I'm allergic to peppers, so I made these hush puppies without them. They were still really good, but I think I would have liked them better with the pepper.

These hush puppies were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if they had been a bit lighter and fluffier.

These hush puppies were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had added some more spices.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my hush puppies turned out really greasy. I think I might have added too much oil to the pan.

I was a bit skeptical about the pepper in these hush puppies, but I was pleasantly surprised. They had just the right amount of heat to give them a little kick.
