Fish Fry Batter Recommendations

[jds247]

depends on the fish . Catfish I like cornmeal. Other fish I coat in mustard and use Louisiana yellow bag but add a little flour..

One sleeve of original or low sodium saltine crackers in the blender. It’s simple, not overpowering, and provides a thin layer of crust.

I use the Louisiana Classic Fry. It’s just cornmeal and flour. I coat my fish with mustard and Louisiana hot sauce, then batter and fry. I occasionally use mustard and Sriracha, and that’s really, really good.

I do the same except just use straight cornmeal. I mix some hot sauce in yellow mustard, give it a light coat and roll in plain cornmeal.

I had some a buddy cooked that was pretty dang good and he used plain masa.

I have not researched, but was reading that Zararans, Louisiana Fish Fry & Mckormick seasoning sold out to China..... not sure but never the less I just use 3 parts corn meal to 1 part flour & season to taste ( salt, pepper, garlic )

I soak it in buttermilk combined with egg, trappy’s jalepeno sauce, and some egg. I then coat it in a 3:1 cornmeal and sifted flour mix. Fry at 350ish

Doug Nelsons Fish Fry is outstanding

Andy's, better than any other store bought fish fry!

[BlackHogDown]

I'm probably in the minority but I'm not a cornmeal fan. I prefer finely crushed Ritz crackers. Especially for Trout/redfish.

Dredge in lightly seasoned AP flour, into the egg wash, and dredge in "Ritz flour".

Uncle Bucks from Bass Pro is my go-to. Good stuff

Me to except for i use the Uncle Bucks Hot N Spicy batter. Its not hot or spicy to me it just has the right amount of spice added to make it flavorful. Great on alligator and fried squash as well.
