I have another use for those sweet onions. Hush puppies. If you’ve never heard of them, that’s ok. They’re a Southern thing. Cornmeal, finely minced sweet onions, buttermilk, egg. Deep fried for just a couple of minutes. They look like donut holes but don’t taste like them.
Last week I got the recipe from an old family friend. I ordered hush puppy mix from a Carolina company on her recommendation, and the mix got here on Saturday. I made up a batch that evening, and they tasted just like I remember!! Score a big win with help from family and friends. 😍
They’re addictive.
I agree on the Hush Puppies. I attended an Army Training Course at Camp Beauregard, LA and we had them at every evening meal. :)
We also had a Land Navigation course in the swamps which was ever-so-much fun. (Not!)
The hardest part was understanding my Cajun-speaking Instructors, LOL!
