Country cooking often is associated with southern cooking, at least in the United States. Recipes feature no-nonsense meals made of unassuming ingredients that are often locally sourced. Various dishes are associated with country cooking, from macaroni and cheese to grits to collard greens.
Buttermilk biscuits also are high on the list. Hush puppies are another treat that often are whipped up in country kitchens. Legend states that these crispy bites were tossed to hunting dogs so that the dogs wouldn’t bay and scare off the game planned for the evening’s meal.
Hush puppies can be served in lieu of bread or muffins alongside grilled and fried fish, or other meats. Javascript is required for you to be able to read premium content. Please enable it in your browser settings.
