    I switch back and forth from battered to crumb coating. I use saltine crackers pulverized in a food processor. Season my fish, coat in flour, dip in an egg/milk bath then coat with the saltine crumbles. Comes out crispy, perfect for fish sandwiches, or however you like to eat it. I guess you could substitute a bit of beer for the milk if you're looking for that flavor, but only if you plan to drink the rest while cooking. Waste not want not.

    Brilliant!!!! I used to always use flour to knead and it made them so hard on the outside. With a stand mixer, mine were perfect but you have shown me how to make them at friends. Also, you have the only recipe that adds the right amount of salt.

    I personally always make the flour, vinegar and water recipe, it could be worthwhile adding some cornflour of a ratio of 50% of each flour or variation of 25 to 75 etc. I certainly wouldn't season the batter mix with salt because it saps up the hot oil. A secret ingredient i was once given by a successful chip shop owner was a shot of GIN. Gin being a high alcohol content when added to hot oil creates some combustion, never tried it because i don't drink.

    • @ChefBasicswithBaz
      @ChefBasicswithBaz 11 днів тому

      Great tips here, however i believe that high proof alcohol works due to the boiling point being lower than water. This means that it evaporates quickly, leaving larger bubbles in the batter.

    As a science geek I have to criticize this experiments lack of control. In particular the last method used.Had you added rice flower to all the batter recipes they would have been crispier when fried. So I consider this a failed experiment. The advantage of adding rice flower is it does make your fried batter crispier, in particular after its rested10 minutes. So there is no way to really tell if the last recipe was crispier as you did not add rice flower to all the recipes. Then you double fried the last recipe. A common method for Chips (French Fries in the U.S.). Again you introduced a lack of control. So to control your experiment you did not account fairly for either the addition of the rice powder or the frying method meaning no significant conclusion can be drawn as to which batter recipe is better batter.

    Would the recipe for the yeast batter work just as well if you reduced the quantities down to a quarter or half of those shown do you think? I'm only ever cooking for myself and I both hate to waste and can't afford to waste so I'd rather not waste if I can possibly get away with it. Unless it freezes well, which I can't imagine it does but really have no idea!

    • @ChefBasicswithBaz
      @ChefBasicswithBaz 21 день тому

      I wouldnt think it would freeze well. All these are fine to scale down but you will need enough (or a small enough container) to be able to submerge the fish fully.

    The last recipe involved double frying the fish. Even with French Fries this will naturally make them more crispy. So he could've just had a yeast or beer battered mix and did the same thing tbh.

    Here in Australia at any Fish & Chip Shop (Chippie) that you can get Crumbed Fish as well too which is the pieces of fish are covered in Breadcrumbs instead of Batter of course. & Yes, very indeed so it Very Delicious & very Crunchy of course. Fish cooked in Breadcrumbs instead of Batter is really recommended if you haven't tried it at all of course.
