My Review:
My first instinct when I received this book in the mail so to start looking at it right away....BIG mistake! I was hungry at the time and this book with the pictures along with the recipes are so mouth watering and wanted to make all of it, right now. There is no way to put into words the magnitude of goodness that drips from the pages of the yummy looking recipes that line each page. If you want to learn how to make fried chicken or make yours better or would just like a change from the ordinary, this is the book for you.
The authors didn't leave you hanging, either they even included some great sounding side dishes to go along with that chicken. The authors also take you on the science trip behind what makes the best fried chicken. The pan you choose and how to cut up a whole chicken complete with pictures is also shown. These recipes are taken from restaurants and roadside diners throughout the nation, so you may even find a few of your favorites.
**Disclosure** This book was sent to me free of charge for my honest review from Blogging For Books.
