| I know buttermilk is a traditional part of the process, but does anyone know why?
I marinate the chicken in a mustard-based liquid (with no buttermilk) and have always been satisfied with the results - Am I missing something by not including buttermilk? | | | |

| | Buttermilk is mildly acidic so it tenderizes the meat. | | Beta testing a new signature. | |

| | Now I know where the idea for the next DAWGS off-line came from. Wine with fried chicken? Everyone knows fried chicken is best with an RC Cola. | | Here's to the corkscrew - a useful key to unlock the storehouse of wit, the treasury of laughter, the front door of fellowship, and the gate of pleasant folly.

| | I tried DJHombre's suggestion of salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, and paprika in the flour of my fried chicken. I used vegetable oil. It turned out well just needed a larger amount of the spices. | | | |

| Fried chicken update:
I tried a small batch of this a few days ago. Seasonings were paprika, cayenne, salt, pepper, and I added a ton of garlic powder. BAM! It made a big difference and it was good. Vegetable oil as always. | | | |
