Deep Fryer - Deep Fried Pickles and Jalapenos

As an expert grill and barbecue fanatic, I wanted to come up with something really good to serve as an appetizer, so I searched and found my brain. Deep Fried Pickles. That's right, deep fried pickles. I also added mushrooms and jalapeno peppers to the mix as well, and the man came out great! I'll share my secrets with you to spread the love around in all their meetings. It is very easy to do, but it takes a little time to get it right - without cutting corners on this one babies food companion. I had these first, and only the State Fair of Texas many years ago, and the memory just bubbled from the depths of my brain that I was thinking what to try ... and was a good thing!

Let's start, ok? (Do not worry - I'll take you through the entire process step-by-step).
First, combine 2 eggs and 2 cups of milk in a large bowl along with 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, a tbsp cracked black pepper and a teaspoon of nutmeg. Beat vigorously (I can not believe I just wrote that) for about 30 seconds and set aside. That was not so bad really.

Then take a good size Tupperware container or a gallon plastic bag and add the following:

3 cups flour
1 cup cornmeal
2 tablespoons dry mustard
2 tablespoons oregano
Season 2 TBSP Salt
White Pepper 1 TBSP
1 TBSP Red Pepper
1 TBSP garlic powder
1 TBSP THYME

Now place the lid, or close the bag and shake vigorously.
Keep stirring - and deliver it from time to time. Keep stirring and turning for about a minute. You get to see all the spices and seasoning mix with flour. This is what you want.
* Note: Make sure the lid is on, or the bag is firmly closed ... I learned this the hard way! *
Reserve.

You want to have dill pickle chips, despite what the blogosphere says ... Dill Pickle Chips! Wash the peppers and mushrooms very well, and then Pat completely dry with a paper towel, along with pickle chips. Deseed jalapenos and cut into slices about 1 / 4 inch thick book with pickles and mushrooms (White Onion Rings would work as well, again if you want!). After all the main ingredients are completely dry ... throw them in the washing of eggs. Let them set for about five minutes to absorb the wash.

What do you do now, and he will be confused at first, is to take a slotted spoon and remove the pickles / mushrooms / peppers wash eggs and move them to the dry material in plastic bag or Tupperware container. .. one at a time. Do not rush this process, you'll have a goopy, sloppy mess on your hands if you will.

Now, gently stir and turn the bag / container until the dry mix covers all vegetarians. That's it ... stir gently and in turn, shake and shift. This may take a few minutes, but make sure the veggies are coated. This is why you have to make sure that is not slop the egg wash on dry mix ... we'll do it again, and if the egg wash is abandoned in the dry mix ... you have to dry corn flour in your hand! Do not drip the egg wash in the dry mix.

Now, vegetarians transfer back to the wash - Do not pour the dry mix in it! Take them out one at a time and gently place them back into the egg wash. Once all the pickles / peppers / mushrooms are back in the egg wash ... take the skimmer and move them into the bag of dry mix / container again. Stir again. Turn again for about a minute.
That was not so hard was it? Messy, maybe, but that will come with time ... or thyme.

Okay - here's where it gets strange but true: Take all the vegetarians out of the dry mixture and place them one at a time, on a cookie sheet. Yep. A cookie sheet. Try to space them out so they will not stay together. Now place the cookie sheet of kindness pickled pepper mushroom in the freezer for 30 minutes. Yes, the freezer - for 30 minutes. Do it.

Heat a cast iron skillet or fryer to 375 degrees (and I would recommend Peanut Oil). As the temperature is up, take the veggies out of the freezer and place them in hot oil ... not all at the same time, however. Pickles and Peppers first and not all of them - you'll need enough of them to fill the fryer or frying pan, but not enough that the oil spills over the sides of the appliance to cook! Take your time. they will be fine. Mushrooms should be the last and by themselves.

Cook until the dough becomes Golden Brown - 4 minutes, but we need to eyeball and see for yourself. One tip to note is that if the outside of any fried food seems very dark while it is still in the oil ... it burned! Pull it when it comes to 2 shades of golden brown lighter than you want, and they continue to cook for a while after removing it.

Next Tip: Use newspaper (pages in black and white only) to the bottom line the pot or bowl you're going to put in the deep-fried. The newspaper will absorb much more fat than paper towels, and will not become mush and keep the food!
