@@rabbit_scribe ha ha yup, I think we are on the same page…the weirdness and recently overly large ego has me turned off.. so I did what anyone would.. unsub’d.
@@LaurynMc i must admit all the silliness isnt for me. i watch because of the recipes but Brian Lagerstrom's videos are so much better in my opinion. i like adam ragusea too
Many moons ago, I worked at Mickey D’s after school. The fish sandwich was the only sandwich I would eat during my lunch break😃. It’s something about the crispy flaky texture.
Just made these sandwiches tonight and my husband said they tasted exactly like the ones from a restaurant. He loved them! Thanks Brian for another great recipe!
I can’t stop watching your videos. I discovered your channel about a week ago and I have almost watched every video you have. From someone who is not very good in the kitchen you actually make me feel like I can do these. I’m so excited to start trying your recipes. THANK YOU!!!
I’m pretty sure at this point I’m exclusively watching Bri cook stuff. The gear, ingredients and pace of video is just so damn practical. Thanks for making great food that any home cook can actually make 😊
Adam Ragusea and Ethan Chlebowski are both pretty good for practical cookery, too. Brian is responsible for about 80% of new recipes in my kitchen, too, but the other two guys definitely hit some winners.
I love everything about Brian and his recipes and techniques but what I APPRECIATE beyond (almost) the rest is the fact that he's quick and concise. No meandering stories about this or that, just the facts ma'am. His videos are bite-sized and super tasty, with concentrated goodness. :D
My favorite part is when u say, let's eat this thing and start dancing and eating on slow motion because it expresses how much joy there is in preparing and eating the food you made with your own hands ❤👊
One of my favorite things to eat… now to make! Write a cookbook… I’ll buy the first one for myself and 10 more for my family and friends! Thanks for making cooking fun, delicious and easy again!
My wife went on about filet o fish from McDonald's. I eventually tasted it and immediately regretted having taste buds. I came across Brians video and gave his recipe a try. 10/10 BEST FISH SANDWICH RECIPE!!!! 👌🏾
Love me a good fish sandwich. I must say, the homemade tartar sauce is an absolute must. If anyone tells me they don't like tartar sauce, homemade stuff always changes their mind.... And you're right. Can't skip the fresh dill!! I've never seen your videos. You earned a sub with this sammich. Great production and I enjoyed watching.
@@mrmiralg It's funny how different people make such different types of tartar sauce, depending upon what they grew up with and were exposed to over the years. I grew up eating a lot of fish and my parents variety of tartar always had a touch of mustard in it and to this day, I always feel the need to add a touch myself when I see a tartar that looks like it's more mayonnaise than anything else. And I never put tartar on salmon, only a white meat type of fish like cod, halibut, etc. Bon apetit!
As much as I appreciate you and your channel in general (and the dancing...always the dancing), the descriptiveness of "somewhere in between melted milkshake and cheap wall paint" really stood out this week. 👍
Made this last night for dinner (sans the bread and paired with rice instead). The Tartar sauce was TO DIE FOR. Definitely adding to the regular rotation of meals.
Yum! Nothing better than a fried fish sandwich, perfect timing too. I was thinking about searching out a recipe for the perfect fish fry recipe. Thank you Bri.
tried it today. very good result. although i used sprite instead of beer so i suppose the crust didnt turn out like yours. but it was still very crispy light and tasty. thanks!
Thank you for these videos Brian. I look forward to everyone you create. You've really nailed that fun inviting energy on camera that makes me want to try every recipe you post.
Neat factoid as to why Heineken tastes skunky: So brown glass bottles filters out UV light where as the green and clear ones don't. You'll notice this with many beers that don't traditionally come in brown bottles. The UV light breaks down some of the tannins in the beer to form some compounds that taste skunky. Next time you're at a pub ask for a Heineken if they have it on tap, you'll notice the skunky taste is absent!
Brown bottles filter 80% of UV Light Green bottles filter 20% of UV Light Blue bottles (Such as Kronenberg 1664 Blanc) filter 7% of UV Light Clear bottles dosen't filter it at all Ofir Izhar, Certified Cicerone
I agree with the cornstarch. I did your fish and chips awhile ago and followed your recipe to a T. Came out amazing! Sounds like I'm having fish sandos for dinner tomorrow!
Brian, I used your batter recipe for cod tacos. It was perfect. Light and crispy to the end. Even the room temperature leftovers were crunchy! This is the only batter recipe I have been able to find that didn't turn soggy and pasty. Thank you!
I used to work in a family restaurant, and my experiences with batter are exactly the same! The thinner the better, but my head chef always told me to make it thicker because he claimed it was crunchier... So I would continue to dilute the batter throughout the service without him knowing, haha! I also find the colder the batter the better, so I'd like to mix ice cubes through it before frying.
I made this recipe tonight for my dad's birthday meal. I used fresh snapper and in lieu of purely rice flour utilized a gluten free blend of rice, potato, and tapioca starches. He was so enamored with the final result. It fried up so light and very crunchy.
Absolutely perfect, follow the technique exactly. The batter also works for fresh mushrooms and onions. Very well executed Brian!!! It's going on my bar menu.
Stephen Cusato of Not Another Cooking Show has a great technique for fried fish. After initially getting it into the oil, once the exterior has started to crisp, he uses the spider to bring the fish close to the surface of the oil, and spoons some extra batter over the top of the piece of fish. This creates a sort of layered double crust on some parts of the fish, which gives you "more outside," and we do love the outside of a good piece of fried fish. This recipe would adapt beautifully to that technique.
I just tried it since I had cod in my fridge, and I don't regret my decision, it was delicious ! I made some tweaks though : for the batter I replaced the rice flour with corn flour since I didn't have any, I used sparkling water instead of beer, and for the tartar sauce I didn't have dill or capres so I didn't used any, it still came out really well ! Too bad we can't post picture here cause I'm pretty proud of how it came out ! Anyway, thanks Brian, you're quickly becoming my fav food youtuber cause all your recipes are pretty easy to recreate, I've done a few and it always worked well.
Indeed, this is by far the main reason I don't deepfry things like this. Where I live you have to put the used oil in a container (original container or water bottle or whatever) and bring it to the 'recycling park', there is no other way. And I really don't like doing that..
This is a great recipe that my Scottish husband LOVES. I would suggest making Brian's super perfect potatoey rolls instead of buying the super expensive brioche type rolls from the grocery store. Sure, they're good, but I was paying $5 for four before I started making Brian's recipe. They're just incredible.
Just made the tartar sauce for tomorrow (sadly, only had dried dill & parsley), but it tastes great anyway already. We have the frozen Cod thawing out in the fridge. Fingers crossed that it still turns out half as good as the video.
I’ve never had success deep frying fish. So I simply quit trying. Your video has provided a spark to try again. As one who has to stay away from booze. Any sub. for the beer. Thks.
As someone who loves to cook and observes Lent, I really appreciate this video. And as always, I love the dancing. More cooks should dance.
They probably do, they just don't let anyone see them doing it
Well, if my "robot movement thing" could be considered dancing.
All dance 💃🏻 here. Lol
I love that your Dutch oven is present in almost all the recipes. Shows how important it is to have few but quality key components in the kitchen.
Its an expensive piece, but VERY useful, and beautiful.

Tried this, very good recipe. Made it with Haddock in place of Atlantic Cod, still worked very well.
Delicious 😋 Greetings from Scotland 😊 Have a wonderful day everyone 🌻

Man that looks awesome. Brian, any suggestions on how to dispose of all that oil? (yeah. I realize it can be reused a couple times, but after that?)
Indeed, this is by far the main reason I don't deepfry things like this. Where I live you have to put the used oil in a container (original container or water bottle or whatever) and bring it to the 'recycling park', there is no other way. And I really don't like doing that..
Came here to ask this!
Get to know the managers of some local restaurants and they will likely let you dump it in their oil recycling reservoir out back.
You should do a pantry & fridge tour!
The slow motion dancing with pure joy, killed me! 😂 I love this video and can't wait to try out this sandwich.
This looks awesome! I use ginger beer in my fish batter but I’m definitely going to try your tartar sauce! Thanks Brian ♥️
Maybe use some leftover batter for some, I don't know, onion rings? 🤔 Looks good I like fish anytime of year.
AMAZING IDEA
would be amazing with blitzing together nori sushi seaweed and Maldon salt and seasoning the fried fish with it.
I fish for saltwater fish here, between Morro Bay and Big Sur, CA. This is one of the best recipes I have ever tried!
This is the best food channel here on the tubes.
Looks Good
Excellent recipe! I love fish and this is a very good way to prepare it. I love your fish tacos too
You're right, I did actually make it. It was great! I don't usually deep fry, or make fish, but this came out good! Great video.
I can feel how much effort you put into this video.
7:24 Best part. Happy eating everyone, don't forget to do a little happy dance. 😁
"You'll actually make."
Mate, I've watched literally thousands of cooking videos. Never made a single one of them.
I've made a few, they don't seem to look quite like the youtuber showed!
Awesome. Just in time for Lent :D
We'll need by the end of this year a montage of every dance in your video.
That'll kick off the next year pretty easily .

This looks insane as always! Keep up the good work dude 👏
I love any sandwich videos man!!!
That cod filet alone looked amazing I always find sad filets of fish in supermarkets...
"Somewhere in between melted milkshake and cheap wall paint is preferred."
This was hilarious and disgusting 😂
I fried this fish with this beer batter + Passion Fruit Mayo, it's a good combination too 😋

suggestions for what to do with the massive amount of leftover oil from the crockpot? thorough explanation wold be appreciated :)
What do you do with your used fry oil? Do you strain and re-use it? If so, how best to store it (and for how long)?
Doesn't that contribute to increased cancer risk?

Just subbed making this in scallops from smoking&Grilling with A B Channel mouth already watering.....
Any suggestions on what to sub for beer for those of us that don't use alcohol?

I'd recommend club soda. Hello back at ya.
sparkling cider also works well and has some nice sour notes

Recipe is great. Video quality amazing. But the dancing on the end of the video, so satisfying and so relatable 😅
"hey there, can you show me where your paint cans are? im trying to make beer batter.."
I'm never going to get tired of those dance moves.

I'd recommend non alcoholic beer so you still get some of the flavor. Otherwise club soda will work.
Thks. Brian for such a prompt reply. You’re A1.
I'm not a fish fan (nor tatar sauce), but I did it today! It worked out sick 😎Thanks for opening people for new taste adventures!
