SOUTHERN FRIED CATFISH
Steps:
- In a small bowl, mix buttermilk, water, salt, and pepper. Pour mixture into a flat pan large enough to hold the fillets. Spread fish in one layer over bottom of pan, turning to coat each side, and set aside to marinate.
- In a 2 gallon resealable plastic bag, combine the cornmeal, flour, and seafood seasoning. Add fish to mixture, a few fillets at a time, and tumble gently to coat evenly.
- Heat oil in deep fryer to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C).
- Deep fry fillets until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Avoid overcrowding so fillets have room to brown properly. Fish should be slightly crisp outside, and moist and flaky inside. Drain on paper towels.

CLASSIC SOUTHERN-FRIED CATFISH
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Preheat the oven to 200 F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and place a rack in the pan.
- Arrange the catfish in a wide, shallow bowl or pie plate. Pour the buttermilk over the fish.
- Combine the cornmeal, flour, salt, paprika, cayenne, and garlic powder on a pie plate.
- Take the fish out of the buttermilk and dredge the fish fillets in the flour mixture to coat thoroughly. Shake off excess flour mixture.
- Heat up 1 inch of oil in a deep, heavy skillet or heavy Dutch oven over high heat.
- The oil must be 350 F. Use a candy thermometer or drop a pinch of the flour mixture into the oil-if it bubbles and floats, the oil is ready. Just be mindful of maintaining the oil temperature while cooking the fish. Don't overcrowd the pan, as doing so will lower the oil temperature.
- Carefully place 2 to 3 fillets in the pan.
- Cook for about 5 to 6 minutes, or until golden brown. If the oil isn't deep enough to cover the fish, turn the fillets carefully after about 3 minutes.
- Remove the fish to the rack in the baking pan and place in the oven while you cook another batch. Repeat until all of the fish fillets are cooked. Serve hot with your favorite sides.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, mayonnaise, scallions and relish to make a tartar sauce. Refrigerate until needed.
- Heat oil in deep-fryer to 350 degrees F.
- Combine cornmeal, Blackfish Spice and salt and pepper, to taste. Dredge catfish fillets in seasoned cornmeal. Deep-fry coated pieces in batches until they are cooked through, about 10 minutes. (For basic reference, use the manufacturer's instructions for your deep fryer for similar foods, then test the fish see that it is fork tender.) Allow to drain on paper towels and serve with tartar sauce and fresh lemon wedges (to squeeze lemon juice over the fish).

Steps:
- Heat the peanut oil in a 5-quart Dutch oven over high heat until it reaches 350 degrees F on a deep-fry thermometer. Adjust the heat to maintain the temperature.
- Whisk the cornmeal and flour together in a shallow dish. Combine the seafood seasoning, kosher salt, paprika, and pepper in a small bowl. Season the catfish fillets evenly on both sides with the spice mixture. Pour the buttermilk into another shallow dish. Dip each fillet into the buttermilk, flip once to coat both sides, hold over the pan and allow the excess to drip off. Coat both sides of the fillets in the cornmeal mixture. Set the coated fillets on a cooling rack and let rest for 5 minutes.
- Gently add the fillets, 2 at a time, to the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 5 to 6 minutes. Remove the fried fillets to a cooling rack set over a newspaper-lined half sheet pan. Repeat method with remaining fillets. Arrange the catfish on a serving platter and serve immediately.

Steps:

- Rinse the catfish fillets, and pat dry. In a shallow bowl, combine the cornmeal, creole seasoning, paprika, sugar, and black pepper. Combine the eggs and hot sauce or water in a another bowl. Dip the fillets in the egg mixture, dredge in the cornmeal mixture, and arrange in the baking pan.
- Bake for 15 minutes, or until cooked through and golden brown. Turn once during cooking. Place catfish on a paper-towel lined plate, and serve immediately with additional hot sauce.

- Marinate your fish in enough buttermilk with a hearty splash of hot sauce overnight. Pour the buttermilk in a plastic bag or a container, add your desired amount of hot sauce, mix and add your fish. If you don't marinate overnight, at least marinate for about 2 hours.
- Heat a skillet to medium high with enough vegetable oil or peanut oil to fill your skillet up about 1/3 up the sides of your pan.
- Add your Zatarains fish fry mix to a container for dredging your fish. Coat each side of your fish well and shake off the excess.
- Gently add your fish to your hot oil and brown your fish on both sides. I brown on one side first, flip the fish, brown on the other side, then flip back over again and cook a little more to ensure doneness. You don’t want your heat on smoking hot because your fish will not cook in the middle, like maybe 350.
