What is your Favorite Fried Food ?
« on: Wed, 25 October 2017, 10:38:28 »
Tp4 most prefers Chicken Thighs..

--Drumstick a close second..

--Breast is good, but usually too dry

--Wings are better on bbq vs fried, imho, because it can easily become too dry in the fryer

Hrrrmmm... they should probably customize a tortilla for chimichanga  Similar to spring roll skins..


it's a blend of different flours to improve flakiness/leavening.  Because wheat flour ALONE when fried becomes very hard and dense..

Most things are excellent when fried, but I agree with chicken at the pinnacle.

Depending on who makes it.. the structure could vary.

But usually, it's lightly diced shrimp, gelled together with a substrate..

Then battered/powdered and deep fried.

We just fry the whole shrimp, minus the head and tail of course.

The benefit of shrimp ball, is you can Tune the flavor/ texture a bit by varying the binding substrate.

I'm guessing "fried" is American for "deep fried", right? xD

If so, probably tempura or something.

If pan fried, steak.

Not exactly, but in casual usage saying "fried + whatever" implies a battered and fried whatever, especially in a casual or fast food context.

A pan fried steak would be called a "pan fried steak" but a pan fried egg would simply be a "fried egg", and a pan fried pancake would be a "pancake".

it's odd, because even a fried egg is not technically fried by the Western meaning. And to further complicate the term, french fries are not battered yet would still be considered fried.
It really comes down to being dipped in oil I suppose.

Doughnuts are a great fried food. And once at a fair I had a butter-battered fried snickers that was pretty good too.

Here in NC we deep fry everything. Heres an idea from last week's fair: https://www.indyweek.com/food/archives/2017/10/09/first-in-fried-heres-what-to-eat-at-the-north-carolina-state-fair-this-year

I think for me fried pickle chips and some dill sauce is my favorite.

I thought the only purpose to hydrogenation was that it suspends better in packaged foods.

I didn't know they'd hydrogenate lards / butter for cooking.

Most animal fat IS already saturated, but some isn't. Because unsaturated fats are more prone to oxidation, they're reduced to increase their lifetime. Most fat sources are at least partially hydrogenated to prevent them from spoiling too quickly.

Seriously though, whether it's done by nature or by mankind, the result is the same :p .

That reminds me that I have never had any friet in the Netherlands. I have been missing out!

English has got many names wrong: New Zealand, Cocoa, Hash browns ...
"Hash Browns" (called "Rösti" or "Rårakor" in civilized countries) are not made from hashish!

Chicken fried steak is generally superior to fried chicken at restaurants. However, when considering my mom's recipes for both, I might give the edge to chicken.

In terms of vegetarian foods, chile relleno is pretty good. It has cheese in it, so it's not vegan (sorry, TP4). Oh, actually, my mom's fried eggplant is freaking amazing; it tastes almost as good as the chicken, especially when gravy is applied.
Maybe they're waiting for gasmasks and latex to get sexy again.

Cheap, tenderized steak fried in the same manner as one fries a chicken  :D

It is a funny name that has caused the even funnier name of "chicken fried chicken" (the exact same thing as "fried chicken") to exist to differentiate between the two.

It's basically a Wienerschnitzel that has gravy on it.
