DD> MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Southern
DD> Fried Deep-Fat Fried Fat Categories: Pork, Breads, Snacks Yield:
DD> 16 Servings 1 lb Ham fat; with skin, in 16 - squares
DD> 1 qt Oil, tallow or lard
DD> MMMMM---------------------------BATTER--------------------------------
DD> 2 1/2 c Sifted flour 2 c Cold water +=OR=+ 2 c
DD> Club soda Egg yolks pn Salt Cut the ham fat into
DD> 16 equal, squarish pieces. Set aside. Put oil/tallow/lard into a
DD> deep fryer or a fondue pot to heat. While the cooking oil is heating to
DD> 360�F/180�C ...... Make the batter. I prefer to use club soda as
DD> it gives a lighter (and I think) crispier batter. You may use plain
DD> old cold water if you wish. A couple (or three) egg yolks help hold
DD> things together and blend in. When the oil is hot, dip the chunks of
DD> fat into the batter and fry in the hot oil until golden brown.
DD> Serve hot. If you have batter left over you may want to fry up some
DD> batter-dipped crudities (cauliflower or broccoli florets, onion rings,
DD> or bell pepper strips/rings) as an accompaniment. Serve with your
DD> favourite hot-pepper sauce on the side. FROM: The fevered brain of
DD> Uncle Dirty Dave, in his kitchen one dark and stormy night. Inspired by
DD> the glut of fried "stuff" hawked at fairs and expositions. This ain't
DD> "healthy" in any key. But it IS tasty. Uncle Dirty Dave's Kitchen
DD> MMMMM
