CRISPY CORN AND BEER-BATTERED FISH TACOS
Steps:
- Lightly sprinkle the cod with salt and pepper. Transfer to a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet. Chill, uncovered, at least 1 hour and up to overnight (this air-dries the surface so the batter will adhere better to the fish).
- Whisk the flour, cornmeal, seasoned salt, paprika, baking powder and baking soda in a medium bowl. Add the beer, club soda and vinegar and whisk just until combined and no lumps remain.
- Fit a large heavy pot with a deep-frying thermometer; pour in oil to a depth of 3 inches. Heat over medium-high heat until the thermometer registers 375 degrees F.
- Working in batches, dip the fish into the batter, allowing excess batter to drip back into the bowl. Lower the fish carefully into the oil and fry until light golden brown and just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
- Serve the fried fish with the warm tortillas, pico de gallo, hot sauce, pickled vegetables, lime wedges, avocado, cilantro and cabbage.
- Toss the tomatillo, kiwi, lime juice, basil, serrano, garlic and onion in a small bowl to combine; season with salt. Cover and chill 1 hour to allow the flavors to come together.
- Puree the carrots, lime juice, salt, garlic, habanero and 1 cup water in a blender on high speed until completely smooth and no large chunks remain. Transfer to a 1-quart jar or nonreactive container, cover loosely with plastic wrap and poke a few holes in the plastic to allow the hot sauce to breathe. Let sit at room temperature for at least 24 hours before serving and up to 3 days. The hot sauce can be made 1 week ahead; chill after 3 days.
- Pack the chiles, carrots and onion into a 1-quart heatproof jar or a nonreactive container. Put the peppercorns and allspice berries in a dry large saucepan over medium heat and toast, tossing constantly, until just fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the vinegar, sugar and salt and bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar and salt. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon zest and juice, oregano, garlic and bay leaf. Let cool slightly, then pour the brine over the chiles, carrots and onion to submerge. Seal and chill at least 3 hours before serving. The flavor will mellow as it sits. The vegetables can be pickled 3 weeks ahead. Keep chilled.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
- To make the batter:
- Puree the chipotles and egg together in a blender. When well blended transfer to a bowl and whisk in the beer. In a separate mixing bowl combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture, whisking well to prevent clumps. Add freshly ground pepper. Set the batter aside while preparing the other ingredients.
- For the fish tacos:
- In a small mixing bowl mix together the sour cream, 2 tablespoons of the chopped cilantro, 2 tablespoons lime juice and 1 teaspoon gray salt, mix well and remove to a serving bowl.
- In a large pot or skillet add corn oil about 1 to 2-inches deep. Over medium heat, heat the corn oil to 350 degrees F.
- On a large serving plate arrange the tomatoes, lime wedges, chopped cilantro, and sliced radishes to garnish tacos.
- Wrap the tortillas in aluminum foil and heat in the oven while frying the fish.
- With your fingers dip the fish strips into the batter and carefully place in the hot oil. Fry until golden brown all over, about 2 minutes on each side. With a slotted spoon remove the fish to a paper towel. To assemble the tacos place 1 piece of the fried fish on a warm tortilla and garnish with tomatoes, chopped cilantro, radishes, and sour cream. Serve with lime wedges and Todd's Slaw.
- Core the cabbage and shave thinly. Peel the red onion, cut in half, and slice thin and mix well with the cabbage.
- Boil the cider vinegar and sugar together whisking to dissolve sugar. When hot combine with olive oil, caraway seeds, salt and pepper. Place cabbage and onions in a non-reactive baking dish and pour hot dressing over the top. Place another pan of equal size on top and place a weight on top to press the slaw. Refrigerate for 24 hours. Before serving add chopped scallions.

Steps:
- For the Beer Batter:
- Mix the flour, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Gradually add in the beer while whisking. Set aside and let the batter rest for 15 minutes before using.
- For Cream Sauce:
- Add the mayonnaise and crema to a medium bowl. Whisk in the lemon zest, lemon juice and water. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper (can be made 3 days ahead, covered and refrigerated).
- For the Fish:
- In a large skillet, over medium heat, add enough oil to reach a depth of 1-inch. Heat the oil until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F or when the end of a wooden spoon sizzles when inserted into the oil.
- On a large plate, combine the flour and salt. Season the fish pieces all over with salt and pepper and coat with the flour. Working in batches, dip the fillets in the beer batter and coat on both sides. Fry in the hot oil until golden brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
- Make tacos with the tortillas and fish and top each with cream, shredded cabbage, tomatillo salsa and pickled jalapenos, if desired.
- *Cook's Note: Crack open a cold Mexican cerveza like a Negra Modelo or a 2 Equis (XX) Amber to make this tasty beer batter, which will change the way you think about fried fish! You can use it for vegetables, too.
- **Cook's Note: Mexican Crema is Mexico's version of creme fraiche and is found at many supermarkets and can easily be substituted with sour cream.
BEER BATTERED FISH TACOS
Steps:
- In a large bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, seasoning salt, and celery salt. Gently stir in the beer and let sit for 15 minutes to thicken.
- Meanwhile, prepare the coleslaw: In a medium bowl stir together all cabbage slaw ingredients and set aside.
- Prepare the avocado sauce: Add all sauce ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth. If the sauce is too thick add more water to reach desired consistency. Set aside.
- Cut skin from the fish and discard. Slice fish into roughly 1 x 1 ½ inch strips.
- Heat oil in a large frying pan to medium-high heat, or 350 to 375 degrees F when tested with a thermometer. About an inch of oil in the pan is ideal for frying.
- Add some of the fish pieces to the beer batter and stir to coat well.
- Add the battered fish peices to the pan. It should sizzle vigorously the moment it's added. Fry for 2-3 minutes, until golden brown. Note: Don't overcrowd the fish and fry in at least a couple of batches if needed.
- Rotate the peices and fry about 2-3 minutes more until the other side is browned and the fish reaches an internal temp of at least 145 degrees F.
- Remove fried fish and place on a wire rack over paper towels to drain.
- Serve over warm tortillas with prepared cabbage slaw, avocado sauce, and other desired toppings.

BAJA-STYLE FISH TACOS
These fish tacos are a traditional Mexican dish that's sure to be a crowd-pleaser. A quick lime juice marinade for the cod provides a hint of citrus in each bite, and the beer batter is wonderfully crisp and light. Simple, rustic, delicious: it's everything you want from Mexican street food.

Steps:
- Marinate: Slice fish into 1-inch-thick pieces (about 2 ounces each). Place in a wide, shallow bowl and season with salt on all sides. Pour lime juice over the pieces and let rest while preparing the batter, 5-10 minutes.
- Make batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour and beer until smooth. Whisk in baking powder, then add sambal, mustard, oregano, and salt, and whisk to combine. Set aside.
- Dredge, batter, and deep-fry: Place flour on a plate. Add oil to a pot and set over medium heat. Secure a thermometer to the pot's side and heat oil to 375 F. Remove fish from marinade, one piece at a time, and dredge in flour on both sides. Then dip in the batter, coat well, and carefully place into the hot oil. Repeat with one or two more pieces, working in batches to avoid crowding the pot. Fry until the fish is evenly cooked and golden brown on all sides, about 8 minutes. Transfer fish to a paper towel-lined plate.
- Assembly: Warm tortillas on a comal or skillet over low heat. While tortillas are heating, mix together mayonnaise and crème fraîche in a small bowl. Place a warm tortilla on a plate, and spread a dollop of mayo-crème sauce down the middle. Place a piece of fish on top of the sauce, followed by another spoonful of sauce. Add cabbage, an avocado slice or two, then finish with a spoonful of pickled red onions. Repeat assembly with remaining ingredients and serve immediately.

BEER BATTERED FRIED FISH TACOS
Steps:
- For the beer batter: In large bowl add half the beer. Add yeast, then stir to dissolve. With a whisk, slowly add the flour. Add more beer as needed to make a thin batter. Add salt. Place bowl in a warm spot. It will get foamy and rise in volume. Let rest and rise for about 2 hours.
- Remove and discard top skin if one forms. Batter is now ready to use.
- For the black beans: In large pot, add black beans, onion, tomato and water to cover. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer.
- Remove tomato from pot. Once cool enough to handle, remove skin and discard. Rough chop tomato and add back to beans.
- Allow beans to simmer until tender, about 2 hours. Remove onion and discard. Season with cumin, coriander and salt to taste. Keep beans hot until ready to serve.
- For the miso aioli: In a food processor add miso pastes, hot sauce, soy sauce, scallions, lime juice and egg. Blend until smooth. With machine running, slowly drizzle oil in until all is incorporated.
- For the charred jalapeno and cucumber salsa: Place jalapeno on a hot grill and cook, turning occasionally, until skin is charred and black. Remove from heat. Set aside until cool enough to handle, then peel and remove seeds. Dice finely.
- Combine jalapeno, cilantro, cucumber and shallots in a bowl. Add vinaigrette, then mix. Taste and add salt or lime juice if needed. Set aside.
- For the tacos: Fill up a fryer or very large pot with rice bran oil and heat to 350 degrees F.
- Warm tortillas over the burners on the stovetop. Set aside.
- Place fish in the flour and toss to coat. Remove excess flour.
- Add floured fish to beer batter using tongs. Remove from batter, allowing excess to drip off.
- Using tongs, carefully place battered fish into hot oil. Wait a couple seconds before releasing fish into oil to prevent it from sinking and sticking to bottom.
- Fry until golden brown and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes.
- Remove from oil and set on a paper towel-lined plate or tray. Season with salt.
- On warm tortillas, spoon 2 tablespoons hot black beans. Place cooked fish on beans. Place 1 slice avocado on top. Spoon 1 tablespoon aioli on fish and avocado. Add 1 tablespoon salsa.
- Garnish with cilantro leaves and a sprinkle of furikake.

FISH TACOS - BAJA STYLE
Beer battered fish with a "secret" garlic cilantro sauce, guacamole, and salsa. The fish are double fried allowing you to do most of the preparation ahead of time and making the fish crispy. My mom has declared this her favorite meal. Grandmother said this was the best fish she has had in 89 years and 10 months. This really makes more servings than listed, but people usually continue eating these even when they are full!

Steps:
- Make the batter: Whisk the flour, baking powder, garlic, cayenne, mustard,oregano, 1 teaspoons salt, and pepper until well blended. Stir in the beer until there are no lumps. (Batter may be made several hours ahead and refrigerated).
- Trim the fish of all blood lines, skin, and bones. Cut into pieces the size and shape of your index finger. Sprinkle with a few drops of lime juice and a little salt. (If not using immediately, wrap and refrigerate). Pour the oil into a deep, wide pan to a depth of 2 inches and heat over medium-high heat to 350 degrees. I use a thermometer, or you can drop a bit of batter into the oil and it should rise up quickly surrounded by little bubbles.
- Pat the fish dry with paper towels. Check the thickness of the batter by dipping in one piece of the fish. The batter should be the consistency of medium-thick pancake batter, coating the fish easily but dripping very little. Add a little beer if the batter seems too thick.
- Add the fish to the batter. Using tongs or chopsticks, swish each piece to make sure it is thoroughly coated, then lift out of the batter, let it drip once, and lay the fish gently into the hot oil. Cook a few pieces at a time until they float and the batter is set but still very light in color. If a piece sticks to the bottom, leave it alone and it will release itself.
- Remove the fish to a rack to drain; reserve the frying oil. (The fish can be prepared ahead to this point, cooled on a rack, and refrigerated uncovered. Cool the oil and reserve).
- When you are ready to serve, reheat the oil to 350-360°F and refry the fish a few pieces at a time until crisp and golden brown.
- To serve, hold a tortilla in your hand and add a spoonful of guacamole. Top with fish and squeeze lime over the whole thing. Then add the secret sauce, salsa, shredded cabbage, cilantro and onion as desired.
