Steps:
- Wash and trim zucchini, (DO NOT PEEL).
- Cut zucchini into about 2 1/2" long by 1/2" thick strips.
- In a medium-size mixing bowl, beat eggs and milk until fluffy.
- In a plastic bag, add flour, seasoning salt and shake well.
- In a separate plastic bag, add finely crushed saltine crackers.
- Dip zucchini strips in egg mixture.
- Drop into flour mixture and shake well to coat.
- Dip again into egg mixture.
- Drop into crushed crackers and shake well to coat.
- Heat olive oil to 325 F to 350 F in a medium-size frying pan or use a deep fryer.
- Drop coated zucchini (a few at a time) in the hot oil and cook until lightly browned, about 2 minutes, turning once, (DO NOT OVERCOOK).
- Zucchini should be crunchy.
- Serve immediately with Bearnaise Sauce as a dip.
- SAUCE FOR DIPPING: Prepare contents of Bearnaise sauce according to package directions or make your own.
- NOTE: Instead of using plastic bags, place the flour mixture in a mixing bowl, and the crumbs in a separate bowl. This will not be quite as messy.
- Also, Panko crumbs would be excellent or cornflake crumbs.

OLD FASHIONED FRIED ZUCCHINI STRIPS
My mom used to make fried zucchini and I think my grandma (her mom) did too out of all of those great fresh garden picks in Pennsylvania. I love this flavor but wanted to make it my way, with a dipping sauce.

FRIED ZUCCHINI
This is a good, very basic recipe on how to fry zucchini. There are no frills, but it's delicious. The crust is light and fries to a golden brown. When zucchini is abundant definitely prepare a batch (or two) of these fried zucchini sticks. If you like a thicker crust, double dip the zucchini. After the flour, dip it in the egg...

Steps:
- 1. Depending on the size of your skillet, use enough oil in a skillet to make it about 1/2" deep. I always use olive oil.
- 2. Slice the zucchini lengthwise in approximately 1/4" strips. Lightly salt and pepper the zucchini slices.
- 3. Beat the eggs and milk mixture until well blended.
- 4. Mix the flour and a small amount of salt and pepper in a large bowl.
- 5. Dip the zucchini in the egg and milk mixture.
- 6. Then flour each slice well. Shake off any excess flour before adding to your hot oil.
- 7. Heat the oil to medium-high, when the oil is hot enough, carefully drop in the zucchini one at a time. Here is a good tip to test the hot oil: Use the handle of a wooden spoon or a wooden chopstick. When the oil has pre-heated, dip the handle of a wooden spoon or a chopstick into the oil. If the oil starts steadily bubbling, then the oil is hot enough for frying. If the oil bubbles vigorously, then the oil is too hot and needs to cool a bit. If you don't see any or very few bubbles pop up - then the oil is not hot enough.
- 8. Turn the zucchini on each side after letting the bottom brown well prior to turning (or you will lose your batter). The zucchini slices are done when they are a nice golden brown on each side.
- 9. Drain on paper towels. Serve hot with some of your favorite dipping sauces!
- 10. Holly's Dipping Sauces: Here are a couple of my tried and true recipes for dipping sauce ~ Holly's Hot Horsey Sauce: Using about 1/2 cup of mayonnaise, add about 1-2 Tbsp of prepared horseradish (I buy the small jars of prepared horseradish in the condiment section of my grocery store) and mix well. Horsey Ketchup Sauce: Use approximately 1/2 cup of your favorite ketchup and add between 1-2 Tbsp of fresh prepared horseradish. Ranch Dill Dip: Using about 1/2 cup of ranch dressing, add fresh diced dill and mix well. Cucumber Ranch and Herb Dip: Using about 1/2 cup of ranch dressing, add approximately 1/4 cup diced cucumber, 3-4 sprigs of diced cilantro, basil, and oregano. Mix well.
