How do you get the stout fish taste out of catfish?
I cook fish often, but it seems that catfish is a more difficult fish than others to develop a predictable taste with (mainly grilled). Sometimes it has a great taste, then other times, there is a very harsh "fishy" flavor that overwhelms the spices and seasonings. I've heard of soaking the fish in hot sauce, but I don't know the specifics of how to do that. Any help is appreciated.
These are blue cats, straight from the river. Other kinds we catch are yellow, and channel cats. Mostly blue though.

Well it depends on the catfish. farm grown fish usually has a less strong flavor. If you are trying to mask the flavor there is always southern fried catfish. take the filets and cover them with louisanna hot sauce and then roll in cornmeal then into the fryer....there is also blackened catfish my personal favorite.
Thaw the filet in cold water then remove and let water run off and use a good blakening seasoning roll the filet in seasons and then put into a skillet (cast iron if possible) wait for skillet to smoke and then put in the fish. cook ...(Answered by biggdawg) |

A couple of things that you need to know:
Corn starch must be mixed with a water first [its called a slurry ] before it can be added to the other liquids
All starch thickened sauces must reach a boil before their full thickening power can be realized
Add the slurry incrementally , return to a boil , check for sauce consistency , repeat as needed
Your quality standard is that you shouldn't be able to taste the starch. longer cooking times help solve that problem.
Suggestion: if you're going to cook your sauce longer , use a spider and remove and reserve ...(Answered by mr danger) |

I'm almost 15 and I've labeled myself as 'cooking inept'. My only expertise is in the microwave. Its emmbaressing because all my friends can cook and I feel slightly overwhelmed at this point. Are there any good, relativly easy recipes or snacks, deserts that I can make? Also as a side question: How do I make fast, easy cookie dough just to eat? I'm addicted and yes its unhealthy, I know and sometimes everyone needs to whip up alittle just to munch on.

How can I organize my recipes to make meal planning & shopping as simple and pain free as possible?
I am a stressed overwhelmed mother of 4 and rarely have meals planned in advance. I have some good cookbooks, and I know there are excellent sources for recipes online, however, whenever I want to plan meals, I have to forage through the books and it takes soooooo long and I get overwhelmed. It would be impossible to put all the recipes from the books onto computer software. I'm at a loss!
Any advice would be appreciated! How do you plan meals?

If you have 4 kids, then you have been cooking for awhile now.
To start off easy, I would sit down and make a list of all the things that you have cooked, know how to cook, love to eat.
Try to separate the list into catagories, such as soups, chicken, beef, egg, favorites and so on. When you have made your lists, I think you might be surprised what you have and how many things you like and know how to make easily.
#2, Look at the schedule or calendar and see how many appointments ...(Answered by Nisey) |
