Why does my pan-seared fish skin get rubbery instead of crispy?
I've been trying to get that perfect golden, crackling skin but it either comes out soft and rubbery or the flesh overcooks before the skin crisps up. I'm patting it dry, starting skin-side down in a cold pan with oil, medium-high heat. What am I missing here? submitted by /u/gentlebloom53
