Basfis Posted April 7, 2020 Posted April 7, 2020 With all the extra cooking at home, frying some fish is on repeat at our house. Last several batches have been a routine saltwater soak then egg and milk bath for a bit before breading in zatarans. friend of mine trued some sour cream (lightly) then breading and swears it was best ever. Mentioned a variation using light mustard then breading. so, lay out your favorites. I’m looking to try a few new ones.
laker67 Posted April 7, 2020 Posted April 7, 2020 "Old fashion fry meal" from the mennonite stores around the area. If you like the true flavor of fish and not a cover up, this is the one. Basfis and Johnsfolly 2
Quillback Posted April 7, 2020 Posted April 7, 2020 Louisiana Seasoned Crispy Fish Fry is my favorite. Adds some zing to bland fish like crappie and walleye. Easy too, coat the fillet, drop it in the oil. Terrierman, Basfis, Johnsfolly and 1 other 4
Johnsfolly Posted April 7, 2020 Posted April 7, 2020 I mix regular bread crumbs with panko about 50:50 ratio. Then I add dried oregano, basil, garlic powder and ground black pepper. The last ingredient is parmesan cheese. If I am making approximately 2 cups of mixture, I add approximately 2 tablespoons of the dried herbs, one to one and half tablespoon of the garlic, 2 tablespoons of parmesan and the pepper by feel. Breading is a dredge in seasoned flour (salt&pepper), egg wash, and then bread crumbs. Quillback and Basfis 2
Ryan Miloshewski Posted April 7, 2020 Posted April 7, 2020 I like good old fashioned cornmeal, honestly. If I don't have it on hand, I like the Louisiana Spicy Fry like Quillback mentioned. Hard to beat cornmeal, though. Johnsfolly and Basfis 2 “To those devoid of imagination a blank place on the map is a useless waste; to others, the most valuable part.”--Aldo Leopold

Or is it something you order? Luck is where preparation meets opportunity...... Or you could just flip a coin???

Here is what I buy: https://www.amazon.com/Louisiana-Fish-Fry-Seafood-Breading/dp/B07D4CHNRC. It's common. Should be in smaller packages in the grocery store. I know Wally World sells it.

Have to put it on my to do list. Johnsfolly 1
nomolites Posted April 7, 2020 Posted April 7, 2020 I soak the filets in milk then toss in a 50/50 mixture of Andy’s red and mild before dropping in the oil - simple and delicious. Mike Basfis and Johnsfolly 2
