You should invest in an inexpensive light souce for your cooking videos. It would make a huge difference in your videos.

Earth Balance vegan butter. Healthy and taste great!! I'm going to try your recipe....

Great challenge! I personally love both, but I've seen chefs say you need these things to have the best blackened fish: fish, blackened seasoning, cast iron, purified butter. Super simple!

Awesome video on the blackened fish. Makes me hungry.

I’m making this! Thanks for the butter idea… I’ve never done this for fish and I’m anxious to try it.

you said "available in most publixes" haha I thought that was funny. Thanks for the video, I am baking some flounder right now

Hard to understand ... 6:05 ... Why not have two plates? One plate with olive oil ones on the left, and then different plate for the butter ones on the right? My OCD really kicked in, Bro ...

Can you also do a video on that cooking surface? It looks
great.

I have blackened with a butter and olive oil mix then season as you do, it works well

[waynereed]

Mix the olive oil and the butter 3/4 oil, 1/4 butter get the flavor but not it's not near as bad for you
And the Paul's blacking season is the only one to use.
Now I'm hungry!

I use avocado oil, tastes great and has a high smoke point around 500 Fahrenheit.

Interesting preparation. I'm about to try the Paul Prudhomme Magic Salmon seasoning tonight.
