Hush Puppies
2 cups Yellow Corn Meal
1 cup All-Purpose Flour
1 tsp. Baking Powder
1/2 tsp. Baking Soda
2 tsp. Beazell’s Cajun Seasoning
1 large Onion (very finely diced)
2 Eggs (slightly beaten)
1 cup Buttermilk
2 cloves Garlic (minced)
2 tablespoon Bacon Fat (melted)
Vegetable oil for frying
Combine dry ingredients, then add diced onion. In another bowl, combine eggs, buttermilk, garlic and melted bacon fat. Stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients just until combined. Do not overmix. Let this mix rest for about 10 minutes. Fry rounded teaspoonfuls in oil preheated to 360 degrees. The cooking process is fast, about 1 - 2 minutes. As soon as the hush puppies start to float, use tongs to rotate (both sides should be crisp and light golden brown). It helps to put a pasta strainer on top of them at this point to keep them submerged. Drain on papertowels.
