Some years ago, I was a cook on a large cattle ranch. One day, I thought back to the hush puppies I’d had as a child on a southern trip, and I ended up creating my own version of them. They go well as part of an old-fashioned fried chicken dinner with mashed potatoes and gravy, buttermilk biscuits, corn on the cob and watermelon pickles! —Karyl Goodhart, Geraldine, Montana,
