Homemade Mozzarella Sticks are a deliciously ooey-gooey snack that’s easy to prepare. This recipe’s trick is to freeze them before frying them. It turns out that they’re pretty simple to make at home, and they taste much better when they’re new. Read more When making them, there are a couple of tricks to keep in mind; they should be breaded twice to ensure a dense enough shell to hold the cheese inside. And to freeze them for at least two hours before frying them because the cheese can ooze out of the shell, which is unpleasant. The advantage is that you can prepare these ahead of time and freeze them, then fry them when you’re ready. https://letscook.fun/homemade-fried-mozzarella-sticks/ See less
