corona/beer battered fish and shrimps..

I often see them on menus at restaurants and wondering how haram are they.. haha.

Re: corona/beer battered fish and shrimps..

LOL so there’s a level of haraam-ness now? :smack:

Re: corona/beer battered fish and shrimps..

lol well when u cook with alcohol supposedly the alcohol burns away... dont know how true that is.

but alcohol is used in a lot of dif things here and used a lot in italian food specially with pasta sauces. pink sauce usually has either vodka or champagne but u dont really taste the alcohol and u def dont get drunk.

Re: corona/beer battered fish and shrimps..

^lol.. yeah, everyone keeps saying the alcohol burns off..

Re: corona/beer battered fish and shrimps..

:nono:

Re: corona/beer battered fish and shrimps..

Pareezay - you can order without the beer. They pour it in the batter right at the time of cooking for the flavour

If you cooking at home - you can use substitute ingredeient minus the alchohol such as sparkling non-alcoholic apple cider or regualr sprite. It gives it the FIZZ in the batter

Re: corona/beer battered fish and shrimps..

^ So they use the bear for fizz or also for the taste? cause with sprite or apple cider, you can replace the fizz factor but there is a huge difference between the taste of bear and cider ..

Ahem .. i mean, I was told by someone that there is a huge difference between the taste of bear and cider …:whistling:

Re: corona/beer battered fish and shrimps..

:chai:

I think club soda or seltzer would be better substitute than sprite or cider.

I certainly hope that there’s a huge difference between the taste of bears and cider TLK Bhai! :smack2:

Re: corona/beer battered fish and shrimps..

^ Tell that to Nj .. she is the one suggesting bear by cider ..

^ No..u're the one suggesting BEARS instead of BEER!

Re: corona/beer battered fish and shrimps..

and I kept doing it :smack:

that proves my innocence .. I dont even know the correct spelling, let alone the taste

Re: corona/beer battered fish and shrimps..

Bear and Beer :smack:

They only pour it for the little bubbles in the batter. The quantity of beer or sprite or cider is very little. You can barely taste it.

Plain soda-water works well...

Re: corona/beer battered fish and shrimps..

yes :)

Re: corona/beer battered fish and shrimps..

Im not making them.. Im curious about the ones they serve in restaurants and if we are allowed to eat them.

It depends Pareezay I don't think so are allowed to eat or drink alcohol in any form. Even I heard that Olive Garden resturant's most dishes include alcohol.

Re: corona/beer battered fish and shrimps..

Contrary to popular belief, usually a percentage of alcohol REMAINS AFTER cooking, percentage varying on degree of heat and method of cooking.

This was from an American study. If u google it u should find it. They have a table...

Re: corona/beer battered fish and shrimps..

Thanks Rupay .. I was trying to put all these people on Rah-e-raast but no one was listening .. I am sure Google can do a better job than me
