Description

https://www.youtube.com/@LeonCarterr?sub_confirmation=1 Most people season the flour. Most people get the grease hot. Most people have been frying chicken their whole life. And most people don't know why it never sounds like that when they break it open. Leon Carter grew up watching his grandmother fry chicken without ever measuring a single thing. She didn't write it down. But he was there — and he paid attention. In this video, Leon breaks down the 7 things the old cooks did between the seasoning and the skillet that most people have stopped doing entirely. These aren't complicated techniques. They don't require special equipment. They require slowing down for the parts of cooking most people decided weren't worth their time. The old folks slowed down for all of it. That's why you still remember how their chicken tasted. ⬇️ Drop a comment: What's one thing the person who taught you to fry chicken always made sure you did? 🔔 Subscribe for more old-school cooking wisdom — the real reasons, the old ways, the knowledge that didn't always make it into a recipe. #FriedChicken #SoulFood #SouthernCooking #OldSchoolCooking #LeonCarter #GrandmaRecipes #HomeCooking #CrispyFriedChicken #CookingTips #GenerationalWisdom #SoulFoodCooking #SouthernFood #BlackAmericanCooking #ComfortFood #CastIronCooking
