Why do fried chicken legs need flour

Wrap the chicken leg with flour, and the skin outside the fried chicken leg will be crisp. If you don't wrap flour on the chicken leg, the skin on the fried chicken leg will be very hard and taste bad, so wrap flour to improve the taste of the fried chicken leg. Because there is a layer of skin on the outside of the chicken leg, if you don't wrap it with flour, you can fry it directly in the pot. The fried skin is crisp and hard, so you should wrap it with flour to make the outside skin more crisp and the chicken leg meat more tender.

First, prepare the chicken leg to be fried, wash it, then cut several holes with a knife, put it in a bowl, add cooking wine and salt, and stir the fried chicken powder, which can not only remove the fishy smell of the chicken leg, but also make the chicken leg taste.

When wrapping the chicken leg with flour, you should pay attention not to wrap the chicken leg directly with dry flour, but to add starch and egg white into the flour, mix and stir, wrap it on the chicken leg and fry it, so that the skin outside the chicken leg will be crisp.
