Look pretty good. Would definitely eat. What kind of setup did you use for frying them?

Thanks :) They were ok for a first attempt, would try again :)

2L of peanut oil in a large cast iron Dutch oven on the stove top. If you time the pot at a certain temperature setting (electric stove) it has a good gentle frying temperature.

Made buttermilk fried chicken that night too.

I'll definitely have to give this a try. Makes perfect sense. I'm not sure why I never considered using a dutch oven for frying before. Tall enough to avoid splatter w/ even fairly even heat distribution.

Its good, I need a frying thermometer to get the best results but there are so many different kitchen gadgets you can get.

Do you have any tips or tricks that might help somebody improve upon them?

They look amazing, and I would love to try them out.

The recipes I saw said soak them overnight or 8 hrs but I only got to soak them for about half an hour cause I didn't read that the day before so a longer soak would be good.

Open the petals as gently and fully as you can to get the flour/breadcrumbs right down in the cracks.
