我一直在国内找石磨的粗黍米粉就是为了要做这个小食。据说以往的猎人带着猎狗出外守猎，猎人准备餐点，一旁的猎狗吠叫，猎人就会用黍米粉加水和调味品用营火炸了丢给狗吃，Hush 的意思是叫它闭嘴。
我爱面粉味，第一次吃到这东西时就很喜欢，之后一看到就买来吃，回到国内还念念不忘。或者我吃的是回忆，喜欢的是那一段快乐逍遥，连吸一口气都觉得自由、开心的日子。
这是网上抄来关于Hush Puppies 的历史：
History of Hushpuppies
Hushpuppies are finger-shaped dumplings of cornmeal that are deep-fried and traditionally served with fried catfish. Also know as corn dodgers, they are especially popular throughout the South. There are several interesting stories of the origins of hushpuppies:
Hunters and trappers could be on the trail for days at a time. At suppertime the hunting dogs would get hungry, so the hunters would mix a batter out of cornmeal or flour and cook it in grease on the campfire. Then they would throw the fried dough to the pups, telling them to be quiet, shut up, or "hush."
