    Fried Battered Fish

    Recipe





    If fried battered fish is on the menu, an old standby trick is to
    use a quality ginger ale as your liquid for the batter mix. Beer works
    well, but ginger ale is cheaper and less troublesome for
    those who avoid alcoholic beverages. Another trick for getting a
    lighter textured batter: Use ice-cold water or ginger ale in the batter, and keep it as cold as possible. This is the trick that one major fast seafood restaurant uses to keep the batter from becoming too heavy. By keeping the batter near freezing, the oil does not penetrate the batter as well, but does continue to cook it. The result is a lighter texture for both fish and coating.
