What is fish batter made from?

The classic recipe for batter is simply made up of flour, salt, water and salt, and pepper. For this recipe, I've used beer instead of water. This gives the fish extra flavor, and the fizz in the beer makes the batter light, crispy and golden.

How do you keep fish batter when frying?

Your batter will stick to the corn starch, which will stick to the fish. If you did AB's recipe, you need to lightly dredge the fish in cornstarch as @yock mentioned. You should also make sure that the batter is cold -refrigerate for 15 minutes to an hour at most.

Can you fry fish after frying chicken?

Once you are done with the chicken you can deep fry your fish in it. However, be careful not to deep fry chicken in it again the next day. Save it for your fishy meals or throw it away. Use separately used oils for fish and poultry.

What is the best oil to fry fish with?

Choose the Right Oil When deep-frying, choose an oil with a high smoke point (peanut, grapeseed, safflower, soybean, sunflower, canola, and extra light olive oil are all good choices) and a flavor that is either neutral or appropriate to the type of food you're cooking.

Is it OK to cook fries in fish grease?

2 Answers. Generally, it's fine to reuse deep-fry oil. In a lot of restaurants, fryer oil only gets changed when it starts to smoke or make food taste "off". ... Assuming it's only used for safe food, oil will taste bad long before it will become unsafe (if it ever really does).

Can you fry fries in the same oil as fish?

Basically you should consider what you're frying, and what you want to reuse the oil for. If you're frying french fries, then using the same oil for chicken won't be a problem. But if you fry fish, you might not want to use the same oil for french fries, because your fries will then taste like fish.

Can I fry fish and chicken in the same oil?

Yes. If you cook the fish first then the chicken will pick up flavor from the fish and that flavor is largely contained (transmitted) by oil which cooked out of the fish. ... Solution: cook the chicken first. If we are talking a lot of oil and the chicken left 'stuff' behind, you may find it advisable to filter the oil.
