This is from my celebrity recipe collection. I'm not sure I will ever try this, mind you.

• 1 1/4 tablespoons paprika

You really should try these, Fried Dill Pickles are the best! You can also use dill pickle chips. Sonic used to sell them at "some" of their locations until a few years ago.....

Really good fried pickles. I made these for hubby, son, and hubby's cousin. My son walked out of the room and came back in a few minutes later and wondered why they were all gone. Followed the directions exactly. Thank Lennie for a great recipe.
