How about Lipton's Tomato Cup Of Soup? We used to get it in our stores, but I've not looked in a long time.

There are lots of fried chicken recipes out there, but the real trick to good juicy fried chicken is to let the pieces soak for an hour or two in buttermilk. Something about the acids or whatever in the buttermilk that makes it oh-so-good. I even do this when baking chicken pieces in the oven. Yum, yum.

I have only fried chicken once, about 30 years ago. I have been thinking of trying it again sometime.

There is a tomato boullion product that is available in a jar. I think it is made by Knorr. That might be a good substitute, but I would use less because of the salt content.

Thanks. I'll look for it.

I don't like the taste of buttermilk (except in baked goods or pancakes, etc.) and I can't stand the taste of the chicken which has been soaked in buttermilk. However, I do like sour cream. I know - that's wierd and I don't understand it either, but I wonder if I could use sour cream thinned out with a little milk for the chicken soak. The acidity should be about the same. Has anyone tried this? Did it work?

What, No flour or is flour an option?

I don't like yogurt, either, but I know that many times people use yogurt when they don't have the sour cream called for in a recipe, so I guess if it works for one thing, it should work for another, right?

I'm gonna try it - maybe just on one chicken wing as an experiment. If it works, great. If I don't like it, I won't have lost much. Thanks for the suggestion!
