Most people do the cop-out and take the easiest thing they can possibly come up with, without ever having to actually prepare anything.

INGREDIENTS:

Key ingredients for this recipe include:

Fine Yellow Corn Meal

Salt

Flour

Pepper

Kosher Dill Pickles

INSTRUCTIONS:

The Texas Chef provides a complete ingredient list, measurements, and each step for making Lone Star Fried Pickles at the The Texas Chef website. The first step in the recipe has to do with draining/straining the slices of pickles, which might be one reason others who have tried this type of thing before experienced some disappointment. If they’re not properly drained for excess moisture, the batter and subsequent deep frying won’t necessarily work. But once you have the proper instructions, such as with this recipe, you’ll understand completely why these appetizers make a great conversation starter as well as help to fill the void!
