How to Make Fried Mushrooms/Twisted Mike’s

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated pecorino

Nutritional yeast provides a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.

Clean the white mushrooms by rinsing them in water and wiping them dry to remove dirt.

In a bowl, mix together 1/2 cup of flour, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, 1/4 teaspoon of dry mustard, and 1/4 teaspoon of paprika.

Preheat the deep fryer to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

Coat the cleaned mushrooms lightly in 1 cup of buttermilk.

Dredge the buttermilk-coated mushrooms in the flour mixture to ensure it sticks.

Prepare a cookie sheet with parchment paper and place a wire rack on top for draining the fried mushrooms.

Heat peanut oil in the deep fryer to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.

Drop the basket into the hot oil to prevent the mushrooms from sticking.

Carefully add the mushrooms that are about the same size to ensure even cooking, frying them for approximately 3 to 4 minutes.

Remove the mushrooms from the oil and place them on the wire rack to drain excess oil.
