Preheat oil in deep fryer or large, deep skillet or pan to 375°F. Do not overfill. Leave at least 2 inches of space at top of fryer or pan. Use "high smoking point" frying oil such as peanut, safflower, sunflower or canola.

In a bowl, combine the House-Autry Hushpuppy Onion Mix, chopped clams, scallions and clam juice. Stir until combined. To test the oil temperature, place a little piece of the dough into the oil. If it browns nicely after 60 seconds, the oil is ready.

Take two soup spoons - one for the batter and one to push it off into the oil - and gently place the hushpuppy batter into the oil. Cook for 5 or 6 minutes until golden brown. Use slotted spoon to remove Yankee Hushpuppies. Place on paper towels on wire racks to drain.
