Breading Recipe for Frying Fish

Video Transcript

Hi! I'm Louis Ortiz on behalf of Expert Village and today I'm going to show you a 3 step breading procedure. This is a pretty traditional combination of items that you use to deep fry proteins, vegetables, all different kinds of things so I want to show you the basic principle behind this and its a basic technique so that you have some pretty fried foods. First and foremost I got a bowl here and this is just all purpose flour I have added no seasons or anything like that I found that it is a lot better especially if you are frying proteins to go ahead and seasoning the protein directly and then put flour on it and I will show you that in just a bit. In the middle here I just got some low fat milk you could use whole milk, I have seen half and half use of cream all different kinds of things but one very important feature or item that needs to go in there is a egg. So we are going to throw in a egg in there and this is just a basic egg wash. I don't like to use water, I like the viscosity of diary products like milk and cream anyway so we are just going to go ahead and beat this egg in here and what I'm trying to achieve here between the milk and the egg is just to hit all one color so I know that the yellow and the white of the egg has been completely beat and mixed in there incorporated the way that it need to be. This actually is the order in which we are going to bread the items here in a bit and I'm using just a thin wire whisk, there are thicker ones out there that have thicker strands but those are usually made for bigger batches of sauces and thicker soups and things in that nature. So you would notice that we got a nice opaque color, there is no bright yellow specs or anything like that so we know we have gotten a good mix on our eggs, we wiped a little bit of air into it and that is fine to. So in the third bowl I've got just a store bought seasoning bread crumb garlic and herb mixture it is much easier just to be able to buy it and pour it in a bowl you could make it your self if you so choose. It is a little bit longer process as you could imagine and then in the forth bowl over here I got just a store bought fish fry actually and its a cornmeal base seasoned fish fry and I'm going to show you the differences between these and the effects that you get on the actual proteins that you dip in here. Just as a precursor we are going to put our protein item which has been seasoned of course with salt, pepper, garlic salt which ever you like that is what I have here. We are going to season that and then drop them into the flour first just a light coating and then from a flour we're going to do the milk and the egg wash and at the point from the milk and the egg wash we could go ahead and go back into the flour if you so choose for the final part or we could go into the bread crumbs or we could go into the cornmeal mix so that it the basic run down, basic setup so you could have all your items in place so you can have a officiant frying procedure going.
