Fried Pickles

While watching the Food Network the other day I saw a food that I just I would have to try.  Ok, I haven't gotten around to trying it yet but I will.  It was on the show "Diners, Drive ins and Dives.  A place here in NC has this.  I LOVE dill pickles, so when I saw this my mouth started to water!  What the heck am I talking about?  Get ready:  Fried Pickles!!  Yup, fried pickles.

I found a few recipes on the net but this one sounds the most like what I saw on the TV:

FRIED PICKLE CHIPS  

3 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
3/4 tsp. salt
3/4 tsp. pepper
1 c. buttermilk
1 qt. hamburger dill chips
Vegetable oil

Combine flour, salt, and pepper, mixing well. Dip pickles into buttermilk and dredge in flour mixture. Deep fry coated pickles in hot oil (350 degrees) until they float to surface and are golden brown. Drain on paper towels or brown paper bags and serve immediately. Makes 8 dozen.

Another one that sounded ok was here: Deep Fried Pickles Recipe: Recipes: Food Network

 Have any of you had a fried pickle before?  If you try to make them let me know how it goes.

I also saw on the Style network how to make fried cheese.  Here is the recipe for it: Crispy Mozzarella Sticks - mystyle.com  Gonna have to try that one too.

I love cheese and pickles!  I think you could/should have them with almost every meal you eat!  Really!  I think I got my love for cheese from my granny  -- she ate a little cheese with every meal.

Nothing going on around here.  I did go to Subway and pick up a turkey/ham sub for lunch.  Yum, I love Subway.

When I went to visit DS#4 and his family last Spring, we had fried pickles at the restuarant we went to.  They were very good.  The kids didn't like them much but the adults did.  'On Ya' - ma

I go through cycles of loving pickles and then there will be weeks and weeks where I can't stand the thought of them.  Same with olives.  Weird.

I love pickles but fried I don't know. Sounds interesting.  Can't wait for you to make it and tell us about them.

I'm not that much of a dill pickle fan, but I'd give them a try.
