Ingredients

For sauce:

  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • 2 cups canola oil
  • 1/4cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish
  • 1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Crystal Hot sauce
  • 2 tablespoons chopped scallions (green part only)
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced

For the pickles:

  • 1 1/2 cups sliced dill pickles, drained and patted dry
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 1 cup masa harina
  • 2 tablespoons Essence Creole seasoning, recipe follows
  • Oil, for deep-frying

Directions

Prepare sauce: In a blender combine eggs, salt, and juice of half a lemon. Process briefly to combine. While motor is running, add oil in a slow, steady stream until mayonnaise has emulsified. Transfer to a non-reactive bowl and add all remaining ingredients. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside to serve with fried pickles.

Drain pickle slices on paper towels. Combine the eggs and milk. Coat pickles with egg wash. Combine cornmeal and masa harina and season with Essence. Transfer pickles to seasoned cornmeal, shake off any excess, and deep fry in 350 degree F. oil in batches until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Drain well on paper towels before serving with SPICY DIPPING SAUCE alongside BBQ PULLED PORK WRAPS.

    @lepleysteel You dont have to add mayonnaise to the dipping sauce. What you are blending together IS the Mayonnaise. Hope this helps.

    I think this will be really good but the receipe doesn't specify how much mayonnaise to use in the dipping sauce. Can anyone tell me?

    The cornmeal based batter is too harsh. I think a lighter batter would do fantastic.
