What goes with Chicken Skin?
Chicken skin is a thin collagen-rich covering with attached fat, rather than a miniature portion of chicken muscle. Its culinary value comes from the change between a flexible raw sheet and a brittle cooked crisp. Thickness, remaining meat and loose fat determine how evenly it renders and how readily it snaps.

Pairing principles
What pairs well with Chicken Skin?
Treat the skin as a savoury crisp with a small carrying capacity. Fresh herb fragrance, lemon zest and a thin dairy layer can articulate its roast flavour; zest supplies aroma, not the acidity of juice. Jerusalem artichoke is the sweet, earthy tuber; globe artichoke has a different bitterness and texture.
