That sounds darn good
How do you make yellow perch from Maine taste good? Or better yet, get us to try one?
A better question is how do you get a trout to taste good??? lol IMO I'll eat perch all day feed them trout to the neighborhood cats!!!
Your perch taste fishy? Might consider changing lakes I agree wholeheartedly with a nicely seasoned beer batter in the deep fry!
Use whole perch fillets or cut jumbo's into pinkie finger sized pieces. Combine one gallon water w/ 1 cup salt, 1 cup sugar, and juice of 1 lemon. Bring water to a rolling boil, throw in a good handful of the perch pieces, when water returns to a boil, boil for 3 minutes. Take out of water and drain, squeeze lemon juice on fillets and dip in melted garlic butter. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM MM GOOD, and easy. I cut the recipe in half and use my deep fryer to boil the water and used the basket to remove from water and drain. This recipe works w/ any fish and is really good w/ pike.
defiantly got to go with the beer- battered in the fryer... i want to try smoking some if any body has any recipe's i be greatly interested thanks
