Guest guest Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 We're going on 26 years now thanks to Fried Chicken. I don't think that they had Chicken Fingers back 26 plus years ago where I live. Fried chicken and good beef brisket that melts in your mouth are what my husband likes to eat best for meat. Make some good old-fashion potatoe salad and barbeque beans and you're ready to set down and enjoy. Up until Jill's email I had not thought about using self-rising flour but I think I am going to try that next time I make chicken fingers or even better yet, good old catfish nuggets. Makes me hungry sitting here writing about it. ;-D Have A Happy New Year, Ya'll! Rhavda Texas > >Oooh, we love that dish at our house!! Have you tried marinating the >chicken in buttermilk?

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 Sorry, forgot to sign that ! Need more coffee this morning. The past few days have been rough. Had to put down one of our dogs late Wed night. Poor little guy had kidney problems. One of our other dogs died in her sleep and we found her in the morning on the 12 of Dec. She was an old dog and we knew that this would be her last winter. Max, our rat terrier, was Sasha's best buddy since they were always in the house and the other 2 dogs are outside dogs. It seemed that Max was starting to get better since being on his medicine but gave up when Sasha passed away.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 Dear Paula, If you are ever in Texas, contact me and I will fix you the best fried catfish that you have had in years. Catfish is a good old Southern delicacy that you have to love to enjoy it. It is easy to fix but getting the best catfish can be the problem. In fact I made catfish yesterday for my son. He said that he wanted his fried catfish fix before returning North to Annapolis and the Naval Academy. Obviously I found something else good to bring him home when he is allowed leave. ;-D Happy New Year! Rhavda >Next time you're having this for dinner, can I come ????

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 Dear Rita & Paula, We'll have to work out a virtual dinner party if you can't come here. The menu will be Southern Fried Catfish, Home-made French Fries, Black-eyed peas, Cornbread, Pecan (pecon & not peCan pie), coleslaw (two types one made with garlic/sour/tart & one made with mayo with a little sugar added to make it sweet), green tomatoe relish, onions, pickles & other condiments, iced tea made with rose syrup to sweeten it just enough, and some homemade biscuits for those that don't eat cornbread. How does that sound for a good dinner? Hey, Butch, how about joining us, too? You can bring the sippin' drinks since you're from the South also. The tip to making good fried anything is in the batter. If the batter isn't right, then the catfish or chicken will not taste right. It takes years for a good cook to come up with just the right recipe, and then, try to get that cook to share her recipe with you - good luck! It took me 25 years to get my mother to tell me how to make shrimp gumbo like my dad used to make it. It was a couple of ingredients that had to be fried before putting into the gumbo mix. She had just accidentally forgot to tell me how to do it right. I just laughed because I thought about how good cooks in anything protect their best recipe. Now I can also make good gumbo. Making Catfish or Chicken batter is much the same. IT TAKES YEARS OF PRACTICE & many, many mistakes. Rmember the best way to cook either of these is in a good, old-fashioned, iron skillet that has been around and seasoned for at least 50 years. When my mom gave up her house, I got the iron skillets because I was the girl. I've notice that my brother has been looking with a lot of lust in his eyes over the past few years at my skillets. I figure that I will give him one of my skillets one of these days in the far, distance future. There have been family feuds over who gets the iron skillets in some families when the head cook-in-charge passes. Marilyn Swartz's A SOUTHERN BELLE PRIMER, describes this phenomona as well as describes a lot of other Southern habits that will make you just laugh & laugh & laugh. Take care and have a great day! We ought to have a convention sometime so that we all can meet up and visit or get together at the next NAHA Conference to be held in September, 2005 in Denver, Colorado. It would be great to meet everyone and finally have our catfish dinner. I can bring the catfish and batter. Someone else can bring something else and so on. We will have a great time. Until then, our virtual dinner is . . . . Rhavda >OK I'm inviting myself.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 Okay Paula, I give up ! What is this chicken fingers thingy ? I've been off the computer and must have missed it all. Just got up and running again. Have the new XP now and I really like it. Okay, is this a new recipe or something ? If so, I would like to see it and maybe even get the chance to try it ? LOL.
