Hands down the best Fried Catfish I have ever eaten.
This is really best if baking soda is added. I may already be in your pancake mix but it will fizzle if left to stand too long and more will need to be added. The batter needs to be used immediately to be effective. : )
This is a real good tempura type batter. I also add 1/2 tea of turmeric to the dry ingredients to give the fried fish a beautiful golden color.
