2. Make the batter by combining flour, corn starch, sugar, salt, baking powder, baking soda, onion salt, paprika, ground black pepper. Stir to combine all dry ingredients. Add club soda to dry ingredients. The batter will foam, continue to stir.

3. Drop pieces of fish into the batter.

Can't Miss Cooking Tips:
To keep the batter from sticking to the bottom of the basket, gently lower fish and hold it for a few seconds to allow it to form up a crust before dropping it into the basket. You can swap the club soda for beer for a great flavor. Have a little batter leftover? Slice up some onion rings, and make onion rings.
