Description

These cheese curds are beer battered and deep fried, and make for a real Wisconsin treat. A perfect way to enjoy this melty gooey irresistible snack.

• 2 quarts corn oil for frying

• 1 cup all-purpose flour

• 3/4 cup beer

• 1/4 cup milk

• 2 eggs

• 1/2 teaspoon salt

• 2 pounds cheese curds, broken apart

1 Gather all ingredients. Heat corn oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

2 Whisk together flour, beer, milk, eggs, and salt to form a smooth, rather thin batter.

3 Place cheese curds, about 6 or 8 at a time, into the batter, stir to coat, and remove with a wire strainer.

4 Shake the curds a time or two to remove excess batter.

5 Deep fry curds in hot oil until golden brown, 1 or 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels; serve hot.
