Steps:
- Place the vegetable oil in an 8-quart stainless steel soup pot and place on medium heat until the oil reaches 350 degrees F. Place the flour in a medium mixing bowl and, with a slotted spoon, add the Bread and Butter Pickles to the flour. Coat the pickles with the flour, making sure they are individually coated, as the pickles tend to stick together. This is easy to achieve if done in 2 or 3 small batches. Add the pickles to the hot oil and fry, turning once, until golden brown and crispy on both sides. Drain into a paper-towel-lined mixing bowl to absorb any excess grease. Season with kosher salt. Serve on a small plate with a ramekin of Buttermilk Chive Dressing.
- Slice the cucumbers 1/4-inch thick by hand or on a mandoline into large mixing bowl. Toss the cucumbers with the pickling salt and cover with a thin layer of ice. Set aside for 4 hours. Drain, rinse and drain the cucumbers again. Toss the drained cucumbers with the mustard seed and crushed red pepper. Transfer to a storage container, leaving enough room for the brine. Make the brine by combining the vinegar, 4 cups water, the sugar and turmeric in a nonreactive saucepot. Brine to a boil and pour over the cucumbers. Let cool to room temperature before storing in a refrigerator for 3 weeks before using.
- In a small mixing bowl, add the sour cream, buttermilk and apple cider vinegar and whisk until the ingredients are incorporated. Add the chives, dill, sugar, and salt and pepper to taste and stir once more. Cover and store in the refrigerator until ready to use. For best results, do a day or two ahead of time before using.

HONEYED BREAD AND BUTTER PICKLES
This recipe is from "Canning For A New Generation" by Liana Krissoff, and I'm posting it in response to a request. I haven't tried it but it sounds pretty good. She gives directions for pasteurizing the pickles or for processing them. Supposedly, pasteurizing results in a crisper pickle. You could also add 1/4 teaspoon of pickle crisp to each jar if you are processing them, to help keep them crisp. Prep time includes overnight soak; "cooking" time is processing time.

Steps:
- Cut off the blossom end of each cucumber; cut into 1/4-inch rounds.
- Cut the onions in half lengthwise and thinly slice them into half circles.
- Put the cucumbers and onions into a large bowl and sprinkle with 1/4 cup of kosher salt, tossing to combine. Cover with a layer of ice cubes and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight.
- Pick out any unmelted ice, drain well, and rinse under cold running water. Toss with the mustard seeds, celery seeds, and red pepper flakes and set aside.
- In a non-reactive pot, combine the vinegar, 1 and 1/2 cups water, the honey, turmeric, mustard powder, and the remaining 1 tablespoon kosher salt. If pasteurizing, bring the mixture to 160º to 180º on a candy thermometer. If processing, bring to a full boil.
- Working quickly, pack the cucumbers and onions into the jars (not too tightly), leaving 1" headspace. Ladle the hot vinegar mixture into the jars, leaving 1/2" headspace at the top. Use a chopstick to remove air bubbles around the inside of each jar. Use a damp paper towel to wipe the rim of each jar to remove any brine which may have gotten on the rim, then put a flat lid and ring on each jar, adjusting the ring so that it's just finger-tight. Place the jars in the water bath, making sure they are covered by at least 1" of water.
- If pasteurizing, bring the water in the pot to 180ºF, and keep it there, adjusting the burner as necessary, for 30 minutes (use a candy thermometer to monitor the temperature). Any time the water spends below 180ºF must be added to the pasteurizing time so that the water is at 180ºF for a total of 30 minutes.
- If processing, bring to a full boil and process for 15 minutes.
- Remove the jars from the water bath, place on a folded towel, and do not disturb for 12 hours.
- Check that the lids have sealed by pressing down on the center of each; if it can be pushed down, it hasn't sealed, and the jar should be refrigerated immediately. Label the sealed jars and store.

Steps:
- Combine bread crumbs, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper in a bowl; set aside. Whisk egg and milk together in a separate bowl. Dip dill pickle spears into the egg mixture, then into the bread crumb mixture until well-coated. Dip the pickles in the egg and bread crumb mixtures a second time so each spear is double coated. Arrange pickles in a single layer on a baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the freezer until the breading is set, about 30 minutes.
- Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Fry the pickles in the preheated oil until light golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

Steps:
- Seed Peppers if you like, I didn't. Finely Chop Peppers (I used a food processor to chop the peppers tiny) Example of Mixture of Peppers I used: Jalapeño, Banana Pepper (Sweet & Hot), Cherry Bombs,Cubanelle & Chili Peppers.
- Mix mustards, vinegars, honey, coconut sugar, coconut oil, flour, water and kosher salt in the pan. Whisk mixture together well to dissolve the flour and then stir in the finely chopped peppers. Once combined place on the stove and stir frequently to avoid sticking to your pan. Once mixture comes to a boil continue to boil and stir for five minutes or until desired thickness.
- Ladle into hot, sterilized jars. Cap with hot lid and of course the ring and process in a hot water bath for ten minutes.

Tips:
- Use fresh pickes. Fresh pickles will give you the best flavor and texture.
- Cut the pickles into uniform slices. This will help them cook evenly.
- Use a light batter. A heavy batter will make the pickles greasy.
- Fry the pickles in hot oil. This will help them get crispy.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. If you overcrowd the pan, the pickles will not cook evenly.
- Serve the pickles hot. Fried pickles are best served hot, with your favorite dipping sauce.

Fried pickles are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties or game day gatherings. With a crispy coating and a tangy flavor, fried pickles are sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you are looking for a tasty treat, give fried pickles a try!
