Ingredients
- 2 pounds cheese curds
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons garlic salt
- 1 large egg room temperature
- 1 1/2 quarts canola oil or more depending on the size of your pan
Instructions
- Heat 1-2 inches of oil to 375°F in a large cast iron skillet or dutch oven. A thermometer helps to monitor the oil so it doesn't get too hot or too cold.
- Whisk the flour, buttermilk, baking soda, garlic salt, and egg until it makes a smooth batter.
- Dip the cheese curds in the batter a few at a time to coat, then add them to the hot oil. Be careful not to overcrowd the pan or the oil temperature will drop.
- Fry the cheese curds until golden brown, turning them partway through. Transfer the fried cheese curds with a slotted spoon to a wire rack set over a baking dish to drain. Repeat with remaining cheese curds.
