Pickling Cukes Recipe Recipe For Fried

DELICIOUS DEEP FRIED PICKLES

Steps:

• Combine bread crumbs, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper in a bowl; set aside. Whisk egg and milk together in a separate bowl. Dip dill pickle spears into the egg mixture, then into the bread crumb mixture until well-coated. Dip the pickles in the egg and bread crumb mixtures a second time so each spear is double coated. Arrange pickles in a single layer on a baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the freezer until the breading is set, about 30 minutes.
• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Fry the pickles in the preheated oil until light golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

HOW TO PICKLE CUCUMBERS (QUICK METHOD)

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, combine the vinegar, garlic, water, salt, and honey if using.
• Bring to a boil, then simmer for 5 minutes, whisking occasionally.
• While waiting for the brine to cook, place the dill in the bottom of a quart-size jar.
• Add a few layers of cucumber slices. The cucumbers can be sliced as thick or as thin as desired, but the thinner they are the faster they'll pickle.
• Add a layer of onions (if using), then more cucumber slices, repeating until the jar is nearly full. Leave about ½ inch of head space at the top of the jar.
• Pour the brine over the pickles, put the lid on, and place it in the fridge. If you don't have enough liquid to cover the pickles, then add some more vinegar and water in equal amounts until you do.
• Wait at least 12 hours before eating the pickles (the longer you wait the more flavorful!).
• Tip: Since these are going to be kept in the fridge, a canning jar isn't necessary. Whatever heat safe lidded glass jar you have on hand that's big enough will work.

NASHVILLE HOT FRIED PICKLES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a large bowl, toss the cucumbers and onion with the pickling salt, making sure every piece is well coated. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours.
• After 2 hours, thoroughly rinse the cucumbers and onion to remove any excess salt. Transfer to a clean large bowl.
• Make the pickling spice mix: In a small bowl, mix together the yellow and brown mustard seeds, black peppercorns, red pepper flakes, and celery seeds.
• Make the pickles: Scoop 2 tablespoons of the pickling spice mix into each of 3 16-ounce mason jars. Add 2 cinnamon stick halves, 1 habanero, 2 sprigs of dill, and 3 cloves of garlic to each jar. Divide the cucumbers and onion between the jars, packing tightly.
• In a small pot, combine the water, apple cider vinegar, white vinegar, and sugar. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook until the sugar has dissolved, 5-7 minutes. Transfer the pickling liquid to a heatproof measuring cup.
• Carefully pour the pickling liquid into each jar, leaving ½ inch of headspace at the top. Use the back of a spoon to press down on the cucumbers and onion until completely submerged.
• Tightly screw the lids onto the jars and let sit at room temperature for 2 hours, then transfer to the refrigerator overnight, or up to 2 weeks.
• Make the comeback sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, chili sauce, ketchup, hot sauce, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, mustard, garlic powder, and black pepper. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use, up to 1 week.
• Make the Nashville spice mix: In a small bowl, whisk together the paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, onion powder, mustard powder, and black pepper. Transfer to an airtight container and store at room temperature until ready to use. The spice mixture will keep for up to 6 months.
• Fry the pickles: In a medium pan fitted with a deep fry thermometer, heat the canola oil over medium-high heat until the temperature reaches 350°F (180°C). Set a wire rack over a baking sheet or paper towels.
• Drain the pickles, discarding the pickling liquid and removing any lingering pickling spices, onion, and garlic.
• In a shallow dish, whisk together the buttermilk, hot sauce, and 1 tablespoon of the Nashville spice mix.
• In a separate shallow dish, stir together the bread crumbs and ½ tablespoon of the Nashville spice mix.
• Dip the pickles in the buttermilk mixture, then transfer to the bread crumbs, using your hands to pat the crumbs into each slice until fully coated.
• Working in batches, fry the pickles in the hot oil for 3-4 minutes, until golden brown all over. Transfer to the wire rack and season with kosher salt. Reserve 1 cup of the frying oil.
• In a medium, heatproof bowl, combine 2 teaspoons of the Nashville spice mix, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, and the reserved frying oil. Whisk until the sugar dissolves.
• Brush the hot oil mixture over the fried pickles. Transfer to a platter and serve with the comeback sauce for dipping.
• Enjoy!
