Steps:
- For the tartar sauce: In a bowl, add the parsley, tarragon, shallot, and cornichon. Chop the hard boiled egg by removing the yolk and crumbling it, then dice the white. Add both yolk and whites to the bowl. Add vinegar, salt, mustard, mayonnaise, and a few dashes of hot sauce (or more to taste). Stir to combine and set aside.
- For the beer batter: In a large mixing bowl, mix the cake flour and baking soda with a fork. Slowly pour in the beer, stirring the entire time (it's okay if there are a few lumps). The batter should be thin, falling off the fork easily so it coats the fish, not heavy like pancake batter. Set aside.
- Fry the halibut: Fill a deep heavy-bottomed pan with oil-don't go higher than 2 inches from the rim-and heat to 350 degrees F. Season the halibut with salt on both sides. Test the oil by cooking a few drops of batter; they should float to the surface when the oil's hot enough. Remove these "tester crunchies" with a slotted spoon. One piece at a time, drop the fish into the beer batter, then remove it, letting the excess drip off. Then place it halfway into the oil, letting a crust form for 10 seconds, then releasing it gently into the pan. Repeat with two more pieces (three at a time), so the pan isn't overcrowded and cook each for 3-4 minutes. Remove the fish to a baking sheet fitted with a wire rack to drain any excess oil. Season with flaky sea salt and serve with tartar sauce and lemon wedges.

Steps:
- Slice fish into rectangular fillets, roughly 6 inches by 2 inches. Remove skin if needed and pat dry with paper towels.
- Prepare your batter by adding 1/2 cup whole wheat flour, Old Bay, and egg to a shallow bowl. Stir a couple of times to break the yolk. Add beer and use a whisk or fork to combine until smooth. Set aside.
- Add vegetable oil to a large pot or saucepan, so that the oil is about 3 inches deep. Turn your heat source up to medium and monitor the temperature of the oil with a kitchen thermometer. Your target is to get your oil to 375°F.
- In a second shallow bowl, add 1/4 cup of whole wheat flour.
- Working with one fish fillet at a time, dip your fish into the flour first, coating completely. Then, take your flour-coated fish and dunk it into your beer batter, making sure you have an even layer of batter coating your fish.
- Carefully drop your battered fish into the hot oil, frying for 4 minutes total. Use a skimmer or sieve to flip the fish after 2 minutes, to ensure an even cook. Repeat with all of your fish fillets, making sure to not overcrowd your oil-the battered fish will stick together if they get too close.
- Carefully remove your fried fish from the oil and place it on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
- Serve immediately with lemon wedges.

Steps:
- Divide halibut fillet into approximately 1.5" cubes.
- Mix dry ingredients, add beaten egg. Pour beer in until proper consistency. Batter will be smooth and a little runny but thicker than water.
- The remaining beer is yours to enjoy.
- Add oil to frying pan until oil is approximately 1/2 the height of the halibut cubes; heat on medium high until suitable for deep frying.
- Make a test piece:.
- Coat halibut piece in batter, add to oil. Fry for two minutes, then turn with tongs (being very careful of oil spattering) and fry another two minutes. Transfer finished piece to a paper towel covered plate. Split piece with fork to check for doneness, if piece does not split easily and/or middle of halibut piece does not appear to be opaque, adjust cooking time and/or oil temperature to ensure pieces are done.
- When satisfied with cooking time, repeat until all pieces have been cooked (multiple pieces can be put in pan).
- Serve warm with tartar sauce.

SECRET FRIED HALIBUT
This is by far the BEST fried halibut I have EVER had! (That really says a lot being from Alaska you know hehe). Simple and delicious with a "secret" ingredient that will knock your socks off! Even my kids like it and they do not like fish at all. I find the perfect meal with this fish is "sticky rice" and creamed corn, but you decide for yourself!

Steps:
- Cut halibut into portion size pieces (this will vary with every family); set aside.
- In gallon ziplock bag combine all dry ingredients; seal bag and shake to mix. Add halibut pieces to dry ingredients and shake thoroughly again.
- In small bowl combine mayonnaise and mustard; mix thoroughly (secret ingredient!).
- Add some oil to skillet over med heat until oil begins to ripple. You will need to add more oil in small amounts at a time throughout cooking.
- Add halibut a few pieces at a time to skillet until full. DO NOT OVERLAP FISH. Cook until just beginning to brown on bottom side and flip. Once turned, lightly baste browned side of fish with mayonnaise mixture. Turn fish once more and repeat basting. The key to this step is to re brown basted sides of fish before removing from pan. The pieces should turn a deep brown (not black but close). That is when you know they are done.
- Serve while still hot. (May be kept in warm oven until all fish is done).

BEER BATTERED HALIBUT
Because of where we live a good fish fry is a hour away. Looked on the net for a good recipe as there was some halibut in the freezer calling my name. Michael Smith - Chef at Home - had an interesting looking and sounding recipe. Am I ever glad that I gave this a try. No more fish fry traveling for this girl. Very crispy and does not turn soggy after sitting.
