I actually went and had some last night and jesus christ my palate was offended. Even when swimming in malt vinegar and tartar sauce, I just couldn’t stand it. I can fix this:
Salt, pepper, paprika, garlic, cumin, and cayenne in the dry dredge
A dry stout in the wet dredge mix instead of a lager or a pale ale, anything with a body really
Maybe a layer of panko breadcrumbs I toasted beforehand
A far more flavorful fish than cod, i’m thinking salmon fingers
The sun never set on the British empire, and they never used the spices they stole.
well, I gotta say, I lived in the UK, their standard for fish and chips is oily af; it’s hard to enjoy the toppings and use the thing as a vehicle for sauces etc when it’s super greasy from breading to fish. I’ve had better fish and chips in Canada and Belgium.

That kind of just sounds like you went to a bad restaurant.
Counterpoint: some people eat food so covered in spices/herbs/etc. they lose the ability to taste more subtle flavours.

It’s almost like some people have different preferences. Wild.
