DME Chicken=Burn Victim

Thu Jan 18, 2007 9:20 pm

After reading the previous post regarding DME battered fried chicken I thought I'd experiment with a beer can chicken I made tonight.

It didn't quite turn out as I had expected.

I had visions of this nice shiny sweet complex glaze coating a succulently moist chicken: tender, intriguing, daring. I got something that looked like it had been coated with flour and gypsum before being exposed to an oxy-acetylene torch.

Tasted ok though.

Huh...I thought they looked like pustules.

It really didn't turn out as bad as it looks. The DME made a crust more than a glaze, and it was quite brittle. Thankfully I wasn't left with Vanilla Chicken Malted Milkshake flavor. The sweetness came through more than the malt flava.

Should have tried "late extract additions" for that.
