Fair Favorite Corn Dogs Recipes

CORN DOG RECIPE - EVEN BETTER THAN AT THE STATE FAIR!

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt and pepper.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk.
• Pour the wet ingredients into the cornmeal mixture, whisking until batter is well incorporated.
• Transfer batter to a shallow pie plate or tall thin glass for easy dipping.
• Remove hot dogs from package and pat dry with a paper towel. Insert wooden skewer into each hotdog, at least half way through.
• Heat oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 360ºF.
• Line a plate with paper towels.
• Working in small batches, dip and roll each hot dog in the batter until it's completely coated. Shake off any excess batter and lower it into the hot oil.
• Fry the corn dog until lightly browned, about 3 minutes.
• Transfer it to the paper towel-lined plate and let drain.
• Repeat the process for the remaining hot dogs.

A PLUS FAIR CORN DOGS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a deep fryer to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, stir together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt. Stir in melted bacon drippings. Make a well in the center, and pour in the egg, buttermilk, and baking soda. Mix until everything is smooth and well blended.
• Pat the hot dogs dry with paper towels so that the batter will stick. Insert wooden sticks into the ends. Dip the hot dogs in the batter one at a time, shaking off the excess. Deep fry a few at a time in the hot oil until they are as brown as you like them. Drain on paper towels or serve on paper plates.
