To get started with this recipe, we must first prepare a few components. You can cook texas toothpicks using 8 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you cook it.
The ingredients needed to make Texas Toothpicks:
- Get 1 box premade batter (or use homemade)
- Prepare 1 paprika to taste
- Get 1 garlic powder to taste
- Make ready 1 salt
- Get 1 pepper
- Get 1 cayenne pepper
- Make ready 1 bunch jalapeno peppers (how many depends on the people you're trying to feed. I used 8 big ones feeding 2)
- Make ready 1/2 white onion (again, feeding two)
Instructions to make Texas Toothpicks:
- Heat a pan with oil on medium heat or medium high to 350°F. I used a stove top deep dryer.
- Mix your batter and seasonings together. Keep in mind that the premade seasoning can taste saltier before frying.
- Wear gloves and proceed to cut the stem end off and cut the pepper in half length wise. Take the gloved thumb and run it down the side, removing the seeds. Then cut each half again (length wise) getting 4 to 5 slivers from each half.
- Do the same with the onion. You want to cut it in half (end to end) and then follow the lines on the onion for your slivers.
- I threw it all in the batter. And at first used the basket with the dryer but they stuck to the bottom. So I then just took a spotted spoon and just spooned them into the batter free form. Then used a wired slotted spoon (specifically for frying and boiling) and took them out when they were golden brown. No more than a couple of minutes)
- As you can see from the picture, my batter didn't stay on real well. So will try different things in the future and edit as I go. I am even going to try baking. Any positive comments or suggestions are welcome.
