Did ya’ll know that today is National Fried Chicken Day?

How about cookin’ some fried chicken:

Basic Southern Fried Chicken

Paula Dean’s Southern Fried Chicken

Alton Brown’s Fried Chicken

I fix my fried chicken by soaking it overnight in buttermilk. Next, I mix salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder and sage with flour, put the flour mixture in a bag and shake the chicken in the flour mixture. Then I fry it in a cast iron skillet. Yum!

You can learn all about the history of fried chicken at The Food Timeline.

Happy Fried Chicken Day!

Do you have wet salt that won’t come out of your salt shaker?

Add a few grains of rice to your salt. The rice will absorb any moisture in the air and keep the salt dry and free-flowing, even in damp weather.

One pint sour milk, 1 1/2 pint New Orleans molasses, 1 teaspoonful soda, 2 teaspoonsful cream tartar, 1 egg well beaten, 2 tablespoonsful melted lard. Peel, core, and chop fine, 3 large Russet apples, corn meal enough to make a stiff batter. Place a paper in the bottom of a well greased pan, bake 3/4 of an hour in a moderate oven, as it burns easily.

From The Centennial Cookery Book, 1887
