They were aight. I used an Italian bread but something like crunchier almost would have been better I think hmm.

That looks awesome.
Any of that from the garden? The turnips?
Don't think I've ever seen those in shops over here.

I moved and the garden stayed behind. Currently working on the new hard. Do have a tomato and pepper plant though.
Also…are radish and turnips the same things??

Ooh nice. Hope new place is as good as the last (or better)!
AH my bad, somehow totally forgot radishes existed!! XD Been eating a lot of turnips here lately. They look really similar, especially sliced...
Taste-wise not so similar. Turnips are milder, sweeter, more compact. Not as juicy and all but they're good to store a long time, haven't had a radish for some ~three months now.

Such awesome texture! For a moment had me thinking of
Decided to do a little home style deep-frying over the weekend.
Never again... Place stinks, my lungs hurt, and grease splattered everywhere.
Don't get me wrong, the chicken tasted good. Soaked in buttermilk for 24 hours and a flour, creole, white pepper, msg, mustard, garlic spread mixture for 6 hours.
Maybe I went about it wrong too. What I wanted to do was get the avocado oil up to almost 500*F and start cooking, but my thermometer only goes to 400*F, so that's where I cooked at. Also gave it a quick role in the flour/spice for some extra crispiness, but all it did I think was contribute to a disgusting, burnt sludge at the bottom of the pot. Thinking I should have skipped the extra coating and cooked at a lower temp.
Definitely an outdoor cooking method for me now. I'll stick to Coq au vin, Carbonara, and steak with Bearnaise from now on.
Here's some random dumps from the past few days.

Some kind of splatterguard/wall maybe handy there?
Admittedly I haven't done a lot of deep-frying myself, and never with avocado oil, but seems that bit should be avoidable...

I fully planned on explaining it all but I always forget to take enough photos or even just a photo of the finished product. Let's see what else I got though.

Up in the 400-500 degree range you can expect more splattering as the water content of your food just gets that much hotter than your typical 350 degree fry methods. Commercial fryers have high sides, and adequate ventilation. And even with 4-6 inches of room above the oil, you could expect fryer grease to end up everywhere over the course of the night. I suppose a splatter guard would reduce this, but it's gonna splatter no matter how you slice it.
Outside is the best method for home frying. You can also try shallow frying in a deep pot.
Tonight I learned how to cook on a propane grill and the chicken slapped. Also had cauliflower mashed potatoes, rolls, a glass of wine, and a spring mix salad with walnuts and strawberries 🍓 ☺️

They were sooooo good. Haha I’ve been cooking a lot lately ☺️ Tonight was coney dogs with onions and peppers, baked beans, and Amish macaroni salad.
Christmas cookies! Shortbread cookies with white chocolate and peppermint.
(I’m no peppermint fan, but they were requested 😋) 🎄

that indeed sounds tasty, but is giving me indigestion from just reading. I'll have to stick to my pleb-tiered instant pot boiled chicken titties.
