Best Miss Lavernes Louisiana Hush Puppies Recipes
MISS BROWN'S HUSHPUPPIES TWO WAYS
Whenever I have a fish fry, I have to have hushpuppies on the side. These are served with honey butter, but they are also great with tartar sauce. If you're a purist, I've included a plain version in addition to a fun Low Country twist with fresh okra in the batter.

Steps:
- For the hushpuppies: Pour enough oil to reach 3 inches up the sides of a Dutch oven. Heat the oil to 375 degrees F.
- Combine the cornmeal, flour, House Seasoning and baking powder in a medium bowl. Pulse the onions in a food processor until finely minced. Add to the cornmeal mixture and stir to combine. Add the egg and enough buttermilk to moisten into a batter. Separate half of the batter to another bowl, then stir the okra into one of the batters. (Make sure the batter isn't too thin. It should hold its shape when scooped out with a spoon.)
- Arrange some paper towels in a baking sheet and place a wire rack on top. Working in batches, drop heaping teaspoonfuls of each batter into the hot oil using a cookie scoop coated with nonstick cooking spray, and cook until golden brown, 2 to 2 1/2 minutes depending on the size (see Cook's Note). Drain the hushpuppies on the wire rack.
- Meanwhile, make the whipped honey butter: Beat the butter and honey in a bowl with a hand mixer at medium-high speed until light and fluffy. Season with salt. Serve with the hushpuppies.
- Stir together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container.
BUTTERMILK HUSH PUPPIES

Steps:
- Heat 1 quart vegetable oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C).
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).
- Whisk buttermilk, 1/4 cup vegetable oil, and eggs in a bowl.
- Combine cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl. Fold buttermilk mixture, onion, and green onions into cornmeal mixture until just mixed.
- Drop 6 to 8 tablespoon-sized balls of batter into the hot oil; fry until each hush puppy is golden brown, turning the hush puppies to cook evenly, 6 to 10 minutes. Remove hush puppies with a slotted spoon and place on brown paper bags to drain. Repeat with any remaining batter.
- Transfer hush puppies to a baking sheet and keep warm in the preheated oven until ready to serve.

MISS LAVERNE'S LOUISIANA HUSH PUPPIES
This recipe was shared with me by my dear, now-deceased, mother-in-law. Fish fries are a popular tradition in Louisiana where she hailed from, especially in the fish camps around the many lakes and reservoirs there. In order to have enough hush puppies to feed the crowd of people attending the frequent community get-togethers,...
