5 stars...yes it's deserving of 5 stars.
If you want that New England feel of fish and chips this is what you want to make. The batter is perfect, not too thick not thin and perfectly crispy.
I did tweek it a bit with the sub of Old Bay instead of salt and I didn't make up the whole giant batch of House Seasoning. I chose to just add a few shakes of pepper and garlic powder.
Fried up the fish, made some homemade tater sauce, fries and have the bottle of malt vinegar handy. The perfect New England Fish and Chips

I wish this recipe didn't have the house seasoning recipe at the bottom to throw people off. I definitely don't need a cup and a half of salt and pepper sitting around in my cupboards. I had a headache and wasn't thinking correctly when I went to cook this recipe and used the entire cup of salt, ruining my fish. A stupid mistake, but I do wish this recipe was more clear and simply called for a pinch each of salt, pepper and garlic powder. I will have to try again next week but I'm simply disappointed for now...

This was excellent. I did modify it though. I added a healthy amount of Old Bay to the batter and the bowl of flour. I love Old Bay. I also recommend coating in flour BEFORE batter, it just makes sense. This will be my go to recipe.

Absolutely perfect fish. I think cutting the cod on the diaganal is important in getting the cod flaky. Truly restaurant quality results! Thank you Paula.

Oh my gosh!!!! This recipe is AMAZING! When I saw it was Paula's, I knew it was the one to try. There were some comments about whether to dredge the fish in flour or batter first. I did both and give a huge thumbs up to dredging in batter and then flour because it gives a rougher, crispier batter not smooth like fish sticks you often get in other places. It reminds me of the "Good Old" Beer battered fish fry of days gone by. I haven't been able to find any place that meets my standards. But now, thanx to Paula, I am forced to be my own deep fryer chef. LOL

This was the very first time I made fish and chips. The fish was a huge hit, and with the leftover batter, I made onion rings (for the first time also. Our youngest child said this is the only way I should make fish.

I was looking for a recipe that would make my beer battered fish taste like my mom used to make (40+ years ago and I am so thankful that I found one. Thank You Paula.
It was an easy recipe to follow and the fish was not dry or gooey, it was deliciously good.

Love this beer batter recipe! I've used it on Talapia with great results. I also used it last night to make onion rings - I added about a Tablespoon of my homemade cajun spice mixture to the batter. They came out delish. I left some of the leftover onion rings in the (turned off oven overnight and they were still crispy this morning! Thanks for a great batter.
