Never knew about the waiting step. Interesting.
I like fried chicken without batter or coatings, I hate having to peel that guck off !
Would you use the same process for fish?
You are amazing !
Thank you 😊
You know that scene in Clockwork Orange where the character has his eyes propped open to look at imagery, we should do that but with cooking shows!
I saw in documentaries what chickens have to suffer for such dishes.
I will never eat that again😢
i have never understood the swooshing it back in forth in the oil like your trying to wash it off. just stick it in the oil lol.
