OT: Flo & Eddies cheese sticks

[RivaDawg]

It's been a while back, but someone posted the recipe for Flo & Eddies fried cheese sticks. Anyone still have it?

Let's observe a moment of silence...

Glad this was posted, I spoke with a friend that was a kitchen manager recently because this has always been a little off. While frying, you will lose too much panko. The missing step is to dip in egg/milk then dip in seasoned flour then back to the egg/milk and then roll.

My bad guys!

Yea - I tried that recipe a few years ago and had that exact problem. I will update accordingly.

so this is the directions:?

Cut Mozz into 3/4"-3/4"-6" Segments
- Mix milk&egg
- Empty breadcrumbs into flat toasting pan or
casserole dish
- Dip cheese into milk/egg mix with left (wet) hand
- Dip cheese into seasoned flour with left (wet) hand
- Dip cheese into milk/egg mix with left (wet) hand
- place cheese on pan and roll with right (dry) hand
- remove wet clumps from pan when necessary
- Place sticks in freezer bag and freeze solid
- Cook frozen Stick 5-7 minutes in deep fryer

That's it. It might be easier to pre-flour them all at once though.

Wouldn't it be better to freeze them on a tray?

Seems like freezing them in a bag would risk knocking off the breading and/or having them stick together.

Probably wouldn't hurt if you have the freezer big enough to do it. I put mine in rows separated by wax paper when freezing in the bag. That helps a lot by insuring they aren't all stuck together, but if I had a freezer big enough for the tray, that would work alot better, just be sure to bag them after they're solid.

Thank you, Six Pack, for this thread, for contributing to the greater good of society. And I'm not even kidding.

 

[tenureplan]

Ill add one more thing

This is going to work best if they are suspended when you are frying them. You will need some sort of fry basket. If not, they will sink to the bottom and you will puncture them either trying to keep them from sticking or when trying to fish them out.

What is the flour seasoned with?

 

[aTotal360]

DS has a deep freeze that is exclusively used for frozen cheese.

 

[The Peeper]

Dales steak sauce, what else would a bona fide Six Packer season with?

 

[tenureplan]

Don't have a 100% answer for that. I'm pretty sure Flo's bought it pre-seasoned in bulk.

 

[amcdan2000]

Are they as good as Harvey's?

 

[00Dawg]

What we really need is their stuffed mushroom recipe...oh, and crawfish etoufee. Man. So much goodness taken from us too soon.

I was there the night it burned down, and I have heard a million stories about what happened. Does anyone actually know or at least have the widely accepted story? I know old news, but was always curious.

i worked there for 4 years. great place and the food was great. very unappreciated lunch special too. and yes, the cheese sticks killed Harvey's. not even close. i was there the night it burned down. wrote a check for my tab, around $150, burned the check up! so it was a win/lose situation. i miss that place....... i have a menu framed in my house.

 

[aTotal360]

Friction fire.

 

[dawgstudent]

I had $90 in my checking account to last me the remainder of the semester. The bar tab that night was $65. I never was charged.

RIP Flo's.

Clever post. Genuine question that got a genuine answer from other folks in the thread. A**clown.

The "joke" was always that Hunt Club's $10 all you can drink specials had hurt Flo's business so much that the insurance check was more valuable. If it hadn't burned down, it would probably still be the most popular bar in Starkville.

That's a friction fire. It happens when the mortgage note rubs across the insurance payout.

 

[tenureplan]

I worked there for a time too. I wasn't working there when it burned down though. I have heard some things from a reliable source, but I'm not going to drag anyone through the mud based off of secondhand info.

 

[dawgstudent]

What about dragging them through clean, pure, white snow?

Is that a real euphemism? Or did you just make that up? I like it either way.

now your talking the Flo's language. i worked part time at a gas station also, and one of the mechanics was also a fireman. he told me they had a lot pinned to James for the fire, but nothing major. he did it right apparently. left change in the pool tables, didn't clean out the safe. lots of big things he did right (when starting your own fire), but there were lots of things that pointed to him. last time i saw him, he was operating a mechanical bull at the fair

Actually, I better not tell you how to do all that.

chill out pal.
I will have you know, I guess i was a senior in HS when I had my one and only mat shot. I can still taste it, sometimes. Sadly it burnt before I got to bask in it's glory. Heard many a story.

 

[tenureplan]

Was that intentional?

If so, well played
