Cheddar Cheese Curds Croutons

Recipe by Jamie Feit

 

Ingredients:

1 pack of The Cheese Guy Cheddar Cheese Curds
About 2/3 cup to 1 cup of avocado oil (depending on your pot size)
1 tablespoon tapioca starch
½ teaspoon baking powder

 

Directions:

1. In the small mixing bowl, whisk together the tapioca starch and baking powder.


2. Add the cheddar cheese curds to the bowl with the dry mixture. Gently toss them until they are evenly coated with the slurry. Ensure each curd has a light dusting.


3. Pour enough avocado oil into the small saucepan or deep-fryer to fully submerge the cheese curds. Heat the oil over medium-high heat.


4. Carefully add a small batch of the coated cheese curds to the hot oil. 


5. Deep-fry the cheese curds for 1 to 2 minutes, or until they are puffed and golden brown.


6. Remove the fried cheese curds from the pan and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Allow the deep-fried cheese curd croutons to cool slightly before using them to top your favorite soup. They are best enjoyed fresh for maximum crispiness
