For me, every once and a blue moon I get a craving for fried fish. Not necessarily the fried whiting you'd find at
Henry's on U St [yum yum !!] or many of the other soul food eateries in the area but the old school Italian style I was graced with for so many dinners growing up. Really it can be any kind of fi
sh, large or small, pick it up fresh from the seafood dept and if you don't know exactly what you're doing have them clean the fish while they're at it. Take it home give it a good rinse and toss it in flour. Nothing special- it you want season the flour with salt, hot pepper flakes and dried parsley but you don't even have to. When you're ready just drop them in a deep pot with a finger of vegetable oil and fry till they turn golden brown. Remove, drain on a paper towel and serve with sea salt and lemon wedges.
