Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups dill pickle chips drained
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 tsp cayenne
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 4 cups oil for frying

Method
 

  1. Pat the pickle chips very dry with paper towels.
  2. Dredge in flour mixed with cayenne, dip in buttermilk, then coat in cornmeal.

Notes

Drying the pickles well keeps the oil from splattering.
