Thread: A question for all y'all master Chefs

Agreed with everybody... (that scares me) Start with grease at 375. Cold fillets will drop temp to 350. Try to maintain 350 while cooking. A little hotter for the hush puppies!!! I like mine to CRUNCH! Also.... thaw fish slowly in cold water and allow to come to room temp before dropping them. That way they wont get to brown on the outside before they are done on the inside.

Try baking them and use the non stick foil I use different types of coatings and most are good try 425 deg for 20-30 min on crappie fillets.

I agree that you are using oil that's not hot enough. 375 to start then maintain 350.

i think i may know what you need to do. get the grease hotter!!

im just guessing but i think your oil is not hot enough

I keep my fillets as cold as possible. Coating stays on much better for me.

Aways cook at 350 . but never below 325 . to me 375 is to hot . jmo .
