Why are fried pickles so good? They are crunchy, they can be dipped in any sauce, for instance remoulade, mayo, ranch, ketchup etc.

How to fry pickle? First you need to slice or cut into strips, then dip in flour and water mixture which is the easiest batter ever. After that, heat an oil in frying pan. The perfect oil for this recipe is vegetable, peanut oil, corn, canola or sunflower. Each of these oils will produce a slightly different flavor.

How long do fried pickles last? You can keep them on the countertop for a day. However, they taste the best right after frying. Also, you should keep in mind they will be cold after few hours and they will lose crunchiness a little bit.
