WHITE CATFISH STEW
I received this recipe from a friend at work. It makes about one gallon of thick white catfish stew. Use at least a 5 quart pot. I like it spicy so I usually add a little cayenne pepper to the pot in addition to the hot sauce. You can add tomatoes to make a red catfish stew.

Steps:
- Cut catfish into thumbnail-size squares.
- Salt and pepper pieces pretty heavily and put into refrigerator until time to use.
- Peel the boiled eggs and chop into small pieces.
- Peel potatoes and cut into small cubes and cover with water until ready to use.
- Peel onions and slice into rings.
- Fry fatback crisp.
- Put pieces aside and pour drippings into a large pot.
- Bring fatback drippings to a medium heat, add onions and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally; remove onions to a bowl.
- Put about 4 or 5 cups of water in the pot, bring to a boil, put the potatoes in the pot.
- You might have to add more fresh water to barely cover the potatoes.
- Cook about 15 or 20 minutes;I crumble up the fried fatback and put it in with the potatoes, but you don't have to.
- Put the onions back in the pot with the potatoes and bring to almost a boil, throw in a handful of fish, stir a little, throw in some more fish, stir a little more, do this until you use all the fish.
- I use a long skinny spoon so the fish won't get all mashed up; I like chunks of fish in the stew.
- Add the boiled eggs and stir.
- Cook on medium for about 6 minutes.
- Stir a couple of times to be sure the potatoes aren't sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Taste.
- Add more salt, pepper, and hot sauce if needed.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Step 1: Start with a large heavy bottom pot or large dutch oven.
- Step 2: Cut up the bacon into small 1-inch pieces. Put in the dutch oven and turn the heat on to medium-high heat. We want to start rendering out the fat of the bacon.
- Step 3: Once the bacon has started rendering the fat out, we will next put in our celery, onions, and garlic. Let them cook for about 3 to 5 minutes or until the celery and onions become translucent. Make sure to stir often so as not to burn the garlic and onions.
- Step 4: Add in the water. Next, add the tomato paste and hot sauce. You can also add in the seasonings at this point too. Bring the mixture up to a boil and stir to incorporate the tomato paste.
- Step 5: Add in the potatoes once the tomato paste has been incorporated, turn the heat down to medium heat.
- Step 6: Add in the catfish fillets. As the catfish fillets are cooking, I like to use my wooden spoon to break the fillets up.
- Step 7: I like to let the potatoes cook down really well. I will usually let this go on a simmer for roughly an hour or two. This will cause the catfish stew to thicken up slightly as the potatoes cook down and the stew reduces. Make sure to add a little water to it if it cooks down too much.
- Step: 8 Once it has gotten to the right consistency, it is time to serve it. Ladle out the stew into a bowl. Serve with saltine crackers and hot sauce.
