First, it needs to be cut up. Also, we need to put off all the extra parts. Meanwhile, we need to prepare some water. Pure, a bit sweet and amazingly fresh. This is a privilege of living among the mountain streams. Washing the meat in salty water kills the dangerous bacteria. It's about the safety, but it also reduces the strong fresh meat smell that no one likes. While we were rolling the meat into foil for it to keep all the juice, the oven was ready. This beautiful landscapes and sunny weather are perfect occasion for drinking some tea. We prepare traditional samovar that helps water to stay warm for a long time. With a wood, we made a construction for our future KFC-style leg. Can you guess how it works? Write in the comments and then check if you were right. One the best season's gifts are fresh, juicy berries. Sweet aroma is mixing with a smell of herbs and creating real summer mood. This is nothing better than cup of berries tea and some sweets. This is not weird to drink hot tea at summer in Azerbaijan. Other way, it's a big life hack. Hot tea aligns body temperature and you feel better for longer time than when you drink iced tea. And now it's time to look if fire did its job. Fire is an amazing thing. It can hurt you if you're not careful, but it can help you to cook and to warm up if you can do everything right. Just look at this appetizing meat. But sure, that's not all. We all know KFC by the crisp and spices and that is what we need to do now. Crusty breading starts with starch or flour. What is more appropriate to you? And this is how the construction works. Check out if you guessed it right. Meanwhile, we spray the leg with water. And now we repeat it with a few coats of starch and water. And the last coat is breadcrumbs. It will add the crustiness and keep all the juice. Rustic life is about adore every minute and romanticize your life. Duties with no gadgets and respecting traditions. This is what living in harmony with nature means in modern life. The hardest part is coming. We need to pour the meat with hot oil. The leg is that big that we had no kitchenware to put it inside. Want to watch more content about rural life in Azerbaijan?

When it's no more feathers on the chicken, we can start to work with it. First, it needs a little cleansing. Meat needs to be cur very careful. It about two philosophies at the same time. First is respecting the food. Second is about no waste. But both is about village life. When nature and human are being in harmony. Every move must be fast but careful.

It looks so bright and appetizing. And it's so nice to realize you grow it up by your own. Hard work can give you amazing results. In childhood, I hated carrots. And my grandma always convinced me to eat it because it's good for my eyes. Now I am smiling while remember it and eat carrots with pleasure. Good work needs a good rest. So while one of us finish working with veges, the other one prepares samovar to have a cup of aromatic Azerbaijani tea. We took this big glass jars for our dish. Black pepper and bay leaf are going first. Second layer was meat and then the vegetables. They look so beautiful with contrasting bright colors.

Someone hit a bit to hear the sound, but the best way is looking at the side to see a big circle spot. If it's yellow, it's ripe. The chicken is finally ready and we have just to open the jar.
