I find their fries to be terrible, but I do like their fish especially with malt vinegar. The chicken planks have also always been a favorite.
Same here. There used to be one 1/2 mi from me and way back they had oysters. Double yummmmmm. They dropped those but I still liked to eat there now and then.
They shut down and there's one left in the area, not worth driving to. I found a recipe for their batter on the web and got my own fish. Catfish fillets, tilapia and some cod. Wanted some scallops and oysters but the store won't have them fresh until closer to the holidays.
When I got the fish I couldn't resist some creamed herring. Long senior moment there. I like shrimp, too in my own horseradish/chili sauce. Heinz chili sauce, no chili in it, my favorite brand of that. Squeeze of lemon juice.
Anyway, I don't use a thermometer and my fat may not have been hot enough but my batter didn't get as golden brown as that picture. It fried up nice and crispy though and tasted fine. I saw another recipe with 1 tsp of sugar, didn't know if I should try that or not. I don't want beer batter though.
This was 3/4 cup flour 2 tbsp corn starch 1/4 tsp baking powder 1/4 tsp baking soda 1/4 tsp salt, 3/4 cup water. I don't deep fry anything very often. Usually I bake fish different ways. Patted the fish dry and the batter is thick enough and sticks very well.
