How To Make Gooey Stringy Mozzarella Sticks Recipe

1. First off, you’ll need to cut your Mozzarella into stick shapes. Make sure they’re not too thick or too thin. Just right is what we’re going for.
2. Next up, you’re going to prepare your breading. Put your flour in one bowl, your whisked eggs in the second bowl, and your breadcrumbs mixed with spices in the third bowl.
3. Now comes the fun part, the breading. Coat each mozzarella stick in flour, then egg, then the breadcrumb mixture. Repeat this step twice for each stick.
4. Place the breaded sticks in your resealable bags and freeze them for 2 hours. This freezing process is the magic touch that’ll get you that perfect gooey, stringy center.
5. Preheat your oven to 400��F (200��C) and bake your mozzarella sticks for 10 minutes, until they’re golden and crispy. From freezer to oven, that’s the secret!

Tips For The Best Results

• Always double bread for that extra crispy coating.
• Do not skip freezing, it helps to keep the cheese from melting too soon.

Storage Tips

• Freezing the breaded sticks in a resealable bag makes them super easy to store, plus you can cook them up anytime you want!
