Heat about 3 inches Crisco Shortning or Crisco oil tp about 365 degrees in a deep iron skillet or deep fat fryer.

Combine cormeal, flour, baking soda, and salt in large bowl.. Stir in buttermilk, egg & onion. Drop by the tea or table spoonfull, a few at a time into the shortning or oil. Fry 2 minutes or until dark golden brown. Turn as need to brown evenly. Remove with a slotted spoon & drain on paper towels. You can also substitute cornmeal mix for the cornmeal, baking soda, & salt. Makes about enough for 8 Bubbas

There are about as many ways to make hushpuppies as there are people who eat 'em so I'm sure other Bubba's will disagree with me here.
