Made with Shullsburg Creamery Cheddar Curd

Ingredients:

• 9 ounces Shullsburg Creamery Cheddar Curd
• 1 cup flour 
• 3/4 tsp cayenne pepper
• ¾ tsp. black pepper
• a dash of salt
• 2 ½ cups buttermilk
• ½ cup beer

Combine flour and seasoning.  In a separate bowl combine buttermilk and beer.  Place the cheddar curd in a deep strainer and submerge in beer/buttermilk mixture for 30 seconds.  Drain and place curd into the flour mixture, coating completely.  Dump curd and flour into a coarse strainer placed over an empty bowl.  Gently shake excess flour from the curd.  Gently spoon the curd into the deep fryer.  Fry about 90 seconds (let curd float for the last 30 seconds or until golden brown).  Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
