GLUTEN-FREE FRIED MOZZARELLA STICKS



Gluten-Free Fried Mozzarella Sticks image

Yes, Virginia, there is such thing as a gluten-free fried mozzarella stick that tastes just like the "real thing"! These are so very tasty. Many thanks to Zaar user "GlutenFreeGirl" for her input and help with this recipe. IF YOU'RE GLUTEN-FREE: Be sure to use a GF flour with a very fine consistency (no almond meal, corn meal, etc). "Recipe #201072" works perfectly. For bread crumbs, I used Ener-G's Fine Bread Crumbs - Other GF brands available include Miss Roben's, Gillian's Foods and El Peto. This is definitely a job for fine, dry breadcrumbs rather than fresh ones. If you can get your hands on gluten-free Italian flavored bread crumbs, then eliminate all of the herbs and spices that the recipe calls for. IF YOU CAN EAT GLUTEN: Just use regular breadcrumbs and regular flour (same measurements). Bon appetit!

GLUTEN-FREE MOZZARELLA STICKS



Gluten-Free Mozzarella Sticks image

Baked mozzarella sticks that are crispy on the outside and gooey inside. Even though they're not fried, with this recipe, they get crunchy without the mozzarella running out. The trick is in the dredging process and ingredients. Extra egg whites and light-as-air rice flour create a lighter coating. Quadruple-dipping creates a crispy outer coating usually absent from gluten free foods. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.

Time 1h45m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (8 ounce) package low-moisture mozzarella cheese
½ cup superfine white rice flour
2 egg whites
1 egg
1 cup gluten-free bread crumbs
1 tablespoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
⅛ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
¼ cup olive oil

Steps:

  • Cut mozzarella cheese into 4x1-inch sticks.
  • Place rice flour into a shallow dish. Whisk egg whites and egg together in another shallow dish. Mix bread crumbs with oregano, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and turmeric in a third dish.
  • Dredge one mozzarella stick through the rice flour, making sure to cover all four sides and the ends. Tap off excess flour, then dip stick into the egg mixture; turn with a fork to coat completely. Drain off any excess egg. Dredge thoroughly through the rice flour and eggs again. Shake off excess, then roll into the bread crumb mixture. Dip once more into the eggs and coat with bread crumbs again, covering the ends to prevent the cheese from melting and leaking through. Place stick on a freezer-safe plate. Repeat process for each mozzarella stick.
  • Cover the plate of mozzarella sticks with plastic wrap and freeze for 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set the timer for another thirty minutes.
  • Fill an oil sprayer with olive oil. Remove sticks from freezer and arrange on the prepared baking sheet; spray tops with olive oil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes. Remove from oven and close oven door; turn sticks over and spray with oil. Continue baking for 5 minutes more. Continue turning, spraying, and baking the remaining two sides, about 10 minutes more.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your mozzarella bites. Choose a good quality mozzarella cheese, and use fresh bread or breadcrumbs.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the mozzarella bites tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together, then stop.
  • Chill the dough before frying: Chilling the dough before frying will help it hold its shape better. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Use a deep fryer or a large saucepan: You'll need a deep fryer or a large saucepan filled with oil to fry the mozzarella bites. Make sure the oil is hot enough before adding the mozzarella bites, or they will not cook evenly.
  • Fry the mozzarella bites in batches: Don't overcrowd the pan when frying the mozzarella bites. Fry them in batches so that they have room to cook evenly.
  • Serve the mozzarella bites hot: Mozzarella bites are best served hot and fresh. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce, such as marinara sauce or ranch dressing.

Conclusion:

Making gluten-free mozzarella bites at home is easy and fun. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can enjoy these delicious snacks anytime you want. Whether you're serving them as an appetizer, a snack, or a party food, gluten-free mozzarella bites are sure to be a hit.
