    You had me until the fry test. It's always time/temperature ratio. If you increase the temperature you have to reduce the time, and visa versa to get the same doneness. Also a true comparison would have been in the same vessel at various times and temps.

      Thank you for your observation. We might disagree slightly. I do agree about less time, but my results from 35 years of cooking fish at 5 restaurants that I have owned, cooking catfish for some of the largest events in North America, including Canada, 350 Fahrenheit produces the most consistent product. I would love for us to battle out this point in a kitchen. Keep watching, and I am always ready to defend my position, or admit defeat.

    I went and bought some fresh catfish filets and Martha White cornmeal and tried this. Absolute best fish out of all my years cooking it. I can absolutely see how this can be used to cater or a restaurant. It makes the perfect crust, brings the flavor of the fish out and not salty at all. Just perfect.

      Eddie, thank you for trying my simple and proven recipe for frying fish. I don't know why people want to cover up the fish by using so many ingredients. Be sure to try some of my other catfish recipes, One of my favorites is Catfish Allison (Fish Allison on the videos). Let me know what you think.

    JOHN...I LOVE YOUR DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO PROPERLY COOK CATFISH.
    I'M A NATIVE BORN CALIFORNIAN, AS WAS MY MOTHER; BUT MY DAD WAS BORN AND RAISED IN NORFOLK, VA., AND HE COULD COOK ANYTHING.
    HE ALWAYS COOKED HIS CATFISH AS YOU DO WITH THE SAME FIXINGS; BUT ALONG WITH THE FIXINS'...
    HE AKWAYS HAD A POT OF COLLARD GREENS COOKIN' TOO.
    THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING YOUR TALENTS.
    AND IT SHOWS THAT YOU COOK WITH LOVE TOO.

    I will need to get an oil thermometer so I can make sure my oil is 350 degrees. I’ve fried fish for decades but never knew my temperature. To know when the oil was hot enough, I would just sprinkle some corn meal or flour in the skillet. If sizzles, the ready to fry some fish

    Hi John, is there a reason why everything fried is breaded? Chicken, fish, even vegetables? Is it a southern thing or nationwide. I grew up less than 10 minutes by car from the Mediterranean. We scale the fish, remove the guts, add salt and pepper and fry it head, tail, the whole thing and eat it. As always, thank you so much for your videos.

    Recipe is great, I tried two ways. Cast iron pan with flounder and it cooked perfect. However, I tried it in a small deep fryer and the breading fell off. As if the oil, was too aggressive, hot or some other reason. ??

    • @AllThingsFoodwithJohnWoods
      @AllThingsFoodwithJohnWoods  2 года назад

      August, I am glad that it worked well on the Flounder. Very interesting about the deep fryer. I have a few troubleshooting points: I don't think the breading would have released in an aggressive fryer. I do think that can happen if the fryer was not hot enough. Was the fish moist enough to allow the breeding to bind? I will be looking for your response. Thank you for watching my channel.

      Second attempt with my deep fryer, I raised the oil temperature to 375 and it came out perfect. My deep fryer is older model and the oil was a bit used, but at 375 it got the job done. Thanks again, your Cole slaw recipe is next.
