Thought I would share a couple of classic catfish recipes. These would both be a great way to use your weekly shares.

Blackened Catfish

Ingredients

2 tablespoons paprika
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
Fillets cut into 4 (6-ounce) pieces
2 teaspoons olive oil

Preparation

Combine first 5 ingredients in a small bowl. Sprinkle both sides of fish with the paprika mixture.
Heat oil in a large cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add fish; cook 4 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

Fried Catfish
this one is always a favorite

Ingredients:

corn oil for deep-frying
3 to 4 catfish fillets, about 1 to 1 1/4 pounds
1/2 cup cornmeal
salt to taste, if desired
freshly ground black pepper to taste

Preparation:

Cut each catfish fillet in half crosswise.
Combine the cornmeal, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish.
Dredge the fish fillets in the cornmeal, patting to make the cornmeal cling to the fillets. Drop the fillets in deep hot oil at about 370°. Cook 5 to 10 minutes, or until crisp and brown.
Serve with slaw, ketchup, and hush puppies.
Serves 4.

My family has been harvesting part of our own food supply with multi fishing trips during the year. This year we've decided to share our bounty with others. We are still working on the details, but starting in February we will be offering a CSF membership for seafood portions
