good taste, recipe is a little off on the quantity’s, you have to add more cornmeal til you get the right consistancy.

I can noit recall putting a dislike in my mouith like this recipe. It was bland, jalapeno over taking, greasy,soggy except for the outside crust. I have a professional deep fryer and followed the exact directions. This recipe is an insult to my taste buds.
