Fried Pickles

Step 1

In a shallow dish, combine buttermilk, seasoning salt, and pepper. Place pickles in mixture and set aside.

Step 2

Pour the flour, cornmeal, salt and pepper into a large, resealable plastic bag; shake to mix well.

Step 3

Add pickles a few at a time, tumbling them gently to coat evenly with the flour mixture. Remove and place on prepared plate.

Step 4

In a heavy and deep pan, heat oil to 350 degrees F.

Step 5

Fry pickles in several batches until golden brown and slightly crisp on the outside with a moist interior, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels.

Step 6

Let cool, and serve immediately. Ranch or other creamy dipping sauce is recommended.
