CRISPY BEER BATTER FISH & CHIPS
Virtually every beer-battered fish recipe looks crispy coming out of the fryer, and some even stay crispy for a few minutes, but then the inevitable sogginess sets in. Well, with this simple formula, and a few easy tricks, you can achieve a fried fish where the last bite is as crisp as the first. The keys are keeping your batter really cold and patting your fish really dry. Serve over a bed of salt 'n vinegar chips with tartar sauce and lemon.

Steps:
- Whisk self-rising flour, rice flour, and baking powder together in a bowl. Freeze until ready to use.
- Pat fish as dry as possible. Cut pieces lengthwise to get eight 1-inch thick strips. Place rice flour on a plate and season with salt. Dust fish lightly with the mixture and shake off excess. Cover a plate with crinkled foil to make a quick drying rack; place fish on top.
- Heat oil in a deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Pour beer into the flour mixture and whisk, adding more as needed, until batter is the consistency of thick pancake batter. Dip fish pieces into the batter to coat; lift out and let excess drip off.
- Fry fish in batches until golden brown, dunking occasionally if needed, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Serve immediately.

BEER BATTERED BASS
A study conducted at Auckland University in New Zealand leads researchers to believe that beer-battered fish may be healthier than fish fried in other batters. The alcohol in the beer causes the cooked batter to form a hard shell, keeping it from absorbing much of the frying oil. The researchers suggest using one cup of beer for each cup of flour!
