Deep Fry?


Recommended Posts

I tried the Fishing Fever all purpose batter from Jason Boser and it was excellent. It was the seasoned version. I bought it at L&M Supply in Bemidji. First I patted dry the crappie fillets with paper towells, then made a batter with 2 eggs and one small can of evaporated milk. I dipped the fillets in this and then dropped them into the fishing fever dry mix to coat them. Then fried in vegetable oil at 375 for 4 minutes. Very tasty.

hey all....

we bread our fish with bisquick spiced with old bay seasoning. fry it in corn oil and they finish off a nice golden color.

also, on a trip to the NW Angle last winter, we bought some breading from the lodge. it was call fryin' magic (in a bright blue box)-it was soooo good. the best i've ever had. but i can't find it in any grocery stores. i have found fry magic (may be the other way around) and it was not anything like the one we got in the angle. has anybody seen the stuff i'm talking about?

For me it's

3/4 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup Corn flour
1/3 cup corn meal
3 Tbsp Old Bay
1 Tbsp Cajun Seasoning
1 beer/Carbonated Water

Mix dry ingredients. Add beer until it's a the consistancy you want(Thinner equals a lighter coating). Fry in hot oil and salt lightly after removing from oil. Also great on fried veggies.

I used to go up to a friends cabin and we ate a lot of fish up there. But he never seemed to have any flour always had eggs. we would just go through his cupboards and try what ever.we would dip the fish in the egg and then in what ever we could find to crush up.Most of the time is was some kind of cereal.
churshed cherio's were pretty good.
frosted flakes were kinda to sweet.
corn flakes worked.
rice krispies weren't to bad.
well you see where this is going.
I can't remember all the different stuff we tried. But we always ate the fish.

I've used lots of batters, from frying in flour to home-made receipes.
You all really must try "Golden Dipt" in the "fish and chips" variety. They have a bunch of different varieties, but use the fish & chips stuff with a little barley pop (beer). It's easy and absolutely delicious.
Get it good and brown and lightly sprinkle with salt after you get it out of the oil.
Oil temp. is critical. You must keep it at or slightly above 350.
As my good buddy Alton Brown says: Good Eats!

    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
    • The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there.  About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
    • It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway.  Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work.  You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water.  When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
    • We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity. 
    • I've been out on the flats. It's like being on a different planet
