/ck/ - Food & Cooking

Throw 4 or 5 pieces of bacon in a dutch oven or deep walled pot on medium heat until thoroughly cooked through.

knowing /ck/ this thread will still be here when it’s time to fry

Throw a cup of flour and more of the same spices in a fucking plastic bag. Shake it. Toss in your chicken and let it rest for 30 minutes. I decided to go in with a bit of corn starch for extra crunch.

Nah. I make my shit before hand.

Dice up an onion and prepare your greens.

Pull the bacon and fry the onion in the fat. Fry until the onion starts turning translucent.

my brain spent a good 30 seconds trying to identify what sort of plastic wrapped meat the blue horse was meant to be

Fill up your pot with your greens. You may need to do this in batches. I had about 10 cups of loose kale. Pour in some chicken stock (I used 4 cups). Let that bitch simmer for 2 hours stirring occasionally.

>>18611680
That's a secret for me to know and you to ponder for eternity.

This is what your greens should look like when cooked down.

>>18611683
>2 hours
why not just opt for collard greens at this point

Set your fryer to 350F. Don't crowd that shit either. Do it in batches if needed. 25 minutes per batch.

>massive fucking sections of breading missing
bro.........

>>18611689
Any good greens take a long time, my guy.

If you need to batch, let the first rest in the oven at 165F if your range goes that low.

Chop a tomato and your bacon. Throw that shit in your greens and stir.

I ain't Colonel Sanders, dude.

>>18611708
The corn starch was a mistake. Plate and eat up.

>>18611708
you ain't no Colonel Standards, either (this is a comedic play on words to insinuate you have low standards in the preparation of fried chicken, implying a sign of quality to be the coverage of breading on the meat as to both contain moisture and prevent oil seepage)

>>18611712
No shit. I used tongs to get the chicken out of the dredge. I don't do that swamp finger bullshit.

>>18611719
gloves exist

>>18611724
Who tf uses gloves at home?

>>18611728
heat resistant cotton liners are like $3 and exterior food-safe nitriles are another $5 for a box of 200, who the fuck doesn't use this for handling raw meat and hot meat/trays at home?

>>18611743
Normal people.

>>18611749
lazy and disgusting people, much like yourself. very rude to project that onto others

>>18611757
Tongs and pot holders. So unsanitary. What a dumbass.

>>18611775
>tongs for raw chicken as opposed to disposable gloves
yes, significantly more unsanitary. your laziness is exemplified by how egregiously underbreaded the chicken is. consider a cooking class
