Super Crisp Country Fried Chicken
{mom}
1 frying chicken cut up
1/2 cup milk
1 egg
1 cup flour
2 tsp. garlic salt
1 tsp. paprika
1/4 tsp. poultry seasoning
1 tsp. pepper
For extra spicy chicken increase poultry seasoning to 1/2 tsp. and black pepper to 2 tsp.
Blend milk and egg. Combine flour and seasonings in plastic bag. Shake chicken in flour. Dip chicken in milk/egg mixture. Shake chicken a second time in seasoning mixture to coat thoroughly. Melt crisco to about 1/2-1 inch thick deep and heat to 365. Brown chicken on all sides. Reduce heat to 275 and cook until tender 30-40 minutes {turning it over so the middle isn't pink). Do not cover. Drain on paper towel.

My mom is the best cook I know...
My mom loves to cook. It's what she does best. She loves searching for new recipes just to see what it tastes like {and to find the very best}. Growing up--mom was contantly baking cookies, canning food from our garden, baking bread and homemade salsa, and filling our home with sweet aromas {that I loved}. And now that I'm all grown up and out of the house, I still enjoy going home to see what she's made for us to eat! The purpose of this blog, is to record our family's favorite recipes...and to preserve them for our posterity. I want them to know that cooking is important to us. That it's getting lost in this busy-fast paced and convenient world. I want my family to build talents and abilities that only cooking can bring. So I hope this cookbook will help. Bon Appetit.
