I haven't changed. Don't think you're going to change my attitude about
your stupid comment with a simple recipe!

OK. I can't give you an amount because it depends on how much other stuff
you intend to put in it, which is determined (to an extent) by the size of

Verrrry simple recipe....


Shhhhhhh!!!!!

Joy of Cooking has a two-page description of what they call the "Master
Recipe" for cookies - a basic template from which about 20 different
kinds
can be made. It's not much different for soup.


That's good to know. Now, here's what I need. I need a good recipe for
making a batter I can dip fish into for deep frying. Any ideas?

Tell me you really don't own a copy of "Joy of Cooking".


Is that something with 'directions' in it? I don't do directions.

Then, there would be no point in MY giving you directions, now would there?

After thinking of your post, I decided that looking in 'Joy of Cooking'
might not be too bad.

So I went to my wife's cabinet in which reside her cookbooks. I mistakenly
opened the doors, only to see about 600 cookbooks, binders, papers, and
other assorted printed matter. I decided, 'hell with it'. I'll just keep
mixing flour, beer, eggs, and baking powder. It's not as good as some
batters I've tasted, but it'll do.

Joy of Cooking is a good basic cookbook, but it is very dry and boring.

Why? No color pictures? Many of the recipes are identical to those found in
cookbooks that resemble a Denny's menu: A picture for everything, so drunk
customers just need to grunt and point to what they want.

John, why don't you do a google search for one of the thousands of
batter recipes?

Just hung up! Thanks for the thoughts and the recipe clue. I'll try it this
weekend, especially if catfish is on sale!

Thanks again, Tim!

OK. I can't give you an amount because it depends on how much other stuff
you intend to put in it, which is determined (to an extent) by the size of
the pot you're using, and how many containers you have available for
freezing the leftovers. I use a 4 gallon pot.


I can do four gallons. That's about how much bbq sauce I make at one time.

My neighbors and friends love when I make bbq sauce!! Just because of
the amount that I give away!
