Oh I don't know Doug. Perhaps if we cook with self rising flour!
Give my recipe a try. In the words of Andy Griffith, its GooOOooood!

I'd suggest adding some finely diced onion, preferably wild onion or ramps.
Used to be relatively common in restaurant hushpuppies but now it is going
the way of sweet iced tea. The South apparently is not going to rise again
after all.....

Absolutely! But this mix has onions in it. Just looked at
the package I had and it says 'HushPuppy Mix with Onions'.
However, I don't know if this means they also sell a mix
without onions.

Onion is great in hushpuppies.

I'm looking at a data file for Winn Dixie, and it shows a mix without
onions. UPC 73484-12303, WD code 0520038767. Carried by their Raleigh NC
division. Also carried by Merchants Distributors, Hickory NC, their code
19258. Shouldn't be hard for a retailer to order a case.

Correction to my previous post. The brand is House-Autry and not
House of Autry.

With all this talk of hushpuppies, I started craving a fish fry
and fried up some fish and hushpuppies for dinner.

Instead
of mayonnaise they fix it with a sugar and vinegar dressing. Probably
black

Marzetti makes a pretty good cole slaw dressing in a jar. But, stores never
put it right there with the other salad dressings. It's always off to the
side with the quirky stuff, with names like "Organic Sue's Stone Ground
Poppy Seed Dressing". There's also a dry mix that my ex's mother uses which
is spectacular. She says the stores keep it in the produce department.
Greenish packet. I think she just adds milk.


Try this "Old-Fashioned Sweet-Sour Cole Slaw" from the Brookville
Hotel (Since 1870) in Brookville, Kansas

1 1/2 pounds shredded green cabbage
1 teaspoon salt
2/3 cups sugar
1/3 cup vinegar
1 cup whipping cream

Place shredded cabbage in covered dish in refrigerator for several
hours. Mix ingredients in order giver 30 minutes before serving.
Chill and serve.

I always hated Cole Slaw till I tried this recipe.

Yeah....bladder cancer from a dip in a cool lake! I don't know if I'd take
little kids fishing there, unless there was a second adult to make sure
their hands never went near their mouths until they'd washed.

It could be that these problems are relatively recent. I was in PR from
1951-1954, about 50 years ago. We fished from the bank. I don't recall any
warnings or worries about getting in the water, however.

Now, now, Doug...it isn't nice to force reality into the picture here.

While living in Jacksonville and St. Augustine, Florida, some years ago,
I was horrified by the prospect of the military's "superfund" sites
adjacent to heavily populated areas. One of them, a Naval Air Station,
was right on the St. Johns River, a waterway popular for all sorts of
recreation, including fishing and boating.

Isn't the Bush Administration planning to exempt the military from
anti-pollution regs? Won't that have a nice impact on our waterways and
fisheries?
Only a twit would turn a hushpuppy thread into another forum for his politics.
