I have a side cabinet in my bathroom I have to open verrrrrry gingerly
because it's crammed with home CoVid tests from SSA.gov. Somehow I got
on a list ... and had to go dig around to find the proper box and then
"un-tick" it. I have yet to use the first of the tests kits.

I was not aware of their U-Toob presence. Is it behind YouTube's own
subscription (pay) wall? And is the recipe available for C & P at a
website or must you hand-enter it? Inquiring minds want to know.

There's a *rare* mis-qua from ATK. If your fillet is "skinless" then
ALL sides are "flesh-side.

Possibly, since a scale pattern can sometimes be discerned on some fish
even after skinning (and certainly before) they meant rib-side up.

     Title: Fried Catfish
Categories: Seafood, Dairy, Chilies, Citrus
     Yield: 5 Servings

     2 c  Buttermilk
     1 ts Hot sauce
     2 c  Cornmeal
     4 ts Salt
     2 ts Fine ground pepper
     2 ts Granulated garlic
     1 ts Cayenne pepper
     4    (6 to 8 oz) catfish filets;
          - halved lengthwise along
          - natural seam
     2 qt Oil
          Lemon wedges

 Set wire rack in rimmed baking sheet and line half of rack
 with triple layer of paper towels. Whisk buttermilk and
 hot sauce together in shallow dish. Process 1 cup cornmeal
 in spice grinder to fine powder, 30 to 45 seconds. Whisk
 salt, pepper, granulated garlic, cayenne, remaining 1 cup
 cornmeal, and ground cornmeal together in second shallow
 dish.

 Pat fish dry with paper towels. Working with 1 piece of
 fish at a time, dip fish in buttermilk mixture, letting
 excess drip back into dish. Dredge fish in cornmeal
 mixture, shaking off excess, and transfer to large plate.

 Add oil to large Dutch oven until it measures about 1 1/2"
 deep and heat over medium-high heat to 350+|F/175+|C.

 Working with 4 pieces of fish at a time, add fish to hot
 oil. Adjust burner, if necessary, to maintain oil
 temperature between 325+|F/163+|C and 350+|F/175+|C. Fry fish
 until golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. Transfer
 fish to paper towel-lined side of prepared rack and let
 drain for 1 minute, then move to unlined side of rack.
 Return oil to 350+|F/175+|C and repeat with remaining fish.

 Serve with lemon wedges.

 Serves 4 to 6

 TEST KITCHEN TECHNIQUE: For a crunchy, not gritty,
 cornmeal crust on this delta delicacy, we found that
 processing half of the cornmeal to a fine powder in a
 spice grinder gave the fried fish just the right texture.
 Along with salt and pepper, cayenne and granulated garlic
 season our cornmeal coating. A dip in hot sauce-laced
 buttermilk helps the coating adhere and seasons the fish
 even deeper. To maximize the crunchy exterior, we halve
 the filets to make catfish "tenders," and after only a
 few minutes in hot oil, they emerge crisp and golden
 brown.

 HALVING CATFISH: Before coating and frying the catfish,
 we cut the filets in half lengthwise along their natural
 seams. Why? It's easier to manage the smaller pieces when
 frying, the strips cook faster and more evenly, and we get
 a better ratio of crunchy crust to flesh on every piece.
