Just teasing at Jennifers review, lol. It happens, don't feel bad about peoples stupid comments, I'm sure they've accidentally washed their white clothes with a red shirt on accident before. But do try the recipe again, you'll love it!

My hubby and I use this recipe all the time when making fish and chips. Instead of Cod, I sometimes use Talapia or Halibut and it's just as good.

Seriously, just scanned through and made sure not to add too much salt and i swear it tased so great.I just made beer batter to consistency of thin pancake batter. Next time i am going to make more and pay attention to measurements to see if it can possibly get any better. Those of you who added too much salt,its ok people make mistakes and get confused. Just try harder next time.But i would recommend this recipe for anyone who likes fish. Heck even if you own a resaraunt you would pack em in with this fish.Paula Deen if you were'nt so fat I'd kiss ya.

This was my first attempt at deep frying fish, so I wanted to use a recipe that was simple, but would be great tasting. This recipe fit the criteria exactly! I understood from other reviews that if you read through the recipe quickly, you could easily overlook small ingredient details, and quickly mess up this recipe. Take the time and read carefully, and understand what you are doing.

After quickly mixing the homemade "seasoned salt", I proceeded to make the beer batter which was also a snap. I reccommend using a auto-mixer if you need alot of batter made.

Once the seasoned salt and better are made, the hard work is over! Dredge fish and proceed to fry. My ears were buzzing with compliments from all my friends as soon as they took their first bite! They were impressed with the flavor and even commented they I outdid the local fish & chips spot. I would highly reccomend this recipe to anyone looking for a simple, but tasty, authetic beer batter recipe.

Some cooking points:

Fry your steak fries first before frying fish. Otherwise your fries will taste like fish. Also, let oil return to 375-degrees, before starting next batch. This will ensure timely frying. Mix batter to a less than thick consistancy, but not to runny. When dipping fish in batter, let excess batter drip back into bowl (or wipe of excess on edges of bowl. Thill will insure a crispy fried fish, and not a flaky fried glob of batter. Finally, using your oven to keep fries warm during fish frying is a great idea.

Good luck!!

I wonder if this recipe was rewritten after Jennifer the dope used 1 cup of salt .The recipe could not be more clear. make the seasoning mix and use one half of one teaspoon of the salt mixture. Anyone who can't prepare this deliciously should stick to the Gortons fisherman's frozen case in the market. come on people learn to read.

Made this was a sturgeon my husband caught and it was great! To Jennifer & Peter: EVERYBODY makes mistakes in cooking...kudos to you for cooking and don't let it get you down. Ron & Kay: You're just rude. There are many ways to kindly correct someone, and you clearly didn't even try or care. I highly doubt you'd say any of that stuff to someone's face, so that doesn't give you an excuse or a right to do it on the internet.

Made this for a group of boys. They ate it all and asked for more. Then they pushed and shoved to get to the next batch. That pretty much says it all. As for Jennifer and Peter misreading the recipe. Thats ok - we all make mistakes. I'm just glad there were so many NICE people to help you understand the recipe. Apparently they are perfect. Hope you make the fish and chips again using the right amount of ingredients and enjoy it. It's worth it.

Does anyone know if the fish can be battered in advance...I'm having a fish fry for 50 people and need to do as much prep as possible a couple of hours before eating. Thanks!
