Sarah and Anna’s Breading for summer squash and more
Ingredients:
• 1 cup flour and ¾ cup corn meal (mixed together) or 2 cups flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 egg yolk
• ½ teaspoon ground pepper
• 1 cup ice water
• Olive oil enough to generously coat bottom of skillet
Preparation:
• Combine salt, pepper, and half the flour (or flour cornmeal mixture) on a plate.
• Lightly beat the egg yolk. Mix egg yolk and ice water.
• Add other half of the flour (or flour cornmeal mixture) to the egg and water. Don’t overmix.
• Take whatever you are breading (tofu must be very dry, zucchini,summer squash, other things) and dip it in the dry mixture on both sides. Shake off extra flour.
• Dip the piece in the wet batter.
• Heat up skillet. Add olive oil to thickly coat pan (you want veggies to slide easily but not float in oil). Pan fry veggies.
