I'm not a huge fan of hush puppies, but I have to admit that these were pretty darn good. The batter was light and airy, and the hush puppies were cooked to perfection. I especially liked the dipping sauce.

These hush puppies were a bit too greasy for my taste, but they were still tasty. I think I'll try baking them next time instead of frying them.

I'm a vegetarian and I was looking for a side dish that would go well with my grilled tofu. These hush puppies were perfect! They were filling and flavorful, and they didn't overpower the tofu.

These hush puppies were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

These hush puppies were easy to make and they turned out great! I used a cast iron skillet and they cooked evenly. I served them with fried chicken and mashed potatoes and they were a perfect side dish.

I've tried many hush puppy recipes over the years, but this one is by far the best. The secret is in the cornmeal mixture - it's just the right combination of coarse and fine. I also love the addition of green onions and jalapenos - they give the hus

These hush puppies were a hit at our last family gathering! They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, with just the right amount of sweetness. I'll definitely be making them again soon.
