All in all, think of this as your masterclass in ordering the perfect fish supper in the borough, and Fish N Drop is here to help you out.
Cod, Haddock, or Something Bold?
The first step is picking your swimmer. This is not just a formality; it really is the basis of your meal.
What fish is the king of fish-n-chips? Cod is! Cod is the traditional fish to go with. It has a light, crisp texture that is tender, in that it absorbs your batter and your vinegar very well. Cod is your default & comforting choice.
What fish is the hipster alternative to cod? Haddock! Haddock is a more creative option. It is slightly firmer than cod. And stands up well to a thick batter. Haddock is often a little glossy in the flesh.
What about something brave? Some places in Brooklyn have started to step away from the traditional fish-n-chips with some options that are meatier, like halibut. But this fish is expensive than cod or haddock.
Batters, Breadcrumbs, and Gluten-Free Options
The fish n fry in Brooklyn serves in a crisp shell that defends your treasure by all means. So, it is where philosophies separate.
Beer Batter: The British original. A good beer batter should be light as air, crack with a crisp snap, and have a mild note of yeast.
Breadcrumbs: This is the certainty of crunch and the often-found intro on American-style “fish frys.”
Essential Sides and Sauces
Mushy Peas: The name might scare you – and we give it as much respect as the colour – but these minty & savory smashed peas are the traditional palate-cleansing sidekick.
Tartar Sauce: The traditional best friend. If it’s homemade, you have a great chance of a fantastic meal.
Classic Pub, No-Frills Chippy, or Trendy Eatery?
Do you prefer the dark wood and a perfectly pulled pint in a traditional pub? Or would you choose where your supper is served, wrapped in paper? Also, you could prefer a restaurant with craft cocktails and share plates? After all, you should match the context to your mood.
