Click here The Food Lab's Southern Fried Chicken For many of us, growing up, fried chicken came from one place, and one place only: those grease-stained cardboard buckets peddled by the Colonel himself. But times have changed, and as is often the case, revisiting those fond childhood memories results only in disappointment and disillusionment. That said, stylistically, it can't be faulted. Here, we improve upon the original idea: deep chicken flavor; a flab-free skin; juicy, tender meat; and crisp, spicy coating. We might just be able to recapture those first fleeting childhood tastes of fried chicken as we remembered them. The Kitchen Essential Cast Iron Skillet Shallow frying in a cast iron skillet with hot fat, then finishing in the oven gives you fried chicken with a crisp crust and evenly cooked meat. Sides Fit for A Fried Chicken Feast Fried Bonus: The Instant Pot Is $68.99 That's the lowest price we've seen in months for our favorite (already affordable) multi-cooker. |

Korean Rice-Stuffed Chicken Soup
Your Recipe of the Day No Images? Click here Samgyetang (삼계탕, Korean Rice-Stuffed Chicken Soup) This Korean chicken soup contains small chickens, each stuffed with a mixture of sticky rice, jujubes, chestnuts, gingko nuts, ginseng, and more. The birds are poached in an herbal broth until incredibly tender and juicy. It's a warming soup that can be eaten year-round, not just in the cold winter months—in fact, in Korea this soup is a summertime dish, meant to make you sweat and, thus, cool down. A variation of this soup is sold at a Korean restaurant near the Serious Eats office, and it's a favorite among the staff—join us and make it your new lunch! The Kitchen Essential Cast Iron Dutch Oven We recommend using a large, heavy pot for cooking, but if you’re short on time, a pressure cooker will reduce cooking times by about half.

Bring the Bakery Home With Our Hearty Multigrain Bread
Your Recipe of the Day No Images? Click here Multigrain Sandwich Bread This hearty multigrain loaf starts with a 100% whole wheat dough that's loaded with rolled oats, chia, flax, and wheat germ. It bakes up light and chewy, not crumbly, with a nibby crunch—perfect for your morning toast or favorite sandwich. The success of this recipe depends entirely on the powerful motor of a good food processor, not a mini-chopper, to achieve intensive gluten development in the whole wheat dough. For those new to the technique, we recommend starting with our basic 100% whole wheat bread before jumping in with this multigrain variation. The Kitchen Essential Food Processor More Bread...
