Cooking tips
- If chicken fry mix is hard to find, you can mix regular fry mix with ramen powder to achieve a similar spicy and savory flavor to commercial versions.
- Placing freshly fried chicken skin directly on paper towels will trap heat and moisture, making them soggy quickly. Always use a rack or sieve with holes to allow steam to escape, which helps maintain crispiness.
- Chicken skin is bulky and can easily lower the oil temperature. To reduce the chance of failure, cook in small batches, about 5 pieces per batch, rather than adding too much at once.
- Home induction cooktops may have weak heat that can cause the oil temperature to drop significantly during frying. It's recommended to use a portable gas stove for strong heat to maintain the optimal frying temperature.
