Cheese Curds

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cheese Curds

    In a bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk.

  2. 2

    Coat the Curds

    Dip each cheese curd into the flour mixture, then into the egg mixture, and finally coat with breadcrumbs. Make sure each curd is fully coated.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

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

  4. 4

    Fry the Curds

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

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the fried cheese curds hot with sliced jalapeños, diced habaneros, and a side of ranch dressing for dipping.
