I'd heard of dipping filets in mustard and then the meal so I tried it. I kept a dozen from Okatibbee today and fried them up. The only bad thing, after my surgery I could only hold 2 filets and 2 puppies.

I had a two pounder. Pretty good for Okatibbee.

Oh yea, the mustard makes the breading crunchy. I'll be doing this again.

Soak in Louisiana hot sauce for 10 min, coat in mustard and batter as normal. GREAT!! Try it next time. Not too spicy, just rite.

The mustard trick works good, that is a huge crappie for Okatibbee! I wonder what fillets covered with buttermilk ranch dressing then meal and fried would be like?

I also add sprinkle Tony's season all on the fish when I roll them in the mustard. Been cooking this way 30 years at least. Actually don't know any other way. Wish I could stop at 10 or 12. Danny

I used the last of my Southern Star Fish Fry Seasoning with this batch. EZ told me that he had ordered a case and he'll share some. I'm hooked on that stuff. You mix it 50-50 with corn meal to get the best breading I've ever tasted. An old couple in TX makes and sells it but you have to order a case, COD, to get it. The dadgum shipping almost doubles the price.

I have enjoyed the mustard recipe for quite a while. It is delicious. For a lite flaky coating we coat them with potato flakes (instant potatoes) after dredging in the mustard. Yum, yum.

Try coating Pork Chops in mustard and a 75/25 mix of flour and corn meal. Sho is good
