Putting mustard on white perch! I know tons of south LA people that do it, tho. Shame.

Calling it white perch already lets me know I should never take cooking lessons from you.....

I kid I kid . I absolutely love the flavor a mustard/hot sauce rub brings out. If others dont, they can gladly fill up on the hush puppies and fries

CHEF FOLSE: Courtney, I think when it comes to white perch or crappie, there is nothing better than mustard-battered, cornmeal-coated, deep-fried sac-au-lait

heavily seasoned ice water
Tell me more. Most seasonings outside of salt are fat soluble...or so I've thought.

the water is just a medium to help get good easy coverage of the seasoning, the ice is the important part, the transition from the ice cold bath directly to the hot oil makes for a crispier crust, or so I have been told???

Don't crowd the pot

Common mistake I see people making. Dropping too many in the pot dropping the temp too low and causing the fish to sit in the grease too long.

Soak in milk/hot sauce. Shake in Batter pro with yellow Louisiana fish fry, fry at 360-375. Eat. Very easy

I use one like this and it helps. Unfortunately it takes a ton of grease

2 eggs
Tablespoon yellow mustard
I mix that then add in my catfish
Take it out the dredge and run it through some Mr. Petes Fish Fry
Fry for 2 1/2 minutes
drain on a cooling rack
eat with some tartar sauce


If I cant get Mr. Petes I use 1 part corn flour to 1 part corn meal, when it comes out the grease I immediately sprinkle with some creole seasoning

Definitely nice to have at the camp. I've been tempted many times to get a deep fryer, but never actually walk out of the store with it. Probably should here one day.

Those fish look mouthwatering! I'm a seasoned cornmeal person. No batter on my fish. I don't mind some mustard on bream as some do from time to time, but seasoned cornmeal is the way to go for me.

Gosh, I want those fins badly.
