Cheese Curds

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    In a shallow bowl, place the flour. In another bowl, whisk the eggs. In a third bowl, place the breadcrumbs mixed with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Coat the Cheese Curds

    Take each cheese curd and dip it into the flour, then into the eggs, and finally coat it with the breadcrumb mixture.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  4. 4

    Fry the Cheese Curds

    Carefully add the coated cheese curds to the hot oil in batches, frying until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve warm with honey mustard for dipping.
