Wet batter for preparing fried fish?

I just use flour, seasoning, and beer.

pour beer into it until it looks like pancake batter.

I use mustard and Louisiana fish fry

I like seasoned fish fry and self-rising flour mixed at a 2:1 ratio with enough beer for a thin pancake batter consistency.

Yellow mustard and Zatarrains for me. so good!

I coat the fish with yellow mustard then dredge so technically it's not a wet batter

I've never seen you do this. Interesting.

I used to do a wet wash of mustard and hot sauce, then fish fry, but as of late, I just make sure my fillets are wet and go straight into seasoned Crispy Southern Fish Fry. I don't dust them until right before they go in the grease. My fish come out light and crispy and I get raves from everyone that eats them. Unless it's fish with a strong flavor, it just doesn't need anything else. I really only fry specks and sac au perch, so it's never an issue

Never knew there were so many communists on TD.

Fish should be fried in seasoned corn meal.

I'll typically beer batter when I'm frying small batches for fish tacos etc not for a regular fish fry.

yea good for catfish.

If you want to taste the flavor of the fish i make a beer batter with flour, corn starch, and baking powder and beer. batter needs to be real cold when you dip and throw in the fryer.
