Mama's Cornmeal Hushpuppies image

Provided by Trisha Yearwood

Categories     side-dish

Time 30m

Yield 48 hushpuppies

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups self-rising white cornmeal
3/4 cup finely chopped onion
1 large jalapeno, chopped fine
Kosher salt
2 cups buttermilk
8 cups peanut oil, for frying

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix the cornmeal, onions, jalapeno and a pinch of salt. Add enough of the buttermilk to make a stiff batter. You may not need the whole 2 cups.
  • Heat the peanut oil in a deep fryer or a large heavy bottomed pot to 250 degrees F.
  • Drop the batter into the hot oil by teaspoonfuls. The hushpuppies will turn over in the oil as they cook. They are done when they are brown all over, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove them from the oil with a slotted spoon, drain on paper towels and season with salt. Keep the hushpuppies warm while you fry the remaining batter. Serve hot.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cornmeal. Fresh cornmeal will produce the best results, as it has a higher nutritional value and a more pronounced corn flavor.
  • Measure your ingredients accurately. This is especially important for baking recipes, as incorrect measurements can result in a dry or dense loaf of cornbread.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense loaf of cornbread. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cornbread in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the cornbread cooks evenly.
  • Let the cornbread cool slightly before serving. This will help to prevent the cornbread from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Self-rising cornmeal is a versatile ingredient that can be used to make a variety of delicious recipes. With its slightly sweet flavor and coarse texture, self-rising cornmeal can be used to make everything from cornbread and muffins to pancakes and waffles. Whether you're looking for a classic Southern dish or a quick and easy breakfast, self-rising cornmeal is a great option. So next time you're in the kitchen, reach for a bag of self-rising cornmeal and experiment with one of the many delicious recipes that can be made with this versatile ingredient.
