"I have a cookbook collection about a mile long, and one of my favorite activities is making new and fun recipes from these books on a regular basis. But, I also have my go-to recipes, the staples in my house, the ones that I barely need to read the recipe for because I know them backwards and forwards. One of my favorites? Roast chicken - simple, classic, and what I turn to when I need something comforting, delicious, and easy to put together."
"Putting these two recipes against one another was like having a prize fight in my kitchen, with two incredible contenders going head to head in a title bout for roast chicken glory. Martha Stewart's Perfect Roast Chicken and Julia Child's Favorite Roast Chicken, are both roast chicken masterclasses, so comparing and contrasting two recipes that are both focused on making the best possible chicken came down to a matter of inches."
An extensive cookbook collection fuels frequent recipe experiments while also coexisting with familiar go-to dishes. Roast chicken serves as a comforting, easy, and dependable favorite. Two classic roast chicken recipes from renowned culinary figures were prepared and compared. Both recipes produced exceptional results through techniques such as chopping, trussing, roasting, and basting. The comparison proved intensely close, with both approaches qualifying as masterclasses in roast chicken. Repeated preparation and tasting eventually identified a single recipe that performed slightly better, enabling a clear winner to emerge for regular inclusion in a recipe rotation.
