Subj : 8/11 Fair Fare - 5 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Sat Aug 09 2025 13:44:28 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Deep-Fried Pickles Categories: Five, Vegetables, Snacks Yield: 32 pickles Peanut oil 1 qt Dill pickles 1 c Buttermilk 2 c Plain cornmeal 1 tb Kosher salt; or more Fill a 5 quart Dutch oven halfway with peanut oil. Set over medium-high heat and bring to 400ºF/205ºC. Remove the pickles from their brine and cut lengthwise into quarters, like spears. Lay the spears on a half sheet pan lined with paper towels and pat them dry. Pour the buttermilk into a shallow dish. In a separate dish, mix the cornmeal and salt together. Dip each pickle, one at a time, first into the buttermilk, then into the cornmeal and then repeat. Carefully place each spear into the hot oil and cook until golden brown, approximately 2 minutes. You can fry 3 to 4 pickles in the pot at a time. Adjust the heat, if necessary, in order to maintain a constant temperature of 400ºF/205ºC Transfer the pickles to a cooling rack set inside a half sheet pan and allow to cool for 5 minutes before eating. Season with additional salt, if desired. Recipe by: Alton Brown RECIPE FROM: https://altonbrown.com/ Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM ....
