Fried Pickles With Spicy Remoulade Recipe
- 2 cups kosher dill pickles (about 4 pickles), drained and sliced, plus 1 tablespoon pickling liquid, divided
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 2 teaspoons hot sauce, divided use
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire
- 1 1/4 teaspoons cayenne, divided use
- 1 gallon vegetable oil for deep-frying
- 3/4 cup prepared mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons spicy brown mustard
- 1 green onion, thinly sliced
- 1 1/2 cups self-rising flour
- 1 cup finely crushed saltine crackers, about 3/4 of a sleeve
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 eggs, beaten
- Combine pickles, buttermilk, 1 teaspoon hot sauce, Worcestershire and 1 teaspoon cayenne in a resealable container. Marinate in refrigerator until pickles are very cold and infused with flavor, about 1 hour.
- While pickles are marinating, combine mayonnaise, mustard, reserved pickle juice, remaining 1 teaspoon of hot sauce, remaining 1/4 teaspoon cayenne and green onion in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Combine flour, crackers, onion powder, black pepper and salt in a large bowl. Lightly beat eggs until frothy in separate, small bowl.
- Preheat vegetable oil to 350u0b0F in a deep-fryer or Dutch oven. Remove pickles from refrigerator and drain in a colander. Dip pickles in eggs, and plunk them in the flour mixture, taking care to thoroughly coat them. Shake off excess breading. Fry in batches until golden, 3-5 minutes.
- Remove with a slotted spoon and set on paper towels to drain. Serve immediately with remoulade for dipping.
