These deep-fried hush puppies are crunchy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside, slightly sweet and just a little kick of cayenne pepper. Just add some melted, salted butter. These are a must with any seafood dish! Fish, crabs, shrimp, etc.

You can use any deep fryer but we recommend The Microfryer because it works on your gas or electric cooktop and uses just 1 cup of oil. For this recipe we're using healthy avacado oil.

Deep Frying

October 17, 2023

Deep frying is a very popular cooking method. Unfortunately, it is also considered unhealthy since deep fried food represents higher calorie intake when compared to non-fried food. With frequent consumption it can lead to unwanted weight gain. Even though deep frying sounds for some people almost scary, it is simply submerging food in hot oil which leads to instantly cooking the surface while moisture is trapped in the food and keeps cooking the food from the inside.
