Rounds of deep-fried pickles are well-known as pub and fair food, but at this year's Arizona State Fair, Get Pickled served up a variation on this treat.
Described as a "cousin to pickle chips," these pickle fries are made from long, thin slices of pickles that have been dipped in batter and deep-fried. To top off the treat, the pickle fries are sprinkled with Parmesean cheese for a mix of flavors that's crisp, tangy and sweet. Flavors are further enhanced with an assortment of dipping sauces like ranch, chipotle or sweet chile.
For a heartier variation on this easy finger food snack, Get Pickled also serves the pickle dog, a twist on the classic corn dog that swaps the meaty interior for an artisanal pickle.
