What's Cooking? Fried Fish




Ok, I got called out by my catholic brethren last week. Ribs on a Friday during lent. Tim you are not actually eating that. Ok, you are correct. I had fish and chips. My personal least favorite thing in food is fish sticks or frozen battered fish.

5lbs – Cod or Walleye, skinned, and pin bones removed

Dry Mix

  • ½ qt Bread Flour
  • 1tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/2 tbs Baking Powder
  • 2 tsp Salt, kosher
  • ½ tsp White Pepper
  • 1 tsp Smoked Paprika

Liquid Mix
  • 1 C Liquid Egg (6 eggs beaten)
  • ½ qt sour cream
  • ¾ can of beer (Flavor of your choice), I prefer Bud Heavy or an American Lager

Seasoned Flour:
  • 3 C Bread Flour
  • 1 TBS Salt
  • 2 TBS Pepper
  • Prepare a fryer at 350 degrees.

Recommended dipping sauce includes tartar or Malt vinegar.

1) Mix the Dry mix ingredients together. 

2) Mix the Wet Ingredients together and then mix with the dry.

3) Mix the Seasoned flour together and hold separate.

4) Dredge Fish in seasoned flour, shake off excess like Pierre Strong shakes off tackles. Then dip it into your batter. Allow the excess batter to drip off, then place into a fryer oil and deep fat fry at 350 for 4 to 5 minutes.

Go Jacks and like always, block that kick/punt (which they did last week)!

Jackrabbit Football All-Decade Team

Image
Yes, we are well into the new year/decade but our debate has been fierce in creating an All-Decade Jackrabbit football team.  The challenges of creating this team were what to do with the players at the beginning and the end of the decade who may only have a year or two of stats to go on or what do we do with those players who only splashed for one year?  Further complicating matters was the consistent improvement of the Jackrabbit team as a whole and the level of competition they are facing week in and week out.  So with all of those factors, the Splitting Hares Podcast team of Ben Pierson, Brendan Luedtke, Kyle Sheehan, and Dallas Clarksean created our list of who the team should be.  All are welcome to their opinions!  Special thanks to Mitchell McLain who keeps an unbelievable database of Jackrabbit football statistics and information.  Offense Quarterback Taryn Christion (2015-2018) 44 games started, 59.70% completion rate, 11,535 yar...

Rants & Raves: LIU

Image
The Jacks won 38-3 on a cold and damp September evening.  The Jacks dominated statistically in nearly every area but it didn't feel like a fully satisfying victory.  How spoiled have we become as Jackrabbit fans? Rave: How about that defense?  The argument could be made that they have only surrendered 17 points in 2 games.  Pretty impressive.  For most of the night Saturday LIU was completely overwhelmed by the size and speed of the Jackrabbit defense.  LIU managed only 123 yards of total offense.  The performance was phenominal, even against a transitioning FCS opponent. I'll highlight some of the invidual performances later. Rant: Adult fans... enough said.  This writer is tired of the apathy and excuses. Rave: Students!  Great job showing up, being loud, and impacting the game.  That was great! Rave: The true freshmen really showed out.  Quinton Hicks impacted the game from his first snap.  Diamond Evans played w...
