想给那个特别的人留下深刻的印象吗?渴望有一点安慰?需要一个美味的周日晚餐,让整个家庭感到高兴吗?有一个完美的答案:烤鸡。与此相比,它不会变得更简单或更好。
当涉及烤鸡时,细节将伟大与普通分开。注意这四个简单的建议,为您制作的最好的烤鸡。
总是从最好的鸟开始
3至3-1/2磅,您不会出错。犹太洁食的鸡肉。这些天,它们几乎到处都很容易找到。空气味可产生极度嫩的肉和浓缩鸡肉味。
即使很难找到,蓝脚的鸡肉或Poulet Bleu还是我最喜欢的烤鸟之一。肉非常嫩,风味很大。最初来自加拿大的Poulet Bleu直到最近才在美国找到。对我们来说幸运的是,现在在加利福尼亚饲养了一群蓝脚的鸡。
我喜欢的另一个烘焙师是Jidori Chicken,这是一种家用混合品种,以其强大的风味而可持续地提高和珍贵。这些无激素和无抗生素的鸟类被喂食全谷物饮食,从未被冷冻。
Although they can be a bit pricey, these specialty chicken breeds offer clear differences in flavor, and I urge you to seek them out to find the one you prefer, even if you decide to save it for a special occasion.
Layer on honest, craveable seasonings
这里的每种食谱都涉及我最喜欢的香料Herb-Deggie组合。他们拥有甜,咸和草药的正确平衡,以补充嫩嫩多汁的烤鸡。每个食谱还提供了烤多汁的嫩鸡所需的所有细节。毕竟,如果没有正确煮熟的肉,什么好味道是什么好风味?
让鸟休息两次
Allowing the chicken to sit, salted or in a spice rub that includes salt, for at least 20 minutes before cooking is an important step on the path to perfect roasting. This first rest gives the salt time to absorb into the chicken, tenderizing the meat while drying out the skin so that it can crisp delightfully in the oven.
第二次休息发生在您从烤箱中取出它后,也应持续至少20分钟。在此期间,果汁在整个肉类中重新分配,而不是最终放在您的雕刻板上。
带箔的帐篷
最后但并非最不重要的一点是,如果在烤箱中太褐色,请记住用箔纸来修理鸡肉。燃烧皮肤会破坏成品鸟的美学和风味。对我来说,烤鸡是一种通道的烹饪仪式。每个厨师都应该知道该怎么做,并且做得很好。

Yummy yummy!
对于那些找不到重量不到4磅的鸡的人,搬到缅因州或马萨诸塞州(我无法为NH,VT,CT,RI回答)!我们在超市和屠夫商店里有大量,其中大多数giblets都包裹在里面。
Whatever happened to those 3 lb. birds? That's what I grew up on, but haven't seen one in YEARS! I guess now they feed these poor, abused creatures all kinds of laboratory-manufactured feed to get their weight up so they can sell them for more per pound. Surely, they cannot even stand up, let alone peck in the dirt or run around, under all that super-imposed weight. I can remember when plucked chickens used to be yellow, but now they are a sad, anemic white. I'm no PETA person, but I shudder to think of the miserable lives these chickens must live in order to provide food for us. And you know what? It doesn't have to be that way! Animals that give their lives to feed us should only know ONE BAD DAY. Please check out Change.org and lend your support to organizations demanding the humane treatment of the animals that feed us. BTW, we can learn a LOT from the original possessors of this land, the Native Americans, who said a prayer of "thanks" over every animal that gave its life so that we might eat and live. Back to the land, people.
