Chicken Prep
For the best fried chicken, brine the chicken before frying to ensure it stays moist and flavorful. Consider using a blend of spices in the breading for added complexity.
Homemade Pimento Cheese
Homemade pimento cheese is far superior to store-bought. Use high-quality cheddar cheese and roast your own pimentos for the best flavor.
Biscuit Perfection
Use cold ingredients when making buttermilk biscuits to ensure they are light and flaky. Handle the dough gently to avoid overworking it.
Chow Chow Selection
Chow chow recipes vary significantly. Choose one that balances sweetness, tanginess, and spice to your liking. Homemade is often preferred.
