• Mix the above ingredients together.

CREOLE CORN AND CRAB HAND PIES WITH ENDIVE SLAW AND COMEBACK SAUCE

Steps:

• For the endive slaw: In a bowl, mix together the endive, onion, chives, parsley, vinegar, olive oil and honey. Add salt and pepper to taste. Marinate at room temperature for 15 minutes.
• For the hand pies: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Prepare a grill for medium heat.
• Oil and grill the corn, turning often, until golden brown. Let cool, then cut the kernels from the cob.
• Heat the butter and oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions, peppers, celery and greens onions and cook until translucent. Let cool.
• Add the crabmeat, corn kernels, parsley, breadcrumbs, cayenne, crab boil seasoning and lemon juice. Add salt and pepper to taste and fold in the creme fraiche.
• Lay out the crescent rolls on a work surface. Top each with a couple tablespoons of the filling, then fold into triangles and seal tightly. Brush with egg wash. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until golden brown.
• For the comeback sauce: Combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, cornichons, lemon juice, hot sauce, Worcestershire and salt and pepper taste in a bowl. Mix well. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. (Makes 2 cups.)
• To serve, spoon some comeback sauce onto plates. Slice the hand pies in half and arrange on top of the sauce. Top with slaw.

HUSH PUPPIES

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together just until they are wet.
• Refrigerate 30 minutes to 5 hours.
• To cook, heat oil to about 350-375 degrees.
• Dip a small spoon in cold water, then get a spoonful of batter, using the side of the bowl to"break-off" the spoonful of batter from the bowl.
• Immediately submerge spoon in the hot oil for a few seconds until the Hush Puppy releases from the spoon.
• Repeat this process with each Hush Puppy, until you have 6 or 7 in the hot oil.
• Do not crowd the"puppies", as you do not want to lower the temperature of the hot oil.
• Getting the spoon wet between puppies is important, as it helps keep the batter from sticking to the spoon.
• If your oil is the correct temperature, the hush puppies should be golden on the outside and cooked on the inside.
• When golden on one side, if they automatically turn themselves over, you're cooking like a Pro.
• If they don't give them a little nudge to make them turn over.
• Possible Problems: If oil is too hot, or"raw puppies are too large", they will get too browned on the outside and be gummy or runny on the inside.
• If oil is not hot enough, the puppies will be greasy.
• I usually put 1 or 2 spoonsful of batter in the hot oil to test it before making a whole batch of these tasty little Southern treats.
• Adjust oil temperature as needed.
• Although not quite as good as when freshly cooked, I often freeze leftover hush puppies and reheat them in a toaster oven until warm.
• They are still mighty good.
