  3. Marinate the fish in the seasoned buttermilk. In a mixing bowl, mix the cornmeal and flour together. Season the mixture with Emeril's Essense, salt and pepper.

Remove from the oil and drain on a paper-lined plate. Season with Essense.

  5. Mound the Maw Maws Slaw on a platter and arrange the fried fish and Jalapeno Hushpuppies around the slaw. Garnish with parsley and Essence. Serve the chilled sauce on the side.
