Hush Puppies for Your Fish Fry

After my post about Cooking Your Catch I was asked about a good hush puppie recipe so here it is.

This is my grandmother’s recipe that I was raised on in my home. There is no other recipe that even touches these hush puppies. I have made one change to the original recipe however. I like to add about 1/3 cup of corn to the batter, gives a little extra bite to this wonderful side dish.

With summer on its way….it’s time for crappie fishing and I can’t wait.
