If you’ve never tried fried pickles, you’re going to love them.
Think of all the great things about a pickle: salty, tangy, juicy, and mouthwatering.
Add a crispy, fried panko coating, and I promise you it’s an explosive combination. You won’t be able to stop eating them!
To bread them, we do the same thing we do with breaded shrimp, for example.
- First, they go in flour.
- Then in egg.
- Finally in panko.
I wanted them to be extra crispy, so I actually dipped them twice in egg and panko.
