Hey everybody .
Welcome to the Wolf Pit today .
I'm gonna be making fried pickles or some people call them freckles , whatever you wanna call them , they're gonna be delicious .
So let's get started .
I'm using Phil's Dill pickles today , which I've recently discovered is probably the best pickles on the planet .
These are the hot and spicy ones and look at how much flavor is packed into each jar , all the herbs and spices .
The first thing I wanna do is get some of the moisture out of the pickles .
So I'm gonna put them on some paper towels and blot them dry for the dry ingredients .
I'm gonna have some all purpose flour , which I'm not gonna season at all .
There's plenty of season already in the pickles .
The other dry ingredient is yellow cornmeal that I'm only gonna season with black pepper .
We'll Sprinkle these with salt as they come out of the oil .
And now for the wet part , I'm gonna combine one egg and a quarter cup of milk .
Now whip them like they stole your lunch money .
Now let's get our pickles coated , just dip it right into the flour , get them thoroughly coated .
Then into the egg wash and now into the corn meal and repeat this process until all your pickles are coated .
Once all the pickles are coated , pop them into the fridge for 10 or 15 minutes and that'll help all the breading stay on them when you fry them .
Now , these are gonna fry in 350 degree oil for about 2.5 to 3 minutes just until golden brown for a full printable copy of this recipe and many more recipes visit the Wolf Pit blog after three minutes , our pickles are done .
Remove them , drain them on paper towels and Sprinkle with salt .
And there you have it Southern Fried pickles served with ranch dressing for dipping .
And as you can see , I did not have to add a lot of seasoning to these pickles because Phil's doughs are already packed with a lot of flavor .
Regular pickles from the grocery store , you're probably gonna have to add a little bit more seasoning to it .
And if you've never tried fried pickles , you gotta give them a try .
They're absolutely amazing .
Thank you guys very much for watching .
I hope you give these a try and I'll see you next time .
