Frying catfish. Anyone do anything special/different?

Other than the same old milk/egg, batter, fry, lemon, etc?
Special ingredients in the batter? Secret family recipes you're willing to share? Some slight variation that makes a difference?

i like to put a little Louisiana hot sauce in there, just a little so it has a slight spice.

Try buttermilk for the wet and cornmeal seasoned to taste for the dry. Fry at 350+ until it floats and drain on a wire rack.

I like to mustard batter them

Seasoned corn meal,,,,,,,,,,only.

I use La. Fish Fry with a little Tony's sprinkled in it. I've never used a wet batter on my fish.

Put the filets in a bowl with plenty of mustard then batter with your favorite dry seasoning.
LA Fish Fry in the blue bag is WAY too salty

Here is the trick.....of course mustard and Tony's as everyone has said....but the real secret is garlic powder....There will be no fishy taste on any kind of fish...you can tell because you put all those together and the fish won't even smell like fish when it is raw...you'll love it..

I want my fish to taste like fish. Not Alfredo at Olive Garden.

Louisiana hot sauce and yellow mustard, coated in Louisiana Fish Fry.
However, the buttermilk wash sounds good.
The real key in frying fish is having very hot oild and not letting the temperature drop.

Agreed. I try to purchase the unseasoned if I can find it.

Y'all ever try the "New Orleans Fish Fry" brand? Is it any good?
Posted on 5/22/12 at 9:06 am to Walt OReilly
I use mustard,Worcestershire,garlic powder and a little black pepper let sit in fridge for about an hour. Then I use La fish fry seasoned. Now that is money.

Start with relatively dry fillet, coat liberally in yellow mustard and Red Dot hot sauce. I like to let mine marinate for a bit in that... Then batter with Zat's Fish-Fri with lemon.
