There are many flavors of fried chicken, including spicy, crispy, five-spice, and even sweet. It’s hard to choose between different flavors. Personally, I think spicy fried chicken is more delicious.
In the West, the cooking method of breading and frying can be traced back to the fried dough in the Middle Ages.
The earliest breaded fried chicken was made by the Scots, but the fried chicken at that time was not seasoned.
After the 19th century, black people in the southern United States combined the Scottish breaded fried chicken technique with West African seasoning techniques to create southern-style fried chicken in the United States, which has been passed down to this day.
Before key technologies such as industrial chicken raising and disinfection and pest control were developed, the chicken industry was extremely vulnerable to pests and diseases. People generally only ate chicken dishes, including fried chicken, on special occasions, such as holiday banquets.
After World War II, with the development of the industrialized chicken industry, the price of fried chicken has been falling along with the price of chicken, and now it has become a daily dish for people.
In China, the technique of frying food has been recorded in "Qi Min Yao Shu" as early as the Southern and Northern Dynasties.
"Suiyuan Food List" records how to eat "raw chicken". Mix the small chicken pieces with soy sauce and wine, and fry them before eating.
This marinating and frying technique was introduced to Japan in the Edo period, and was combined with Japan's improved Western-style batter-frying technique, that is, the Japanese "tempura" technique, to become the Japanese "karayang" fried chicken.
Extended information: Note: Fried foods such as fried chicken are not easy to digest, especially for patients with a history of gastric cancer.
Therefore, on this basis, combining it with alcohol will intensify its irritation to the stomach. In severe cases, it will damage the gastric mucosa, causing gastric ulcers and even enteritis.
In nutrient theory, chicken and beer are both high-calorie foods.
Frequently eating fried chicken and drinking beer can easily cause excess calories, which can accumulate in the body and lead to obesity.
There are 32kcal in 100ml of beer, and 110kcal in a 350ml can of beer. 100g of fried chicken has 300kcal, and 1 fried chicken has about 200g. Calculated in this way, it is equivalent to the calories of a dinner.
At the same time, beer will hinder the metabolism of purine substances in the body and lead to the onset of gout.
For gout patients or people with hyperuricemia, the harm to the body is even greater.
