2. Tips for Choosing Chicken for Perfect Results

To achieve maximum flavor, it is best to choose young free-range chicken weighing around 1 to 1.5 kg. This young free-range chicken has fine fibers, making it easier to soften and ready to be processed into an appetizing dish. Ensure that the chicken you choose has fresh pink meat color, is free from fishy odors, and has a firm texture when pressed.

Avoid large or older chickens, as they will be difficult to soften. Don't forget to also pay attention to signs of freshness such as unchanged color, no unpleasant smell, and a texture that is not mushy. By choosing quality chicken, you will get delicious and tender fried chicken, ready to delight your taste buds!

To enrich the flavor, try adding candlenuts and shallots for a savory touch, as well as chili for an enticing spiciness. Adjust to your taste and don’t hesitate to get creative with your own secret spices.

Some spice combinations worth trying include yellow seasoning made from turmeric, ginger, garlic, and coriander; red seasoning with red chili, shallots, garlic, and candlenuts; and refreshing white seasoning from garlic, ginger, lemongrass, and kaffir lime leaves. Happy creating!

4. Storage Techniques to Keep Fried Chicken Delicious

To keep fried chicken delicious and appetizing, store it in a tightly sealed container in the refrigerator for a maximum of three days. Make sure the chicken is completely cool to avoid condensation that can be bothersome. When you want to reheat it, avoid the microwave as it can make the meat tough; it is better to use an oven at a low temperature or fry it briefly over low heat. To maintain the crispiness of the skin, fry the chicken again before serving, but don’t do it for too long so the meat stays juicy and doesn’t dry out. Enjoy your meal!
