Buttermilk Fried Clam Roll With Spicy Pickle Dressing Recipes

BUTTERMILK ROLLS

Steps:

• Heat the buttermilk, butter and sugar in a pot until simmering; whisk in the baking soda, then let cool to lukewarm. Meanwhile, put 1/4 cup lukewarm water in a bowl and stir in the yeast; let stand 5 minutes. Whisk the yeast mixture into the buttermilk mixture.
• Whisk the flour and salt together in a large bowl. Add the liquid and mix until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough in the bowl until it comes together and is smooth, about 2 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand 30 minutes.
• Butter a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish. Divide the dough into 12 pieces and roll each piece into a ball. Arrange the balls in the buttered dish. Lightly cover with plastic wrap and let rise until nearly doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Bake the rolls until puffed and golden brown, about 15 minutes. Serve warm.

CLAM ROLL

Steps:

• Preheat a grill.
• Combine the flour, corn flour, salt, and white pepper. Dip clams in evaporated milk then dredge in the seasoned flour mixture. Fill a deep pot halfway full with oil and heat to 350 degrees F.
• Fry the clams in the vegetable oil for approximately 1 to 2 minutes (depending on size), until golden brown. Lightly butter a split-top hot dog roll and grill on both sides. Place clams on roll and enjoy.

FRIED SPICY IPSWICH CLAM ROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat the fryer.
• Season the clams with Creole seasoning. In a mixing bowl, add the clams, hot sauce and milk. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour. Remove and drain completely. In a shallow bowl, combine the cornmeal and flour. Season with Creole seasoning. Dredge the clams in the seasoned flour, coating each clam completely. Fry the clams, in batches until crispy and golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the clams from the oil and drain on a paper-lined plate. Season with Creole Seasoning.
• To assemble, spread the tartar sauce on both sides of each roll. Arrange 1 dozen clams on 1 side of each roll. Top the clams with Maw-Maw's Slaw and serve.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly.
• Place the egg, mustard, onions, garlic, lemon juice, parsley, capers and green onions in a food processor and process until smooth. Season with salt and cayenne. With the processor running, pour the oil through the feed tube in a steady stream. Cover and let sit for 1 hour in the refrigerator before using. Best if used within 24 hours.
• Place the white cabbage, red cabbage, greens, red onions, green onions, and parsley in a large salad bowl. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, mustard, salt, black pepper, cayenne, and sugar. Mix well. Add the mixture to the greens and toss to mix thoroughly.
• Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Serve chilled. The slaw can be made 3 hours ahead.

CRISPY FRIED PICKLES WITH BUTTERMILK DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven or heavy pot, preheat the canola oil to 375 degrees F. Using a mandoline or sharp knife, slice the pickles into 1/8-inch-thick rounds.
• Place the panko breadcrumbs into a food processer and pulse until finely ground, 3 to 4 pulses. Place the panko into a medium mixing bowl and add the granulated garlic, paprika and some salt and pepper. Place the flour into a separate medium mixing bowl. Place the buttermilk into another medium mixing bowl and season with the hot sauce.
• Begin coating a few pickle slices at a time by first dredging into the flour and patting off the excess. Then place the floured slices into the buttermilk. Allow the excess to drip off, then transfer to the seasoned panko. Coat in panko then set aside. Repeat until all of the slices are coated.
• To fry, carefully place a few battered pickles into the hot oil. Cook until golden brown on the first side, 2 to 3 minutes. Then carefully turn over and cook for 2 minutes more. Using a slotted spoon or sieve, remove the pickles and place onto a paper-towel-lined dish to drain. Season with salt and serve hot with the Buttermilk Dipping Sauce.
• Whisk together the buttermilk, mayo, chives, cumin, dill and cayenne in a medium mixing bowl to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
