Southern Style Hush Puppies

by Rebecca June 20, 2020
written by Rebecca

I am so excited to share this with you today! I just learned how to make these cute little hush puppies and I could not get enough of it! These little treats will blow your mind. They may be small but do not underestimate the big joy they could give you. I made these yesterday. My sister and my niece visited us. We had a nice barbecue and for dessert, I made Southern Style Hush Puppies. They were a hit. It was my first time trying it and I am so glad that I did. It went from small treats to huge smiles to our faces. We ate it as is but I have read that it also goes well with honey butter as a dipping sauce. Maybe you can try it. As for me, I will try several dips that will go well with this Hush puppies. I am just starting to explore this recipe so everything can happen!

INGREDIENTS

3/4 c self-rising flour

1 cup self-rising cornmeal (not mixed)

1 large egg, lightly beaten

1 small onion, finely minced (use sweet onion)

1 pinch garlic powder

1 pinch onion powder

1 pinch old bay seasoning

1 tablespoon sugar

3/4 to 1 cup buttermilk

canola oil for frying

How to make Southern Style Hush Puppies

Step 1: Combine cornmeal, and flour in a large mixing bowl. Mix until well-mixed then add spices, onion, and egg. Whisk until all ingredients are blended.

Step 2: Pour in the buttermilk and use a fork to stir until well-mixed. The texture you are looking for is a little stiff. Try adding more buttermilk if it’s still not stiff.

Step 3: Pour oil in a deep fryer and heat to 375 degrees. Scoop the dough using a teaspoon and drop it into the boiling hot oil. Once the dough goes up and the color turns golden brown, they are ready to remove.

Step 4: Let them drain the excess oil on a paper towel.

Step 5: Serve hot and enjoy!

Note: You can serve them as is or with honey butter.

We all gathered in the kitchen and witnessed her do her thing and it was awesome! She knew how to work around the kitchen. We all learned a lot that day. Now that I am married and have two wonderful kids, I always find time to teach my children to cook. Whether it’s a simple or difficult dish, I let them try it so they’d know how to appreciate the foods they eat. To my grams, I love you, and thank you for everything!

Step 5: Then, pour the egg mixture over and stir until incorporated.

Step 6: Evenly pour the mixture in the pie shells.

Step 7: Place inside the preheated oven and bake for 50 minutes to an hour. The pies should be jiggly when done.

Step 8: Cover with a pie shield if available after 35 minutes and continue baking. Or you can use a foil to cover the crust to keep it from burning.

Step 9: Once done, remove from the oven. If in case the butter looks like it is sitting on top, don’t worry just give it time to rest and it will seep right back into the pie. Opt to put the pie in the fridge, too.

Classic Maryland Crab Cakes

by Rebecca June 19, 2020
written by Rebecca

I like how summery and fresh these Crab Cakes are. They remind me of the amazingly fresh seafood we ate at the beach during the summer season. These classic cakes are perfectly golden and crispy on both sides. And they are best served with a homemade tartar sauce and fresh lemon.

INGREDIENTS

1 pound backfin or lump crab meat

2 large eggs, beaten

1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs or seasoned breadcrumbs

3 tablespoons mayonnaise

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, plus extra for garnish

2 teaspoons dijon mustard

2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

2 teaspoons Old Bay seasoning

vegetable oil or unsalted butter, for frying

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste

lemon (wedges), garnish, optional

For the Tartar Sauce

1 cup mayonnaise

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 tablespoon red onion, minced

1 tablespoon sweet pickle relish

1 teaspoon dijon mustard

How to make Classic Maryland Crab Cakes

Step 1: Use a parchment paper to line a baking sheet.

Step 2: Stir the beaten eggs, mayonnaise, mustard, parsley, and Worcestershire sauce in a large bowl.

Step 3: Add in the Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.

Step 4: Add the crab meat and panko breadcrumbs.

Step 5: Lightly fold the mixture into the egg mixture. When folding make sure to not shred the crab meat.

Step 6: Scoop and form the mixture into 6 crab cakes. Place each cake onto the prepared baking sheet,

Step 7: Cover the cakes with plastic wrap. Place inside the fridge to chill for an hour or until you are ready to prepare or cook.

Step 9: Serve hot with tartar sauce and some fresh lemon. Enjoy!
