The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

Fantastic! Wasn't sure if bluefish would taste as good as other whitefish I've beer-battered before, but the proof was in the taste. Delicious, crispy, not fishy. Just perfect. I was sure to remove all "red line" from each fillet by cutting out the red center 1/4" or so. Then I cut each "half" fillet into smaller pieces, around 2" squares. Gave it a good half hour in the batter before frying and fried at 375 degrees in a rectangular electric skillet with about 1/2" of oil in bottom. I'll make this again and invite a crowd, because it made a lot of fried fish out of 4 10" fillets. Thanks for the recipe!
