Try Rocket Money for free: RocketMoney.com/highfalutin #RocketMoney #personalfinance Keto Hushpuppies? • Low Carb Hushpuppy RECIPE! Today we test out a low carb hushpuppy idea inspired by the viral Tik Tok video that swept the keto world: Parmesan Balls. Did we come up with a viable option? Let's find out. --------------- RECIPES WE WERE INSPIRED BY Parmesan Pearls by: GialloZafferano on Tik Tok www.tiktok.com/t/ZTL525nYQ/ #Hushpuppies #LowCarbHushpuppies #ParmesanPearls --------------- **Since the Primitive Palate website has been down for a while, I have posted the original recipe below, and will link to it from the Internet Archive that has it stored. Internet Archive Link: web.archive.org/web/20230610171858/theprimitivepalate.com/2015/02/08/pork-rind-tortillas/ -- Keto Pork Rind Tortillas Servings: 12 six inch tortillas Time: 20 minutes Difficulty: easy Ingredients 4 oz. Hot & Spicy Pork Rinds (regular work just fine, too) 1 (eight oz.) package cream cheese, softened 8 eggs 1/3 cup water 1 tablespoon granulated garlic 1 tablespoon ground cumin Method: 1. Place pork rinds into a food processor and blitz for about 10 seconds, until they are dust. 2. Add all other ingredients to food processor and blitz for about 45 more seconds. Until you have a nice smooth batter. 3. Preheat an electric griddle to high. (Using a non-stick pan on the stove top would work also, I would just set the heat to medium-high) 3. Spray cooking surface with a little spray oil (I use either coconut oil or olive oil spray) and pour 1/3 cup of batter onto griddle. 4. Gently spread the batter as thin as you can with a rubber spatula and cook for about 2 minutes or until golden brown. 5. Flip tortilla and continue to cook for about 45 more seconds. 6. Repeat with the rest of the batter. *These tortillas can be made ahead and wrapped in plastic, or stored in the freezer! -------------- PRODUCTS USED IN THIS VIDEO OOO Flavors Corn Bread: amzn.to/3w2RXLV ProTeak Cutting Board: amzn.to/3mX5P5K My Amazon Shop: www.amazon.com/shop/highfalutinlowcarb (We are a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for us to earn fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites.) --------------- "SIFT Y'ALL" AND OTHER HIGHFALUTIN' MERCHANDISE Get your "SIFT, Y'ALL!" shirts, hoodies and aprons by visiting: shop.spreadshirt.com/lowcarb -------------- MY SOCIAL MEDIA LINKS Website: www.highfalutinlowcarb.com Patreon: www.patreon.com/highfalutinlowcarb Facebook: facebook.com/highfalutinlowcarb Twitter: twitter.com/hf_lowcarb Instagram: instagram.com/highfalutinlowcarb Shirts & Aprons: shop.spreadshirt.com/lowcarb Amazon Shop: www.amazon.com/shop/highfalutinlowcarb Email Inquiries: wes (at) highfalutinlowcarb (dot) com Music by Epidemic Sound -------------- THE HIGHFALUTIN' KITCHEN STUDIO GEAR Front Camera (Canon 70D): amzn.to/3dQed0a Front Camera Lens (Canon 24mm Prime): amzn.to/3qYXLhR Overhead Camera (Canon G7Xiii): amzn.to/2NHLWy3 Switti RGB LED Lights: amzn.to/3dV71zX Neewer LED Ring Light: amzn.to/3kxZwQz Comica Wireless Lavalier Mics: amzn.to/3ku9uCG Neewer Heavy Duty C-Stand: amzn.to/3uxBlGx

Wes, this Georgia girl is going to add a little minced onion, the corn bread flavoring and a Tblsp of pork rind flour, fry them up and then watch the magic happen! Thanks to you and to the Keto Twins for sharing this recipe. They preferred the green can version too.

[@dallasmitchell2484]

Green jalapeños in hush puppies awesome!!!!

[@truthmatters8241]

NOW you're taIking!! woot woot!

[@ritamyers5554]

Thanks for telling the “hush puppy” story. It has been the story ad long as I can remember and I am a walking talking Granny. Love your channel!!!

[@KetoSimple]

I made a short and it did well on Facebook, fizzled on the other platforms, I added minced onion. My great grandma used to make me homemade hush puppies! They were so good! I miss those like crazy!

[@HighfalutinLowCarb]

Nice! I grew up with a little grated onion in our hush puppies, too!

[@GrandmasHappenings]

These hushpuppies look so good. I'm going to add a couple tablespoons of pork rind crumbs/flour to get more of a bread like texture. Yum!

[@cathyg8702]

Oooo, sounds good.

[@carolbatchelor5855]

That sounds like a great idea!

[@mmanda515]

Was my thought too, so... please keep us posted as to the outcome. :) Sounds gooooood!

[@terrijuanette486]

They're Parm Puppies. I'll have to try this. Thanks for the video.

[@vivianspringer5142]

How cute! Just fir a snack as Wes said, "I will make these a lot!" That's the kind if thing I need to hear when searching for a recipe to make for my Husband who knows nothing about low carb... 😉

[@johneubank8543]

also, stir you corn essence drops into the egg whites, not the batter. It will mix much better that way

[@GotSomethingToSay]

I knew if you made these as a Southern Boy, I HAD to watch! I’m a Georgia girl myself and trust your SOUTHERN taste ❤

[@KathyBay]

I think I would add a tablespoon or two of almond flour to the real Parmesan recipe cause I don’t care for pork rinds but it might make them breadier like a real hush puppy. Looks good!!

[@judelbugsrutter6727]

It's so interesting... Aussie here, for a few years what I thought Americans were talking about when saying hush puppies (aside from the shoes) is what our KFC is calling 'popcorn chicken' and I was scratching my head watching the keto twins make hush puppies and not putting in any chicken... super cute story behind the legend of the name... reminds me of Waylan Jennings in the first season of Dukes if Hazard.

[@barrychristian4050]

They look great, at 10.00 I was thinking that could be a savoury profiterole with a bit of cream cheese piped inside?

[@truthmatters8241]

Oh, my!! nummy!

[@maddisonbythesea3015]

I can't lie, I'm a little excited about this! I LOVE hush puppies with malt vinegar 😋

[@deborah2592]

And ya need to try the parchment paper air fryer liners.....LOVE EM.

[@carolbatchelor5855]

I just tried air fryer liners for the first time, and I love them. I got a crispy fried texture, which was surprising to me. I had always expected the food to be soggy.

[@marymaryquitecontrary9765]

The Keto twins made this recipe a few months ago & today 4/19, they came out with a 2nd video trying some of their followers suggestions. They added 1 tsp of cornbread flavoring (and thought it was too much), they also added bacon bits & diced pickled jalapenos. They also preferred the outcome of the "green can stuff" to the fresh parm...

[@Love_Meat_Tender]

Maybe 1/2 tsp of the flavoring would work?

[@marvellashook3600]

Thank you Wes for being honest I don't do tic Tok so I never any of these tends till you do them so your never late to the game 😂

[@hamstring.]

I know it sounds weird, but I once made a keto cornbread by using a blended can of baby corn since baby corn is mostly "cob" lol, therefore low in carbs. Maybe something like that can be done here? Some blended baby corn? 😂 🌽

[@ahealthierkirk2558]

Anyone else screaming CORNDOGS at the screen? Yes!

[@kyliefan7]

For the non-sawdust wood version add maybe 1 or 2 tsp of Coconut Flour and change the texture!

[@cheffatgrams]

Now I want some fried fish 🤣😂 I have some walleye in the freezer I need to fry up🎉 Thanks Wes

[@patriciavavra7375]

Those look tasty! I have started using liners for my air fryer, saves on clean-up for sure. Spraying your food with a little avocado oil helps too.

[@HacksawsHobbyBunker]

The power of sawdust! Definitely going to try these.

[@personlady2438]

I had my first hush puppy in TN last month and fell in love. These look like hush puppies but I know they likely taste like bready cheezits. Will def try.

[@sheryltomlinson8382]

I am with your dad; no green stuff in hushpuppies! 😂 Loved the video!

[@saltybutsweet]

WOW!!!!! My mouth is watering now!!! Fantastic recipe, thank you so very much!!!!

[@kendramccabe1054]

I'm in the day late club all the time...thank you for sharing ❤

[@ginacurry4878]

I've made these and they're so good! They're good plain, even dipped in a little marinara is good too, but played around with it and made another batch. I added some corn extract, and a little minced onion and garlic powder. Pretty good!

[@deborah2592]

I wonder if doing a 50/50 blend of Victoria's keto flour and parm cheese with the egg whites would give you a less salty less cheesy but wholly satisfying hush puppy. Worth a shot? Or maybe a 1/3 each of parm, VKF & straight coarse almond flour (like Aldi's) would give a more cornmeal like texture (with egg white as the binder).

[@Janarae18]

I was thinking, maybe just a little bit of coconut flour added ? I always thought that coconut flour was kind of like cornmeal

[@bvirginia312]

I was wondering this myself I may give it a try

[@MaryvelFriesen]

Grad idea trying it with Victoria's flour.

[@veronicacanfield5070]

These fried beautifully, but to me they tasted like hot parmesan cheese. They were good if you are big into parmesan. However, the crispy crust on the outside was outstanding. I found myself digging the filling out and eating the crispy shell. Now I think I need to try frying something with parmesan and egg whites as the breading.

[@MrRosenleaf406]

As I have said before, I just love your positivity and joy, especially in the tasting. Great video! Looking forward to trying this!

These look so good. I’ve been wanting hush puppies and corn bread so bad. I actually ordered that cornbread flavoring last week to make chaffles with it to see if they taste like cornbread. When it arrives I’ll definitely make this. I bet it would be good if you finely mince some onion and add to it. Thank you for this video.

[@michellecorona4476]

Thank you, Wes! I was wondering what a Hush Puppy was, other than a brand of footwear. But all was made clear at 2:00 . Definitely going to try them.

[@amesstoday]

Thanks for the recipe.

[@MikePowersTSIG]

I'm going to try making these. I'm going to try adding cheddar cheese powder and jalapeño peppers and make low carb poppers.

[@tranquilitytravels2994]

Love your channel and I love hush puppies ❤ Thanks so much for your videos.

[@XmasCarol]

They sound really good. I would try equal parts of both cheeses in the recipe. Also, maybe incase a chunk of mozzarella cheese in these. Yummy.

[@RadBadJodster]

Looks great and as with others, saw on Keto Twins too! Yum and TY!!! ❤

[@veronicaheaney3464]

These sounded so interesting that I made a 1/2 batch of the original recipe with a bit of garlic powder added while watching the video. (That’s all the Parmesan I had that was already grated 🥴) I have had hush puppies before, years ago, and can’t say that the texture was right. However, as I finish writing this, I am also finishing (eating, that is) off the Parmesan pearls. Absolutely love them! Thanks so much for this recipe. So easy, even frying in oil though I do plan on trying it with the air fryer. I did use Parmesan that had potato starch as an anti caking agent, so there was no problem of the egg white not being absorbed. I usually use 100% cheese in recipes so I will be experimenting with additional acceptable ingredients to take up the egg whites. Thanks again for a recipe I would have missed as I don’t pay attention to TikTok nor Instagram.

[@ajohnpeters9801]

I'm Italian, there's no shame in the green can ! Cheese balls sound great . Thanks. Your right I think sauce or blue cheese.

[@2sweetcaroline]

Loved the Hush puppy story I'm wondering if you changed up the recipe a little by adding some coconut flower & more of the corn flavoring it might have more of a hush puppy flavor. I loved this video. Thank you so much!

[@seanofl]

Need this!

[@jenniferyoung7542]

I had hush puppies for the first time (in a restaurant in Memphis) recently and they are really yummy! I love all the different flavorings you use to doll up your recipes. Let us know if you make these again with more flavoring.😊

[@MisfitOne64]

💜 Saw the keto twins several months ago and again last night making these. I can't wait to try them! Watching you is a sign we must try them tonight!

[@leslielejeune8637]

Yes

[@VoidMusic824]

I wonder if the cellulose in the canned parm is what's making those more bready, since it won't really melt like actual cheese.

[@ruthhatcher6941]

Try with little bacon in them. Yummy

[@sandyhilgart3546]

I have tried these and loved them.

[@tamarajans]

That’s so cool, that the ‘cheap stuff,’ works best. Definitely going to try these. 🥰

[@nancyhickman9789]

Thank you for bring this recipe over from TikTok, cause I don't Tik😂 I made the second method with the Kraft version, and did 2 tablespoons first then added the third and cooked the Pearl's in my air fryer, to borrow another KZbinr "Delicious!" I too will add these to my favorite recipes

[@patismith204]

I saw this video the day it came out and was sooo impressed. I got the supplies and I just made them. OMG they are good. I used italian seasoning with the onion and garlic powders. Didn't have any corn bread flavoring. OMG, OMG, and OMG. I have never had hush puppies so no idea what they taste like. Again OMG, these are good. Thank you, I don't tic toc or instagram, you tube is about it for me. By the way I did use the green can.

[@repentnow1720]

Wes - take your hero bread ends, dry them, pulverize them, then add them to your cheese / egg mix - that will get them to be more bread-like.

[@calendra14]

You could try adding zanthan gum to the 100% paramasan recipe that should thicken it up

[@msmonet]

Great minds think alike! Keto Twins just posted these too today.

[@intensityInTenCities]

I watched this video, and decided to change it a bit. I used half Parm(canned), and half almond flour. Also used a tsp of baking powder. They turned out great! More bread like. Anyway, just putting this out there. 😊

[@jenmdawg]

Just found your channel and could not be happier. You have it all - great recipes, simple to follow your process, no selling keto (us old timers are well aware of the benefits of ketosis +leptin) and honest end reviews with accreditation where due. I am heading into year 8 of keto and 1-2 times a year I go searching for new recipes just to keep it fun/interesting and so that I have tasty things to bring to gatherings. This is an awesome recipe. I made the the packaged parm version in avocado oil. Wow. My only reservation is how salty they taste! I am also going to try other cheeses - including cheddar and mozz.

LOL been watching your videos for a couple of months now and just realized I wasn't subscribed, but I am now :) Anyway just wanted to say this is the 4th video I have watched about making these and all 4 did a side by side of real parm vs. canned parm. And 4 out of 4 said the canned parm was better in taste, texture and easy of use, so I won't waste my time even trying the real parm ones. Thank you for this great channel. Keep up the great work!

[@jarredmitchell6164]

You can put a little piece of parchment paper down in the air fryer. doesn't "fry" as quickly but keep it from sticking.

[@cyndimanka]

You could use that corn bread flavoring you were talking about. I got that because Steve from serious keto made some thing with it along time ago. The brand I got was ooo

[@skeeterradar]

just made some of these- added some finely chopped chives and i put a shrimp in the center of each ball,, very tasty,

[@MyWhitelye]

The keto twins just posted their own version of this . I'm going to have to try these out.

[@WingsDragonfly]

I use parchment paper developed for the air fryer. It might have made a difference in your air fryer experience. Thank you so much for this terrific channel.

[@Lorgayle1]

Awesome, can't wait to try these. I think I'll go right for the Kraft green can for parmesan. Question: When you cook in oil like this, what do you do with the oil afterward? TIA

[@marcellecostanza1777]

Woohoo! LUNCH!!!!🥰

[@hoboonwheels9289]

I line Airfryer with parchment paper (crumple to make it more placeable) to avoid contact with toxic non stick coating. Possibly not stick to pan either. I wonder if reducing cheese and adding pork rind powder would make difference?

[@IrinaZumba]

All wood is cellulose, but not all cellulose is wood. That being said, the Keebler rice crispy treats literally puts saw dust in to the treats. For the canned parmesan ch eese, it might be a different cellulose. Also, that cheese is completely dry, add the cellulose to that and it essentially acts like a flour.

[@nadiacusan3799]

I’m going to make them with a salad they look good

[@Pamela-B]

I was thinking they reminded me of good ol’ fashioned state fair cheese curds. Yum! 🧀

[@mycreativeescape]

Those look so good! What if tou used a little finely ground almond flour and add some diced onion and jalapeno? Sign me right up!

[@paulapfarrjackson6580]

What if you added a little bit of almond flour and more corn flavoring? I think you might do a video where you’ve re-created some different ideas using almond flour

[@CountryKeto]

I just wanna say Wes, I just love you!

[@beckyev1965]

I'm thinking I'll try mixing in some milder cheese with the parmesan, like Monterey jack - it'll be moister, so there may be some adjusting needed, but this really looks great - thanks for the demo!

[@risasklutteredkitchen1293]

You should call them South American cheese bread! That is what they look like. I can find them at Trader Joe’s and these would be so much cheaper. I am going to have to try these. They look so good.

[@maghurt]

Man, do I love a hushpuppy. Thanks, Wes!

[@Lucinda_Jackson]

Thank you, Wes! I'm definitely making these for a snack tonight when I watch a movie. I think I'll make a batch with your recipe minus the corn extract and replacing the parsley with dried basil or oregano or Italian seasoning. I plan to dip them in marinara as you suggested. I'll also try a small batch with some Victoria's keto flour (bamboo fiber version) added to your recipe using the parsley and adding a little pork panko for the grittiness of cornmeal (but not so much they taste of pork rinds). Hoping they come out more like hush puppies. 🤞🏻🤞🏻
