Buttermilk-Brined Chicken Drumsticks – No Guilt, Just Pure Indulgence
Guilty pleasures in food. We find the concept troubling. Our firm belief at Swaledale is that one shouldn’t feel guilty about indulging in gluttony - especially when it involves properly sourced, high-welfare meat. The guilt usually stems from eating something considered ‘dirty,’ ‘fatty,’ or ‘hyper-processed’ - more often than not, fast food. But in our opinion, if it feels good, do it (fans of Peep Show will appreciate this reference).
There’s also the secondary layer of guilt - the knowledge that fast food chains are often sourcing pretty terrible meat. But fear not, because at Swaledale, we source exceptional meat that nobody needs to feel guilty about. And we’re offering you the chance to indulge in one of the world’s greatest fast foods - fried chicken!
Our chicken drumsticks are brined in buttermilk, salt, pepper, and oregano, which seasons the meat while tenderising it and helping it retain moisture during cooking. We’re also sending you a bag of seasoned gluten-free flour, blended with a carefully chosen mix of spices, ready for dredging. Once well-coated, excess flour shaken off, they go straight into the deep fryer, a pan of oil, or an air fryer - whichever method you prefer. You’ll know they’re done when they’re crisp, golden, and totally seductive.
We recommend serving with a bright, fresh slaw and a side of wild garlic mayonnaise. A fun family meal, full of deep, satisfying flavour, and not an ounce of guilt in sight.
