CRISP FRIED SMELT - SMELTS
I remember making these as a young girl during lent. The last time before today was for my FIL who is gone now for 22 years. He enjoyed them so. These small fish are very addictive. This simple recipe is easy quick and only 4 ingredients. Smelt is the name of a family of silvery fishes found in cool waters. Most measure less than 8 inches (20 centimeters) long. Smelts have a small, fleshy fin behind the dorsal fin on the back like trout and salmon. This is very inexpensive, making it great for those on a tight budget.

Steps:
- Rinse the smelts thoroughly and pat dry. Place the bread crumbs, salt and pepper into a large resealable bag and shake to combine. Place the lemon juice into a shallow dish. Dip the smelts into the juice and then place in the bag with the dry mixture and shake until the fish are well coated. You can coat 2 to 3 fish at a time, depending on their size.
- Place enough peanut oil into a 12-inch cast iron skillet just to cover the bottom of the pan. Place over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the smelts to the pan, 4 to 5 at a time, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 3 to 4 minutes per side until lightly browned and cooked through.

Steps:
- Buy as many fresh water smelts as you need. They are smaller and sweeter than sea smelts.
- Clean the smelts in cold water, cutting off the heads, and snip down the belly with scissors, to remove the bellies.
- Rinse out the bellies of each one, as you cut and snip the heads.
- Soak in cold water, until you are ready to cook them, or put in fridge.
- When ready to cook you will need:.
- Eggs, beaten in a lg. bowl, enough to dip all your fish in,(depending on how much you are making depends on how many eggs you.
- need).
- I use about 3 eggs for 2 lbs. of smelts.
- Jiffy corn muffin mix, (if you are cooking 2-3 lbs. of smelts 1 box will do. If you are doing more, then you will need at least 2 boxes).
- oil, enough to fill the frying pan up about 2".
- salt, to taste.
- Beat the eggs well, and put them in a bowl.
- Put Jiffy corn muffin mix in a lg. plate, and mix in salt, about 1/2 teaspoons per box.
- Put oil in frying pan to get hot. Cook on high heat, letting the pan get hot, before putting in your fish, then turn down the heat to med-high.
- Dip your fish in the egg, and then in the muffin mix.
- Deep fry in at least 2" of oil in a heavy frying pan, until golden brown.
- You can also use this corn muffin mix to cook any other sweet fresh water fish, such as horn pout, or what you may call catfish, bass, white perch etc.
