Time 37m

Yield approximately 32 pickle spears

Number Of Ingredients 5

Peanut oil
1 quart dill pickles
1 cup buttermilk
2 cups plain cornmeal
1 tablespoon kosher salt, plus more, if desired

Steps:

  • Place enough peanut oil in a 4 to 5-quart cast iron Dutch oven to come halfway up the side of the pot. Place over medium-high heat and bring to 390 to 400 degrees F.
  • Remove the pickles from their brine and cut lengthwise into quarters, like spears. Lay the spears on a sheet pan lined with paper towels and pat them dry.
  • Place the buttermilk in 1 shallow dish and mix together the cornmeal and salt in a separate dish. Dip each pickle, 1 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 390 to 400 degrees F. Transfer the pickles to a cooling rack set in a half sheet pan and allow to cool for 5 minutes before eating. Season with additional salt, if desired.

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups vegetable oil for frying
3 cups Italian-seasoned bread crumbs
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper

Tips:

  • Choose the right pickles: Look for pickles that are firm and crisp, such as dill pickles or gherkins.
  • Use a light batter: A light batter will help the pickles stay crispy. A simple batter made with flour, eggs, and milk is a good option.
  • Season the batter: Add some seasonings to the batter for extra flavor. Garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper are all good choices.
  • Fry the pickles in hot oil: The oil should be hot enough to fry the pickles quickly and evenly. A temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit is ideal.
  • Drain the pickles on paper towels: After frying, drain the pickles on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
  • Serve the pickles hot or cold: Deep-fried pickles are delicious served hot or cold. You can serve them with a dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing.
