Hush Puppies for a Crowd
Servings: 125 hush puppies
Ingredients
  • 5 lbs. self-rising corn meal
  • 1/2 cup self-rising flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar

  • 1/2 cup shortening melted
  • 3 tablespoons onion minced
  • 4 eggs
Instructions
  1. Stir liquid into dry ingredients, making a thick batter. (Addition of shortening improves texture. Onion adds flavor. Eggs improve texture and flavor. All three are technically optional but they all improve the batter.)

  3. Serve fresh.
