Some things that can be used to replace breading are ground sesame seeds,
parmesan cheese, some of the nut flours, or a combination of one or more of
them.

Frying it without any breading gives very decent result. Use some fish
seasoning.

It's good with Cajun seasoning.

I like it baked with some salsa on top.

Sorry. Missed the "fried."

Yep, Cajun, or many other seasonings.

Breading does not add much to taste (in my opinion). Processed food
manufacturers love breading because it is low cost. The consumer
thinks he is paying for fish, but he is paying for stale bread crumbs
and super cheap hydrogenated oil.

I agree, I don't cook anything with breading. I am lazy and will only add
extra work if the results justify it, particularly if a restaurant can do it
better. I never fry chicken, for instance. I made egg rolls once, man what
a lot of work! I decided that was something I would always let someone else
do. Part of what makes breaded things good is cooking them in a large vat
of hot oil. This is a real pain to deal with if you don't do it often (and
if you have a very small kitchen as I do.)

no doubt, plus, I can't see deep frying as being any good healthwise.
This comes from someone who eats smoked meat, so, maybe I am not being
consistent.

For the low-carbers at our annual fish fry, I marinated the catfish in
seasoned buttermilk, shook dry, and dredged in a low-carb baking mix
to which I'd added a great deal of freshly ground black pepper and
powdered dried chipotle, with salt to taste. It wasn't bad. The oysters,
which I just drained and dredged, were excellent.

I've been wondering whether one could construct something low carb that
remotely resembled a hushpuppy using a falafel-like mix based on black
soy beans.

doesn't smoking meat produce evil carcinogens?

Not that I know of. The carcinogens are created when meat is exposed to
high-level direct heat, as in grilling/broiling. Smoking (usually)
involves lower temps and indirect heat, which - as far as I know - do
not produce the "evil carcinogens".

Hasn't this been discussed, here, recently? Seems like I'm repeating
myself! 😉
