Bacon Scallion Hush Puppies Recipes

Steps:

• Mix cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda and cheese in medium bowl. Add buttermilk, eggs and bacon bits; stir just until blended.
• Heat oil in large saucepan to 375°F. Drop tablespoonfuls of batter, in batches, into hot oil; cook 2 to 3 min. or until browned on both sides. (Hush puppies will float to the top as they cook.) Remove hush puppies from oil with slotted spoon; drain on paper towels.
• Place in shallow pan in warm oven to keep warm until ready to serve.

Steps:

• In a medium-sized bowl, add the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, jalapeños, and bacon, and use a hand mixer to blend until combined.
• Using a teaspoon, scoop out the cream cheese mixture and roll into a ball. Place onto a parchment paper-lined sheet tray and freeze for 30 minutes.
• In a bowl, add the cornmeal, flour, salt, pepper, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and cayenne pepper, and whisk to combine.
• In a separate bowl, add the buttermilk, egg, and onion, and stir until combined.
• Slowly add the buttermilk mixture to the dry ingredients, whisking until just combined. Let rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• Preheat a pot of oil to 350˚F (180˚C).
• Dip the cream cheese balls into the batter, ensuring they are fully coated on all sides.
• Add the hush puppies to the oil and fry until golden brown on all sides.
• Transfer to a wire rack or paper towel lined-plate to drain.
• Serve immediately.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• For the dip: Combine the sour cream, honey mustard and lemon juice in a bowl and mix until well blended.
• For the hushpuppies: Fill a medium heavy-bottomed pot with enough oil to come 1/3 of the way up the sides. Place over medium heat.
• In a large bowl, mix together the corn bread mix, cornmeal, onions, eggs, sweet potato puree and bacon until well combined. When the oil reaches 350 degrees F, carefully drop the batter by the heaping tablespoonful into the oil using 2 spoons or a small ice cream scoop. Fry in batches until golden brown and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the oil and drain on a tray lined with paper towels. Serve immediately with creamy honey mustard dip on the side.

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to high.
• In a large bowl, toss the salsify and corn with a little olive oil and some salt and pepper. Add the salsify and corn to the grill, grilling on all sides until the salsify is fork tender and the corn looks charred. Remove from the grill.
• Slice the corn kernels off the cob into a bowl. Chop the salsify into small cubes. Add to the bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
• In another bowl, mix the buttermilk with the egg. Add to the salsify and corn, mixing to incorporate. Add the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt and bacon. Mix together to form a thick batter.
• Heat enough peanut oil to fry in a Dutch oven or cast-iron skillet to 350 degrees F. Drop golf ball size balls of batter in the oil, cooking until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Remove from the fryer, sprinkle with salt and drizzle with Salsify Honey Butter Dipping Sauce.
• Fill a medium saucepan with water and bring to a boil. Break the salsify stalks in half to release the milk inside, and boil for 10 minutes. Simmer for another 5 minutes. Take 1 cup of salsify stock and pour into another saucepan. Then add the honey, butter, sriracha, and cayenne. Season with salt and pepper. Bring back to a boil and simmer for another 10 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200 degrees. Cover a baking sheet with a double layer of paper towel. In a large bowl, combine cornmeal, baking powder and baking soda.
• In a small bowl, whisk together eggs, buttermilk and bacon fat. Add to the cornmeal mixture and mix to combine. Stir in crab and bacon and season to taste. Allow to stand for 10 to 15 minutes while oil heats.
• In a Dutch oven or other large pot, add enough oil to come to a depth of 3 inches. Heat over medium-high heat until oil is 350 to 360 degrees.
• Form batter into golf ball-sized balls (if batter is too dry to cohere well, stir in a bit more buttermilk). Drop balls into hot oil 5 or 6 at a time and cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. As each batch is finished, place on baking sheet and put into the oven to keep warm. Serve accompanied by plenty of room-temperature butter.

Steps:

• Wrap each potato wedge with 1 slice bacon. Secure each end of the bacon slice with a toothpick.
• Place potato wedges in a large saucepan. Pour in canola oil to to cover halfway. Cook over medium heat, turning occasionally, until potato wedges are tender, about 20 minutes. Increase heat to high; cook until bacon is crisp, 3 to 5 minutes more. Drain on a plate lined with paper towels.
• Mix butter, honey, green onion, parsley, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl.
• Remove toothpicks from potato wedges and transfer to a platter. Drizzle melted butter mixture on top.

Steps:

• Combine all dry ingredients in a large bowl, breaking up any lumps.

• Refrigerate 1 hour.
• In a large skillet or deep fryer, heat 4" oil to 350 degrees F.
• Drop batter by tablespoonfuls into the hot oil.
• Do not crowd.
• Cook until dark golden brown and cooked through, about 1 minute on each side.
• Drain on paper towels.
