Fried catfish

Soak in mustard and hot sauce thinned with some water. Shake in Louisiana fish fry. Fry in 375F frying blend. Drain on a wire rack or a bed of thin sliced Vidalia onions.

I mix a wet dredge using egg, sour cream and Dijon mustard and when mixed it is a fairly thick liquid that coats the fish easily.

I then mix white and yellow corn meal, add salt, garlic powder, cayenne and black pepper to my preferred taste.

Go from the wet dredge to the coating and into the 350 degree oil to fry. Don't cook too long as it dries out the fish. I do tend to slice my catfish in strips after I filet them and the pieces are kept in the 2 inch wide by the width of the filet for frying.

We probably cousins.

Usually mustard dredge to batter or straight into the batter.

For batter I like Louisiana Brand in blue bag. Don’t have to add anything. The “New Orleans style” has a touch of lemon and is pretty good too.

I've been meaning to ask this since I saw one of your post that your parents/parent were from the Basile area.
They might be younger than me but if they knew someone named Tanie tell them I say Hi.

There’s going to be a day when you’ll wish you could eat catfish or anything for that matter.
