There\u2019s a bottle of cold beer in the fridge right now that\u2019s better used in fish taco batter than in a glass. That\u2019s the trade I make every time I\u2019m making these, and every time it\u2019s the right call. Cold Modelo, 350\u00b0F oil, cod strips crackly golden in about three minutes. This is the taco you\u2019ve been chasing since the last time you were somewhere warm and ate standing up.<\/p>\n

Most beer batter recipes skip an important detail\u2026. the beer needs to be cold. Cold, straight from the back of the fridge; cold. And don\u2019t try to substitute the beer, it makes a batter we simply can\u2019t replicate with anything else. You want crunch \u2013 this is how to get it. <\/p>\n

The first bite? Crackly batter, cold creamy heat from the crema, crunch from the lime slaw, and a brightness from that squeeze of fresh lime that pulls all of this together like you\u2019re on the coast at your favorite fish shack. You\u2019ll be standing over the stove, eating the first batch before the second one is out of the oil.<\/p>\n
