How to Make Hush Puppies From The Loveless Cafe
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups yellow cornmeal, 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Stir in 1/2 cup finely chopped yellow onion.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg yolk and 1 cup buttermilk.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- In a clean bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat 2 large egg whites until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the stiff egg whites into the cornmeal mixture until just combined.
- Pour 3 cups vegetable oil into a large, heavy-bottomed skillet or Dutch oven. The oil should be about 2-3 inches deep.
- Heat the oil to 375°F (190°C) using a deep-fry thermometer.
- Working in batches, carefully drop rounded teaspoons of batter into the hot oil. Avoid overcrowding the pan. Fry, turning once, until the hushpuppies are golden brown and cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per batch.
- Remove the hushpuppies with a slotted spoon and place them on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Serve the Loveless Cafe Hush Puppies immediately. Enjoy!
