Tips & Notes
Pro tips
- Pay attention to their breading-to-meat ratio and seasoning timing—apply salt after coating, not before, to keep the crust crisp.
- Their chicken and dumplings use a rich, flavorful broth; build depth by simmering chicken bones and aromatics low and slow before assembly.
- Watch their dumpling texture in the video—they're tender but hold shape, suggesting a balance of flour and liquid in the dough.
- Frying temperature control is key to their golden crust; use a thermometer to maintain consistent oil temp throughout cooking.
