Andouille Hush Puppies
Andouille Hush Puppies
Hush puppies are a delicacy all over the south, from Texas to North Carolina. These little balls of fried dough consist of a cornmeal dominant base mixed with grated onion, an egg, and buttermilk. To spice it up, I added diced andouille sausage to the batter. The hush puppies only take a couple of minutes to assemble and a few more to fry. Serve them with remoulade sauce or a spicy creole mustard.
