This Martha Stewart/Chris Kimball recipe does the buttermilk soak and double dip but with flour only--no bread crumbs. It's foolproof and delicious! My mom and aunt have never fried chicken using breadcrumbs, just flour and neither do I.

Whoa - I want that dozen of eggs!!! The yolk is my favorite part!

I thought of Dove chocolate at first too. Didn't know people hunted and cooked doves.

Thanks to you that knew what I was talking about. Being from southeast
Texas, I assumed people would know I meant the bird..silly me!
Your suggestions sound great and are most appreciated!

Hoo-boy, my springer spaniel would loooove you if you cooked her up one of those birds. She barks at the doves that sit on our overhead telephone lines on a daily basis, and despite her age (7) attempts to jump that high to capture them. Luckily she only makes it about 6" off the ground.

Her greatest accomplishment to date has been the "great flush of 2009" where she flushed a rabbit out of a nearby bush. The rabbit then mocked her from the neighbor's yard.

On a serious note, I'm thinking butter and tarragon...braised, nom.

They're essentially the same as pigeons so you can try looking up pigeon recipes too.

And when I first saw the thread title I also thought of chocolate.

They're tastey but they're like 700 calories each!!!!!!

Love the grape Crush pop, but it's the only one I'll drink.

I like all sorts of soda. I guess I rarely drink grape because typically I'm looking for "cold caffeine" and less sugar. But, if we are at a cookout or other event where tubs of sodas are iced down and I find a grape, I'll go for it.

Now, if you want to find most of the grape soda lovers in the world, head to South America, especially Brazil. Fanta orange and grape are big sellers there - if you need a break from the guarana ...

you obviously have never worked in a restaurant that has participated in restaurant week. i would quit if i were forced to more than one a year. as would the entire waitstaff and most of the other cooks. i can't deal with the picky cheapskates that come expecting the world and not even willing to give a decent tp.

There was a rock service station on the road from Wichita Falls to Greenville, Texas when we were kids. They had one of those big boxes full of almost frozen water in which were suspended glass bottles of Grape and Orange Nehi sodas and Coca Colas. These were the best things ever when you were driving the 1955 Chevy with no AC in the summer to see Grandmother. They also had a nifty cage with squirrels in it and of course.

AHH the essence of my childhood! Seeing that photo reminded me of drinking grape soda at sleep away camp in peconic dunes, while eating a grape ice pop during snack time--sandals in the dirty sand, sitting on a log, grit from the ground clinging to the condensation on the bottom of that cold purple can of Welches. You nailed it on the head...I am not a soda gal these days. When I get the urge I prefer a limonata or a trader joes grapefruit soda, but I still LOVE a grape soda now and then. Boylan's does a nice version of grape soda (even diet when your feeling sugared out) and if you live in the burbs, Fuddruckers has it on tap.
