The Best Fried Chicken Recipe Ever?
Has anyone ever had the fried chicken from Omar Khayams in Manila? I had it in the mid 70s and have never had such wonderful chicken in my life. Do you have a friend from Manila that might know the secret?Lets see just how good this internet system is!
The Best Fried Chicken Recipe Ever?
I'd like to comment about something Dave Faris wrote: "Bacon, butter, AND lard? Come on. My cardiologist just had a heart attack hearing about this recipe."
Let me try to put Mr. Faris' fears to rest. In 1900 heart disease and heart attacks were so rare that the adverage doctor didn't know how to treat it.
In 1930, when the population of the US was 123,000,000 there were 3000 heart attacks deaths recorded. Which means the odds of having a heart attack that year was 42,000 to 1. In 1960 when the population of the US was 197,000,000 there were 500,000 heart attack deaths. Why? Answer: Diet. Everyone was using "Bacon, butter, AND lard" back in the 1800's with no heart disease as a result. It wasn't until after 1930 that everyone started using "heart healthy" vegetable oils and margarine, low fat this and low fat that. The result? The odds of dying of a heart attack in 1950 was about 3500 to 1.
Got Lard?

I was looking around for great chicken recipe and this one came up. I cannot wait till try it, but I was wondering. Would it be ok to freeze after soaking in buttermilk step? So I can just thaw and cook some when I want some. I know it probably won't be as good if you cook right away, but I rather be able eat chicken when I want without waiting 24 hours for preparing the food. I could see this be very helpful for families too. If you’re planning cook this chicken for them, because according to buzz on this chicken "More please" haha. Btw thank you Edna and Scott for sharing the recipe and the site too. For the healthy poster, who post on this chicken recipe and wanting to change it. It’s great you have chosen to live a healthy life style and chose to eat healthy, but why are you looking at fried chicken recipe? Here my motto. “Tis better to love and lost then have not love at all.”: by Shakespeare. Better to eat food and lose the weight then have not eaten the food at all.
Bonappetit

I am cooking this tomorrow! Cannot wait to try it.
Come on people. Seriously have you not kept up with the current medical data out there? Lard is not bad!!! No transfats (you know those artery damaging things) Butter is not bad!!! I'll give you peanut oil, but Canola??? There is no such thing as a canola plant...It comes from the word Canada because it is a genetically engineered oil from the rapeseed plant. Our ancestors have been eating animal fats from the dawn of time,or at least fire :O) and if you check your statistics heart disease started to rise at the dawn of the industrial age i.e. refined oils! So, I think I'll cook me up some of this delicious sounding fried chicken cooked in lard, coconut oil, grapeseed oil or the butter from a non genetically modified cow! Bon Appetit!! :O)

This cookbooks is awesome; rented it from the library! Really down home recipes in here.
Anything fried in lard is awesome, but I would save this type of recipe for a special event.

This is basically my Grannies recipe. It was and is the absolute best fried chicken I have ever laid my lips on. Granny pulled the skin off and she put a little cayenne in the brine and the dredge and to make it spicy. I miss my Granny not only did she make the best fried chicken but also many other home no recipe treats. Her measurements were like :butter as big as a hen's egg, enough milk to make it wet, and things like that. Self taught and her own sense of measurement but a great cook and a greater lady.
