Re: Fried chicken.
Puerto Ricans love their fried chicken. I always loved going to houses and seeing a frying pan with oil already in it sitting on the stove. Nearly everyone had one.

It’s funny, the grandma in law never made fried chicken. Probably cause it was too big a crowd.Kingcarl24 wrote:Puerto Ricans love their fried chicken. I always loved going to houses and seeing a frying pan with oil already in it sitting on the stove. Nearly everyone had one.
She made some GLORIOUS black beans, and arroz con gandules.

I was at the farmers market last year and the lady had fresh gandules. When I IDd them, she looked me up and down.
My wife is on a quest to match Nana’s arroz con gandules. She’s gotten pretty close.

Fried in lard in an old-fashioned cast-iron skillet; I have very early memories of standing on my tiptoes to try to look in the pan, but only making it to eye-level with the blue flame of the gas stove burner.
Damn, I miss that lady.
My grandmother is 85 but she still fries chicken in the same cast iron skillet from my childhood. She still uses lard.

I seriously think you need to be a Puerto Rican to make it correctly. The best time to be in Puerto Rican is during the Christmas season. The food is amazing. Everyone starts cooking lechon (roasted pig) so the whole island smells of it. The best is when you'd find someone who was just finish cooking theirs and they're more than happy then to cut you off a big chunk right there on the street. Melts in your mouth.

Re: Fried chicken.
Sounds like there's a lot of overlap between Puerto Rican food and Filipino food. I'll straight tear up some lechon.

Re: Fried chicken.
In Puerto Rico, there's a big difference between habichuelas and gandules. Habichuelas and frijoles are the same thing except they never use frijoles. According to them, that's what dirty Mexicans call it.elartman1973 wrote:habichuelas...I grew up calling them frijoles...habichuelas isn't used in Cuban Spanish muchShill Jackson wrote:1/2 spic (as the father in law calls himself) 1/2 British.

We have the lechon.....Puerto Rico stole that and Bacardi from Cubans...and the daiquiri..
Cuban mojo(garlic, olive oil, sour orange and oregano) is used to marinate the pig the night before we cook it in la caja China....the pellejo(skin) is crispy and amazing...the meat sweet as fuck and tender fall off the bone....our meal every Xmas with black beans and rice...and yuca which I hate...and fried sweet plantains....
Lol at turkey and ham American families eat for their holidays...lame as fuck

Arroz con habichuellas doesn't sound as natural as arroz con frijoles
