Yes Mrs. Leah!! Everything in moderation! These two women lived to be in their mid 90s!! Such a blessing!! R.I.P. Mrs. Leah and Mrs. Julia!!

Mother Leah Chase was a legend in New Orleans. A woman of great spirit, faith, and food.

Mrs. Leah and Mrs. Julia giving us all something that no one can take away. A recipe like this is like inheriting a treasure.

Rest In Peace, Mrs. Chase. June. 2019.

Me as well. Learned something.

Two absolute legends. There is nothing better than watching a demonstration of an awesome recipe. Since this was done years ago when very few people of color had this opportunity and this is so genuine. Often times real cooks won’t share ingredients or techniques. This show gave Ms Chase a platform to really reach different audience types. Phenomenal!

Love both of them

Two of my favorite girls. Forever in paradise and in our hearts.

2 of my all time favorite chiefs Miss Leah, and Miss Julia. One other fact is watching both of these fine women they never once screamed, shout, or talked down to people. Gordon Ramsay should take notes.

I remember watching this on PBS as kid back in the day, Miss Leah can Cook!!

2 legends! RIP Leah Chase

Absolutely love seeing Julia and Leah together. They seem to really enjoy talking with each other, sharing New Orleans culture; and julia is actually learning something from Ms. Leah. I need to step my game on making homemade biscuits. Ms Leah makes it look so easy.

Wow she handled that bird like a boss😳❤️

Leah Chase is the lady who Disney modeled the character Tiana, from the Princess and the Frog. I recommend anyone look for other videos in which she speaks about her exciting.

I remember Miss Leah saying racism, bigotry is learned behavior as is good manners.Lee Circle should be renamed Leah Blvd.

This is by far the best video on KZread. A close second is "a people's history of breakfast, lunch, and dinner".

Love Leah!! What a great pair Leah and Julia!

I am truly blessed to have come by this video. THANK YOU!❤

I learned to cut up chicken when I was 12. My mom taught me. 9 parts to a chicken cut up. But u can cut extra pieces from the back or breast.🐣🐔🐣

I Met Leah Chase in New Orleans at Dookies. Amazing woman.

I’ve watched this so much, I’m starting to know the words. Haha. Every viewing feels like the first viewing.

In love both of these women. They taught me a lot about cooking and serving delicious food. May both of my cooking Angels rest in Heaven.

Thankfully the Queen of Creole Cuisine, Leah Chase is still with us. - R.I.P. Julia

Rip Julia and Leah you were among the best.

Used to love watching Julia!!!!! She used to be on either GPB or PBS channels when I was growing up. I loved watching her & all the cooking shows,especially on Saturdays

Those of you that have found this video are extremely lucky, this show has vanished from the web, and the exact recipe is nowhere on PBS, so memorize it now cuz if they take this down thats it, Leah Chase recipe for the ultimate fried chicken will be gone

Rip Leah!!! She really paved the way for many in the culinary arts and she was just a sweetie pie!! Wow two legends gone but never forgotten.

So sad to watch that Ma'am Julia passed away many years already. she's already old in this episode, and this was year 1993 .. love to watch these two grandmas cooking. ♥

I'm Southern and I don't know how to fry chicken (properly) my chicken is what we call "Pretty Chicken". Chicken that's beautifully browned yet when you bite into it it's...RAW. This video will help me!

+Demenyaca M I had a tough time at first too. The key to this is not to have the heat too high, but not too low. You want it on a medium or med-high heat depending on your stove ro pan. Also, if you have a cast iron frying pan it cooks it perfectly. I only cook chicken in cast iron, because it holds heat so well. If you use cast iron, I wouldn't put your stove over med heat because the pan will get to hot. lower the temp a little below med if you need too and if your oil is smoking it's too hot. it should sizzle (roll) but it shouldn't smoke.

+Demenyaca M Had this same problem. Next time you go to the store, get one of those cooking thermometer's that clip on the side of the pan. Make sure the oil covers close to half way b/c just the tip won't give you an accurat measurement. My chicken comes out perfect now. Also, paprika and buttermilk darken the crust. You may think it's burning but it's just the color or in the case of the buttermilk, the sugars in the milk browning.

When the chicken is nice and golden put it in the oven for 20-25 min make sure to use a baking rack so the heat goes all around. Turn the oven on to 350.

Kabu Graham Now you know if she cooks it in the oven like you say she will never learn how to proper cook the fried chicken in the pan to doneness AND have it look pretty!

Why is my mouth watering looking at this fried chicken with steak in front of me???😮🤣🤣🤣

Sometimes my mama used to give us hot biscuits with fried fat back. They were sooooo delicious.

Legends

Yes, she brought back memories biscuits and Log Cabin Cane Syrup

Yummm!😋

Classic

My number 3 bucket list is to meet her in person and take a picture with her.

For me, trial and error has proved that there is nothing wrong with starting in the oil and finishing in the oven with 3 steps in prep: clean well, cut off excess skin/ fat; brine in buttermilk and salt (hot sauce optional) overnight; drain, then rub with spices, let sit 3 hours in fridge, then let come to room temp at least 30 minutes, coat well in seasoned flour to a muddy coating, let sit until flour permeates; then re-coat, THEN fry at 350 degree shallow oil in pan in non-crowded batches. I've made many a batch of chicken in all levels of oil in pan or pot, but it always comes out the outer is burned, the inner is under-cooked. Ive learned: 5 minutes in uncrowded pan with one flip and then 25 minutes on a rack in 375 oven to 165-ish with instant read thermometer: perfect golden, juicy, crispy, complete. Not soggy, not greasy. Pateint steps makes the best Fried chicken. TO me, it cannot be done in one day. Then again, I'm a white northern boy.

Watching Leah Chase cut up a chicken is like watching Picasso paint

or maybe just buy one of Leah Chase's many recipe books

Julia "Finger food" 😂😂😂😂😂

this is why i dont like watching cooking videos it makes me hungry but damn that friedchicken sure looks good!

Wow this episode was back in April 1995 26 years ago

I haven't watched this clip yet, but I recall Leah emphatically stating you must use "Lard" for the best deep frying. OK, now I'll watch it. Yup, I watched it. I remember being a bit horrified at that recommendation when I was watching it when it originally aired, but, I now know better! It's the vegetable oil that is the unhealthy fat!!! Do not eat vegetable oil. Saturated animal fats are a healthy choice. Always deep fry with lard (not the hydrogenated Armor crap though!) Save bacon fat and use that to deep fry and you won't have to worry about "moderation" either as long as you keep carbs and sugar out of the meal.

Mama cut the H__! outta that chicken!! It was so quick, I had to rewind. Thats what happens when you know what you're doing!!
