>fried chicken
>chicken fried steak
>fried pork chops
>french fries
>fried catfish
>hushpuppies
>hot water cornbread
>fried pies
>fried pickles
>fried onions
>fried cheddar peppers

I grew up in the South. I'm probably forgetting something.

I eat fried food way more than people tell me I should, but I don't eat five pieces of catfish, either. I'll have a piece of fried catfish, steamed rice, baked beans, greens, some raw onion and tomato, etc.

It's a luxury to have on the plate and you make it last the entire meal or eat it at the very end.

exactly and the great thing is if it tastes good in a regular burrito it will taste great when fried to a nice golden crispy heffering up goodness. and then if you make homemade tortillas

The other night, my friends and I caught some speckled trout in the Gulf of Mexico. So that night, while we had the fryer hot, we breaded some fresh-picked okra, made onion rings, and even fried potato chips, sliced translucent courtesy of my immaculately maintained Wusthof. My buddy's girlfriend even did a few oreos for good measure. Great food and plenty of pale lager made the night a frying event we won't soon forget.

I love me some fried mushrooms. Also, tempura fried sweet potatoes are fucking delicious. Potato wedges with cheese and bacon are also fucking great.

What I'd love to try if I ever found out I was dying, and had nothing left to live for, is beer battering and deep frying a cheesesteak.

I LOVE deep-fried Oreos. I actually went to the fair this past weekend and paid $5 to get in just so I could have some carnie-made deep-fried Oreos.
Guess how high my level of disappointment was when they didn't have them this time.

[Anonymous No.3942391]

One thing I ate sticks out.

When I went to Japan I was served these little fried cheese balls, not sure what was in them but it had a very creamy and neutral flavor. It was served with raspberry preserves, and was one of the best non-Japanese dishes I had while I was there.

Can I get a recipe for this?

[Anonymous No.3942478]

>>3942449
1 pound okra pods, stem ends cut off, sliced 1/4-inch thick. salt, cold water, yellow cornmeal, salt and pepper (black)

Cut the okra into a bowl, then sprinkle liberal amounts of salt on and wet it with very cold water. Refrigerate the okra for at least 1 hour. Drain it and roll the okra slices in cornmeal seasoned with salt, pepper, and any herbs until it's well-coated. Fry it in a deep skillet in about 1/2-inch of hot oil until that shit's golden brown. Drain out the grease first because holy shit there's gonna be a lot. Okra is great with any kind of dip, and especially with marinara. It's also a decent side with any pasta that has a tomato-based sauce.

In that tomatoes have quite a high water content and that that can soak into the batter after they've been fried? I've had that with homemade onion rings before.

I've never heard of fried pickles...

Anyway, onion rings, shrimp, mozz sticks, jalapeño poppers, hush puppies, french fries, tortilla chips, corn dogs, surely more. Love this stuff.

There's a mexican restaurant one town over which I used to live by and they deep fry the tortillas for tacos so that they are fairly crunchy yet oddly still pliable. It's a bit messy but so damned good.

ya take the arms and legs of baby chickens
deep fry them in batter
cover them in a sauce made of some mix of hotsauce and butter or something
and you even a lil bit of ranch if the sauce is too spicy for you

it's so delicious, you'll even eat the celery because of its association with the wings

They are fantastic, but it seems like a lot of people don't know the glory of fried pickles. When I was in San Diego, the county fair didn't even have them available and FRIED FOODS ARE EVERYWHERE.

I ended up asking one of the lead fry-food purveyors if they would fry a pickle up for me, and the nice man even said he'd do it for free if I brought him a pickle. Boy, was it delicious.

Basically, they are crunchy, salty, sour, juicy things that are great in ranch dressing or any other cream-based dip.

>ranch on buffalo wings
>Abomination

It depends what Ranch you are using, but the answer is mostly (with Hidden valley, ALWAYS) no.

It's not an abomination. Milkfats cut poultry fat quite elegantly, and while Ranch is quite 'herbal' it is not out-of-bounds.


Though, an ideal wing-dip would be sour cream cut with horseradish. Can't have it all.

No, I really don't. I was told multiple times that they were pan-fried (the batter around the octopus) to get the crispy flavor. Not deep fried, but fried anyways? I always thought it was that way, but if it isn't, then I stand corrected.
