Linda Undutchable: Lucka 2: En bild på något gott du ar ätit i år

Då kör vi dag två på Emilys Dahls Blog julkalender ( instruktioner och massa av fantastiska berättelser hittar du på www.emilydahl.se) Dagens berättelse tar oss även än en gång till Columbus Ohio...antagligen därför att jag flög fram och tillbaka så ofta att Delta personalen började att känna igen mig..

2014 åt jag massor av god mat, mig gick det ingen nöd på..nej då.

Men vissa smak sensationer glömmer man aldrig, eller hur?

En rejäl snöstorm härjar och vännen T drar mig ut ur min Jobb-zone. Vi ska äta SOUL-FOOD, epic American good food..

Vi ska äta Chicken and Wafels!!! Med maple syrop .. Jo!

No problem! Jag häver i mig väldigt kryddiga kyckling bitar, drypande i lönn sirap i mellan två belgiska våfflor ( med sötpotatis pommes)..det var bara ett litet minus(pyttelitet eftersom det inte hade något med the chicken and wafels). Ölen..ölen smakade brylepudding!!!! Och det SKA öl inte smaka.

Det fins många recept..här kommer ett:

To Make Fried Chicken

In a medium bowl, beat the eggs, water, and hot sauce together. Reserve.
In another medium bowl, combine the self rising flour and 1 tsp black pepper.
Sprinkle the chicken pieces generously with salt, then lightly with garlic powder.
Dip the seasoned chicken pieces into the egg mixture, then coat in the seasoned flour.
Pour oil into a deep pot up to half full with oil, then heat over medium till hot enough for frying (350 degrees F as measured on a candy thermometer).
Submerge the chicken pieces carefully into the hot oil. Let the chicken fry till crispy and cooked through. Dark meat will take 13-14 minutes, white meat 8-10 minutes.
Place fried chicken on paper towels to drain off excess oil. Serve.

To Make Waffles

Preheat your waffle iron. In a large mixing bowl, sift together flour, salt, sugar and baking powder.
In a medium mixing bowl, beat the eggs, then beat in the lukewarm milk, butter and vanilla till well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir will a batter forms. A few small lumps are okay.
Pour the batter onto your waffle iron in batches. Amount per waffle will vary according to the size of your waffle iron. Let the waffles cook till golden brown and crisp.
Serve hot waffles with warm fried chicken, warmed maple syrup, and butter on the side.
Optional Kosher Modifications: Substitute almond or soy milk for buttermilk, use a non-hydrogentated butter substitute (like Earth Balance) to replace the butter.
