Well I thought I'd give making my own breading mix a try.


breading mix
1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup corn meal
1/4 cup pancake mix
1tsp Old bay
1tsp black cracked pepper
1tsp lawry's salt
1tsp table salt
1 sleeve of ritz crackers crumbled up


egg wash
2eggs
cup of milk.

I usually just do half Shore Lunch half crushed up saltines but I might have to try the Ritz.  Had another guy recommend them over saltines for smoked carp so maybe they go well with fish.

Yes very easy clean up. I saw one and had to get it. While it doesn't cook a lot at once, setting it on the side keeps it hot. Very happy so far.

Ritz are good,cheese nips, work well also. I'm usually to lazy and just use 4 C's Italian bread crumbs or Shore lunch with some Cajun seasoning added. Sometimes to much flavored breading take away from just the clean flavor of the fish. I also like to made a light tempura batter for fish tacos.

I will have to try yours..

we use 1/4 teaspoon of onion power..  and a 1/4 teaspoon  of garlic power..  to 1 cup Italian bread crumbs pregresso .. or garlic herb bread crumbs .. Progresso  ..

it's all in how the fish is prepared I fillet my walleyes and zipper the bones out.. then soak on a vinager and water mix 1 cup water to 1/4 cup white vinager.. for about ten minutes to a hour .. to get the blood and fish tate out.. if you soak to long you will have no fish taste at all..   you could also use butter milk instead.. but I prefer the vinager mixture..

from there I use egg well beaten and a little cream in the eggs make the breading a little better to me for some reason.. I put breading mix in baggie before this point..  dip fillet in egg wash.. then throw in bag shake then throw in frier..fry to light golden brown then serve.. peanut oil is what I usally use or vegetable oil for frying..

I also mix my own tartar sauce for sandwiche's with sweet pickle relish  mayo and a little tabsco. To liven it up .. you can use other hot sauce but that up to you .. happy cooking..

The nice thing about the above recipe is you can bake also if you got problems with deep frying??  So just a heads up..


Might be able to get some thing you like from this and add to your recipe.. from the above..
