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

Remove the fish from the buttermilk, removing any excess. Dredge each fish in the cornmeal, coating each side completely. Lay the fish in the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 7 minutes. Remove from the oil and drain on a paper-lined plate. Season with Essence. In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, corn, onions, shallots, garlic, lemon juice, hot sauce, and herbs together. Mix thoroughly. Season with salt and pepper. Chill for 1 hour. Mound Maw Maws Slaw on a platter and arrange the fried fish and Jalapeno Hushpuppies around the slaw. Garnish with parsley and Essence. This recipe yields 6 servings.
