And if you’re going to be making classic PA Dutch Schnitzel, why not use traditionally styled Unique Sourdough Rings pretzels for the breading? We’ll show you how!
Ingredients
1 bag Unique Sourdough Rings
4 4oz. boneless pork chops
4 cups apple cider
1 tbsp. light brown sugar
1 tbsp. kosher salt
4 large eggs
⅓ cup whole grain mustard
¾ cup all-purpose flour
3 cups vegetable oil (for frying)
Freshly ground black pepper
Salt
Instructions
In a medium saucepan combine apple cider, brown sugar, and 1 tbsp. kosher salt. Bring to a boil and reduce to half. Pound pork chops to ⅛” thickness. Let apple cider cool, then add pork, cover, and chill at least 6 hours. Place about 6 oz. of Unique Sourdough Rings in a large freezer bag and smash into coarse crumbs, transfer to a shallow pan. Whisk eggs, mustard, and 2 tbsp. water in a shallow bowl. Place flour in a third shallow pan. Remove pork from brine, pat dry, and season with kosher salt and pepper. Working one at a time, coat the flattened chops in flour. Then dredge chops in egg mixture, and coat with pretzel crumbs pressing firmly to adhere. Fry pork until golden brown and cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels, season with sea salt, and serve with lemon wedges, sauerkraut, and the remaining Unique Sourdough Rings. Enjoy and have a Happy New Year!
