Guidelines:

Get the chicken ready:

• Combine the cayenne pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt in a big bowl. Use this spice mixture to season the chicken pieces.
• Make sure every piece of chicken is coated by covering it with buttermilk. For optimal flavor, cover and refrigerate for a minimum of two hours, or overnight.

Prepare the batter:

• Mix the flour, baking powder, paprika, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper in a different bowl. Blend thoroughly.

Apply Coat to Chicken:

• Take the chicken out of the buttermilk and let any extra run off. To guarantee an equal coating, lightly press each piece after dredging it in the flour mixture. Toss away any extra flour.

Warm up the oil:

• Heat approximately 1 inch of oil in a big, heavy skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). A tiny piece of bread dropped into the oil should sizzle and brown rapidly, allowing you to test the oil.

Deep-fry the chicken.

• Not not overcrowd the pan, add the chicken pieces to the heated oil with caution. Fry in small batches as required. Depending on the size of the pieces, grill the chicken for 10 to 15 minutes on each side, or until it is cooked through and golden brown (the internal temperature should reach 165°F, or 74°C).

After draining, serve:

• After cooking, move the chicken to a plate covered with paper towels to remove any leftover oil. Before serving, let it a few minutes to rest.

Advice:

• You can double-dip the chicken before frying it to provide an added crunch: first, dip it into the buttermilk, and then again into the flour.
• While frying, adding spices to the oil, such as a fresh rosemary sprig or garlic cloves, can provide more flavor.

Cinnamon Sugar Quick Bread

https://technicalaia.com/cinnamon-sugar-quick-bread/

Guidelines:

Step 1: Make the yeast active

• To prepare the yeast, put the warm water, yeast, and 1 tablespoon of sugar in a small basin. When the mixture starts to foam and bubble, it means the yeast is active. Gently stir and let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes.

Step 2: Get the Dough Ready

• Combine the Dry Ingredients: In a sizable mixing basin, blend together the tapioca flour, gluten-free flour, salt, and the remaining sugar.
• Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat together the oil, honey (if desired), apple cider vinegar, and three eggs.
• Add Yeast Mixture: Stir the wet ingredients into the dry flour mixture along with the activated yeast mixture. Using a wooden spoon or the stand mixer’s paddle attachment, mix the dough until it becomes thick and smooth. The dough shouldn’t be unduly moist, just a little sticky. To get the desired consistency, if necessary, add a tablespoon at a time’s worth of additional gluten-free flour.

Let the Dough Rise in Step Three

• Cover and Rise: Place a clean kitchen towel or piece of plastic wrap over the dough, and allow it to rise in a warm location for approximately one hour, or until it has doubled in size.

Shape the Challah in Step Four.

• Set the Oven’s Temperature to 350°F (175°C). Use parchment paper to line a baking sheet.
• Divide the dough into three equal halves, or more if you wish to create a more elaborate braid. Make lengthy ropes out of each piece and braid them together. To facilitate shape, lightly grease your hands if the dough is excessively sticky.
• Place on Baking Sheet: Gently slide the braided dough onto the baking sheet that has been ready.

Step 5: Bake after using the egg wash

• Egg Wash: To give the braided challah a gorgeous golden shine, brush the top with the egg yolk wash. If desired, top with poppy or sesame seeds.
• Bake: Bake the challah for 25 to 30 minutes, or until it sounds hollow when tapped and has a golden brown top.
• Chill: Prior to slicing and serving, allow the challah to cool on a wire rack.

Advice:

• Gluten-Free Flour: To help bind the dough, make sure the gluten-free flour blend you use contains guar or xanthan gum. If it’s missing from your flour blend, mix in 1 teaspoon of xanthan gum with the dry ingredients.
• Egg-Free Option: To make this recipe without eggs, use a flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed combined with 3 tablespoons water per egg) in place of the eggs, and omit the egg wash in favor of a non-dairy milk wash.
• Storage: While fresh challah is optimal, it can be kept for two to three days in an airtight container or frozen for up to a month.
