Steps
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
Add the grated onion, one beaten egg, and buttermilk to the dry ingredients.
Pour in the beer and stir until the batter is just combined.
Gently fold in the Maryland lump crab meat, being careful not to break up the lumps too much.
Heat oil in a deep fryer or heavy pot to 365°F (190 °C) (185°C (375 °F)).
Drop rounded tablespoons of the batter into the hot oil, working in batches to avoid overcrowding.
Fry until the hushpuppies are nice and golden brown on all sides, about 2-3 minutes.
Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Serve warm with remoulade sauce for dipping.
Notes
The author suggests serving these with lobster lollipops and a simple remoulade sauce. The beer helps create a lighter, fluffier texture in the hushpuppy.
