Re: Perch recipe
All the good ideas area the best part of this sight. Some work for us some don't, but all the ideas are always appreciated.
I can't wait to try the heavy cream and also the air fryer. Both are new to me, thanks guys.Mike

Re: Perch recipe
Fast Freddy,
Fishing Tigress is my co-captain and one hell of a cook.
We use this on Walleye and Perch.
She mixes the McCormick Fish Fry - Seafood Fry Mix AND the McCormick Cajun - Seafood Fry Mix. Kroger in Port Clinton has them, I assume all Krogers do.
The Cajun blend gives your fish a little kick. By blending you can give it a hint or go hot with straight Cajun. What ever suites you.
We don't use egg because we don't want heavy batter. The above mix will stick just fine to damp fish. If you want heavy batter, use an egg wash first.
BTW, The Tiger prefers Walleye but the Tigress prefers Perch.Mike

Re: Perch recipe
mcormicks beer batter and kellogs corn flake crumbs...dip the fish in the wet beer batter then roll in flake crumbs...one thing i like about this is you can coat all your pieces and let them set for a while till your ready to fry.

Re: Perch recipe
I recently purchased an Air Fryer, last week I used it for Walleye. Wow I am hooked. I used barbecue Pork rinds all crushed up to roll the Fillets in I used egg as the binder. 400 degrees for 11 minutes it was perfect. This week I used Panko bread crumbs with some Andy’s Cajun mixed in for a little kick on Perch. I kept it 400 but cut the time back 9 minutes. Again it was great. With an air fryer just a small amount of oil sprayed on top of filets to help brown them.

Re: Perch recipe
For years I have used Town House butter flavored crackers crushed up with Italion bread crumbs, add some flour and a variety of seasoning like onion powder, garlic powder, Mrs Dash, etc all to taste. Dry fillets in flour dusting, roll in eggwash then roll on coating mixture. I use canola oil at 375 degrees and drop my perch fillets into the oil for 2 min for small pieces up to 2.5 minutes for bigger fillets. Leaves a thinner light great tasting coating that enhances the taste of the fish. Have had many people that dont care for fish like this recipe...also nake my own tarter sauce...2/3 helmans mayo, 1/3 miracle whip, add sweet pickle relish enough to make it noticible in the sauce, then add a small squirt of lemon juice, stirr well, keep refrigerated. Better than any store bought !!

Re: Perch recipe
Airshot, I make the same tarter sauce, I add a little garlic powder and salt, pepper. My mom made it when I was a kid and I have been hooked ever since and that has been over 55 years, Everyone that has tried it loves it.

Re: Perch recipe
All of these sound good. I like using some Slap Your Mama seasoning after coming out of the fryer- perfect combo!! If you have not tried it- you don't know what you are missing
