My recipe requires a leap of faith on the
part of the fisherman as it has to be started
the day BEFORE you catch the fish!
Beer Battered Fish
1 1/3 cups of flour
1 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 tbls melted butter
2 beaten egg yolks
3/4 cup flat beer
Mix and refrigerate overnight.
Fillet crappie, bluegill, perch, walleye, etc.
roll in flour, dip in batter.
Fry in Crisco until golden brown and crisp
on the outside. Yum!
Do not use lite beer. Lite beer has no taste.
Lite beer is not real beer but Hop Pop. Lite-Beer
is an oxymoron. Do not consume lite beer!
