INTRODUCTION TO BEER BATTERED FISH
The first time I ever tried beer battered fish, I would have been around the age of 10. My father took me to a party that his company threw for all of their employees. I can still remember how amazed I was after only a few bites. As an adult, I still enjoy beer battered fish but I’ve also experimented to come up with my own version of this classic.
BEER BATTERED FISH THAT ISN’T TOO FISHY
Not everyone loves seafood and I have to admit that I am not really a huge fan of most fish. However, I have always loved the taste of a really good fried fish fillet from Lon John Silvers. Their batter is unmistakable and unique. One of our goals when preparing this dish was to make a crust that was very similar to that recipe.
I’ve also always admired the taste of a good beer batter so I wanted to incorporate that ingredient. We feel that the final result is one of the best beer battered recipes you will ever taste.
HOW TO MAKE THE BEST BEER BATTERED FISH RECIPE YOU WILL EVER EAT
Whether you like mahi-mahi, catfish, walleye, trout, sea-bass or any of the wide variety of fish, there is one thing that is true. A well-prepared fish is so satisfying to eat but a bad recipe can be uneditable. It is for this reason, I like to use a fish like cod that is mild in taste. It has less of that fishy taste that fish haters loathe.
The remainder of the ingredients are very common and takes very little time to prepare.
