Chef Randé Cooking Tips
- The secret to perfect fried seafood is the temperature of the oil. 350° is ideal. Low oil temperatures make greasy seafood. Be sure to bring the temperature back to 350° before each batch.
- Always shake off excess Fish Fix Mix before you drop fish in the oil.
- This will prevent the excess from burning on the bottom of the pan.
- Seafood is generally cooked when it floats. Cook for a minute longer for extra crunchiness.
- Only use enough oil to cover half of what you’re frying.
- When you remove the fish, place it on a metal drying rack. Don’t use paper towels. The steam from the fish will make it soggy.
- Work in small batches to maintain the oil temperature.
- Don’t overcrowd the fryer.
- If you add salt, do it after the fish is done frying. Don’t add it to the Cajun Fish Fry Mix.
- Only flip once! This will keep your Cajun Fish Fry Mix crispy.
