What a tasty breading so fragrant :) This fish looks really appetizing. Bye, have a graet week
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing! The recipe is very tasty!
ReplyDeleteGreat recipe!!! Looks just like my perfect dish XX
ReplyDeleteI love the look of the beer batter recipe!
ReplyDeleteWe are coming to fresh lake fish in Minnesota (fishing opener has happened) and these coatings will be referred to again and again.
ReplyDeleteyou and I are so much alike, we do love our fish ... like all of these coatings - beer is such a good effervescent for the batter and flavor additive to use for breading... I sometimes use club soda which is neutral in taste and simply add salt and red pepper for fresh, mild fish - gonna try your Italian coating next time
ReplyDeleteYummy, love haddock so much. This looks great.
ReplyDeleteWow, Claudia-such an impressing list of coatings for fish. I love your Beer Batter coating, especially...but all of them are great.
ReplyDeleteYour haddock is totally golden, crunchy, and moist, now doubt!
Bookmarking these...a fabulous keeper:DDD
How wonderful to have a choice of breading! This sounds wonderful. Have a great day. Blessings...Mary
ReplyDeleteBoth of these batters look like they would have a lot of flavor. I have been disappointed at the lack of flavor in this dish presented by restaurants before-especially the beer batter kind.
ReplyDeleteYour picture here does look amazing-yum!
They all sound delicious and one will be tried for our next fish fry.
ReplyDeleteDear Claudia, I love these recipes. Fresh fried fish is the best. Blessings dearest. Catherine xoxo
