Why you should double-fry?
If you only fry chicken one time, you're missing out on a world of crunch. Deep frying always drives out moisture, but here the lower heat allows the chicken to nearly cook through while also crisping the starchy exterior. As the starches gelatinize, the heat allows the molecules to restructure as water evaporates and creates more direct channels for evaporation. This restructuring breading reads as " crunch" to our mouths. The chicken rest for five minutes, and as it cools, moisture is drawn to the surface and continues to evaporate. This is when once- fried chicken can be soggy.
The second fry is usually around 375°F-400°F, for a shorter period of time—about two minutes.Double frying helps with that evaporation process by letting the chicken rest and cool between the dips in the oil, the new moisture that has approached the surface, and the breading during resting. When you take the chicken out after this speedy second dunk, you’re left with a thick, deeply browned crust that stays crunchy for several hours.
