* Step 3

Set up 3 step breading station. Flour then eggwash then fried onion breadcrumbs.

* Step 4

Dredge each cheese curd in flour with your left hand, cover with egg wash in your right hand, and roll in fried onion mixture with your left hand. (Left hand for dry, right hand for wet)

* Step 5

Lay each curd on parchment, and do not let them touch each other. Freeze overnight. (Like mozzarella sticks, freezing helps maintain shape and proper cooking)

* Step 6

Lay each curd on parchment paper and bake at 400 ° for approximately 6 minutes. If you over bake them the cheese will come out, but you can repair them by using a spoon to push the cheese back in.
