Directions

  1. Combine mustard, horseradish, and dill pickles.
  2. Line a baking sheet with paper towels.
  3. Fill a bowl with ice water and put another bowl inside (this keeps gluten from forming and keeping the batter light and crispy).
  4. In the chilled bowl, whisk beer, flour, ½ cup rice flour, baking powder, cayenne pepper, salt and pepper for the batter. Put the remaining ½ cup rice flour into a separate bowl.
  5. Hot the oil in a pan to 360°F. Put the onion rings in rice flour until fully coated and then dip them into the batter. Fry until golden bowl, place on the baking sheet, and sprinkle with salt.
  6. Slice 4 pieces of rye bread and spread the horseradish-mustard sauce.
  7. Layer with sauerkraut, hot pastrami, and onion rings. Top with another dollop of the horseradish-mustard sauce and the other slice of bread.
  8. Enjoy!
