Lard is certainly used in frying. Pressure cooker is used because it cuts down cooking time. So, the cooking temperature is too high. Lower it and cook longer! Personally, I'm not going to wait 6 hours for fried chicken. Still, on medium heat, I cook legs for 30 min. Thighs for 45 minutes. Very nice and juicy. I haven't tried any other pieces.

Back in the 90’s when air ovens first came out my dad wld flour the chicken as normal but he wld do a light spritz on all sides with PAM cooking spray. This eliminated the white flour on the final product.When you cannot eat regular fried foods that was a great alternative.

Sonya Cosby Henderson Indeed. There is no difference between an basic Airfryer and forced convection oven except size. You may save electricity and in some models a lot of warm up time. The high end models such as Phillips might be a little different in that it creates a turbulent flow circulating hot air from top and bottom.

For xcrispy; The chicken starts wet from the bag, to dry flour.. and then back to dry again, rest and dry again. You put the wet chicken into flour let it sit a few min. Then put it back into water then back into flour again.... Let it sit for about 10 min after shaking them off. Dust again. Let it sit for 10 min. Fry in lard. I added nothing but 1 tsp of season salt, & 1tsp of sugar along with about 1.5 tbsps of corn flour to 2 cups of flour. They cook their chicken for longer on lower heat. Good luck!

Emmy, I know another secret. I know this because a long time ago I used to work for the company that maintained all of KFC's alarm systems. I'm a "curious George" when it comes to watching how things work. The deep fryers used at KFC are pressurized - much like a home pressure cooker except it uses a pump to pressurize the chamber to 20 psi. My guess is that the pressure causes the chicken to cook throughout faster so the crust doesn't have quite so long to darken, the chicken loses less moisture (water evaporates at a higher temperature under pressure) and it may effect the way the crust forms. KFC also uses pre-battered and frozen chicken. They dump the frozen, battered chicken into the fryer basket and start the fryer before the chicken can thaw. [EDIT] I see now that I read the comments, a lot of people already know this, so I guess it's not such a big secret after all.
@donl14105 жыл бұрын
From the Trib interview article- 5. Does KFC continue to use the Colonel’s Original Recipe to make its fried chicken, or has the recipe been modified over the years? Kentucky Fried Chicken serves incredible tasting chicken made the hard way and The Colonel’s Original Recipe is still at the heart of our business in every one of our nearly 20,000 KFC restaurants in more than 125 countries. We have cooks in every one of our restaurants who hand bread and freshly prepare chicken all day every day. The chicken is prepared the same way Colonel Sanders first made it in the 1940s - we don’t take any short cuts. It takes 25 minutes start to finish to prepare for our customers. What some people may not know, is that in the 1970s we added an additional recipe - Extra Crispy Chicken. Extra Crispy is double breaded by hand with a unique mix of herbs and spices then it is open fried. By comparison, Original Recipe uses the 11 herbs and spices, is hand breaded once and pressure fried in Colonel’s unique method.

Helpful Hint: Monosodium glutamate (MSG) can be found on the spice/salt aisle of your local grocery store under the brand name "Accent" (in the USA, at least). And Emmy's right, it's nowhere near as bad for you as you might have heard. In fact, it might actually be LESS bad for you than ordinary table salt since you need to use much less of it to get the desired result, thus less sodium in your diet. A LITTLE BIT goes a LONG WAY. It's quite delicious when used properly.

Take a look at the ingredients of some of the food you commonly eat and have no problems with. It's almost guaranteed that there's MSG in them.

When I was a teenager in school I was in a work program that put us into jobs to try them out and was put into a KFC for a few days to cook and clean. The milk we dipped the chicken into was very runny. It was made up of a set measure of water added to milk powder. After the milk, it was then rolled in plan flower. It was then given a second dip into some water that was mixed with some egg powder and then dipped into the flower that had been blended with the bag of herbs and spices. They had special pre-measured bags with all the dry ingredients in. The chicken is also cooked in a large pressure cooker filled with oil you would lower the baskets filled with chicken into. You had to lock the lid down and close the pressure release valve once the chicken was loaded and set the timer. Once the timer went off you pulled a lever to release the pressure and then waited till after it had finished venting. Then you could release the lid and grab the baskets of chicken out with the removable handles from the baskets. Every few days they would swap the oil in a deep fryer normally doing one a day. The oil was drained out to be sent off to be reprocessed. At the bottom of the cooker was a trap to catch all the chicken coating that fell off while cooking. That was turned upside down on a fine mesh sieve to let the oil drain from it. The solid bits left over in the trap then got put into a container and put in the deep freezer to be sent off for processing. Apparently, it was ground down into a powder and sent back to the stores as the powder the gravy mix was made from for things like potato and gravy etc. After a certain number of chickens had been dipped in the milk and the egg powder they were replaced with a fresh batch. The milk powder was quite red by then. When the dry ingredients started to run low new premeasured bags where added.

This belief (that MSG is toxic) comes generally from a bad application of a small amount of knowledge by people not actually qualified to have an opinion. There are certain glutamates which can be very toxic and like anything, too much MSG ( and we are talking A LOT) can also be damaging but glutamates are a class of amino acid found in most savory foods. Every reputable study of MSG in people which has gone hunting for the mythic “Chinese Restaurant Syndrome” has come up empty- it’s just placebo effect.

Your episode here, brought back many "mom" memories and the flavor of a southern classic. I am actually happy I was raised in the deep rural back woods of Louisiana, and Fried Chicken made my Mom after Church every Sunday... God Bless You!!!

I've never done my chicken in buttermilk. I think it might be because my Dad used to drink buttermilk when I was a child, and I tried it and thought it was gross. 60 years later and I don't touch it. But I'm going to take a chance and use it in this recipe. I haven't seen it in my grocery store ever that I recall, but then I'm not looking for it. I also wondered what I would do with the leftover buttermilk. Turns out it freezes well, and lasts about 3 months in the freezer. It's good for biscuits as well, so it probably won't go to waste. And, I think you can make your own (I'll google it) IF I can't find it in the store. Re MSG. I thought it had gone off the face of the planet. I used to remember my mother's Sunday roasts always having "Accent" sprinkled over the top. Well, I saw Accent in the store recently and bought it. I assumed however that it was a reconfigured recipe...because MSG was gone, right? Wrong! I'm glad you brought it up. I did a little online research, and now I don't think I'll get cancer for sprinkling msg on my food. In my mother's belongings (she passed years ago) is a NuWave dome cooker. I've never used it. When I thought about fried chicken, I wondered if the NuWave was the same as an air fryer. You clarified that, as well as some google searches. So, I'm good to go. I'm looking forward to trying this.

I own a hot air fryer (HAF), and just love it! For foods which don't have oil already in their crusts, try pre-spraying with cooking oil, such as canola. The hot air frying literally blows the oil & grease off the item(s) you're cooking, leaving a virtually greaseless item when its done! When cooking a store-bought item such as an egg roll, which already has a lot of oil in it, first pre-warm it in your microwave before putting it into the HAF. When it's done, you'll end up with a crispy egg roll that's virtually grease-free! (Note: you will need to experiment with both cooking times & temps to get the right combination for each food item you cook in it, I've found! Be sure to turn over each item about midway through the HAF process as well.)

You need Self Rising Flour and Self Rising Flour with the herbs and spices in it. Also use white pepper and Amour Pig Lard, in bucket or box. Do not use cooking oil of any kind. Completely dry off the chicken before you roll it in the self rising flour (not all purpose flour) the add the chicken to the buttermilk/egg mixture then into the Self Rising Flour with Herbs and spices in it. Then let sit for about 10 minutes to set the coating. Then slowly drop it into the pig lard. If you forget to set the timer let the legs float to the top then give it another 5 minutes and it is done. I worked at Kentucky Fried Chicken and got to see the Colonel Sanders cook up a batch or Original and also Extra Krispy chicken.
