    I tried the Japanese style, Karaage the other night, and it was a HUGE hit! People telling me it's some of the best chicken they've ever had! To make the chicken extra crispy I double fried the chicken. Will definitely use this one again!

    I was fully onboard until that sauce. A whole bunch of NOPE for me. I use buttermilk + lemon + S&P + Garlic/Onion Powder + Smoked Paprika and dredge overnight. Then into the flour – S&P, Paprika, Garlic/Onion Powder.

    In Hawaii, there is a variation called garlic chicken. The fried chicken is tossed with a garlic, soy sauce, honey, etc(many variations, but garlic and soy sauce is the base).

    When I worked at Kentucky Fried Chicken, the way they prepared the batter was different to the way Guga does it in this video. First, they coat the chicken pieces in unseasoned flour; second, they coat the chicken in a mix of powdered egg and powdered buttermilk; lastly, they coat the chicken in flour containing the secret herbs and spices. Now, I'm not saying that this method is better than Guga's, as a matter of fact, I suspect that putting the secret herbs and spices on first is a better way of doing it and using fresh buttermilk rather than powdered would make the batter more fluffy for a better result. The method I described above was how we did it in the Australian Kentucky Fried Chicken and it was many years ago, before they changed it to KFC (though the Aussie stores have gone back to Kentucky Fried Chicken, probably because now people realise that frying, especially deep-frying, isn't what makes you fat, it's the carbs in all the sides that does that).

    In terms of browning, flour Browns more naturally, and one of the reason is because once flour is wet, mixed with some water, it develops gluten, and gluten, just like in baking whether for bread or pizza, naturally Browns more easier, whereas natural starches such as potatoes and corn don't contain gluten.

    That white stuff might be acrylimide( described as a white odorless solid), possible cause for concern that it is associated with illnesses. Maybe it would be a good video to delve into, send it to a lab? 11:15

    I am Japanese and often buy or make Japanese karaage. The difference between Japanese karaage and fried chicken is that typical karaage is seasoned in the meat itself and coated thinly with batter. The batter itself is not flavored or seasoned with spices. The karaage in this video has a slightly thicker coating compared to typical Japanese karaage.
    However, for Americans, it may be more appealing to have the batter seasoned to their taste.
