Prepare fried chicken before frying
To make crispy, juicy fried chicken you must know how to prepare a pat. A key aspect of frying chicken is keeping the oil at a consistent temperature. Overheating the oil can cause the chicken to take longer time to cook and absorb too many oils. This could cause overcooked meats and burned breading. This should be avoided.
To ensure that the breading remains on fried chicken, press down on it.
Before you fry your fried poultry, ensure that it is completely cooked. The first thing you should do is check the meaty part for doneness. The skin should always be pierced using a knife and the meaty area should register at least 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Inspect the meatiest section of the chicken with an instant-read thermometer to make sure it is cooked.
You can get crispy skin by using a buttermilk salt
To make fried chicken, you can use a buttermilk marinade. This is a great way of giving your bird the best skin and interior. Make the brine first: In a large bowl, combine water, salt, sugar, and stir. Heat to dissolve the sugar, and then let cool completely. Add flour and cayenne pepper. Allow the chicken to rest for at least two hours before you fry it.
Use a dry brine for flavorful fried poultry

It also contains spices. Combine the water and half of the sugar and spices. Let it stand for approximately two hours or overnight to make the brine. Once it reaches room temperature, pour it over the chicken, and then refrigerate it for at least two hours before you fry it.

How to make a perfect omelet
Omelets are my favorite breakfast dish. How can you make them perfectly? Many different recipes and methods have failed to work for me. So I wanted to share some tips and tricks so that you can make delicious, fluffy omelets every morn.
It is important to know that eggs can be temperamental when making omelets. It is important that eggs are fresh from an organic market and kept cool until used. If they are not kept cold enough, the whites won’t form properly. The yolks will also break down too quickly and become runny. This makes your omelets look weirdly colored. It is best to use room-temperature eggs if you are going to cook them right away.
Another tip is to separate each egg before adding them to the saucepan. You don't want any white to get mixed up with the yolk because this could cause the omelet to curdle.
The bottom part of an egg that is added directly to the stovetop might be burned, which could cause a ruined texture in your omelet. Instead, put the egg in the microwave for 10 seconds before putting it into the pan. The microwave heat is sufficient to cook the egg without overcooking.
Next, let's talk about mixing the eggs. Mix eggs well together. Turn the bowl upside down and grab the whisk to do this. Next, shake the bowl vigorously. This will whip the air around the bowl and mix the egg well.
Now it's time to have fun: pour the milk into the mixture. First, pour half of the milk into the beaten eggs and then fold the eggs gently into the remaining milk. You don't need to worry if streaks remain. They will disappear once you flip your omelet.
After folding the eggs fold the pan onto medium heat. When the oil starts to hot, wait for the pan to cook. Once the oil has gotten hot, add 1/4 cup of butter and swirl it around so that the entire pan is coated. Next, carefully open the lid and sprinkle salt into your pan. An additional pinch of salt will prevent the omelet form sticking to your pan.
Cover the pan once you have formed the omelet. Wait for the top to set. Use a spatula to flip the omelet or turn the pan upside-down. Cook the other side for another minute or two. Take out the omelet and place it in a bowl.
This recipe works best using whole milk. Skimmed milk is also possible.
