Roasting Chicken
To roast chicken perfectly, Chef Daniel Boulud says you should mix about 1/2 cup of sugar, 1/2 cup of honey, and 3/4 cup of salt in one gallon of water which you will boil, and then let it come back to room temperature. Soak the whole chicken in the mixture, cover and put in the fridge for 18 hours. Then, put the chicken on a roasting rack and let it dry in the fridge, uncovered, for around 12 hours. When the chicken is dry, add the spices, and then put it in the oven that has been preheated to 425°F. Roast the skin for 15 minutes, and then cook the chicken at 350°F for around 20 minutes.

Cooking Potato Chips
Getting potato chips right is actually not that easy! First, cut your potatoes about 1/8 inch thick to get good crispy chips. In a large bowl, cover the potatoes with cold water to rinse. Next, drain and add 6 cups of water and half a cup of white vinegar, which will make them crispy! Soak the potatoes for half an hour to 2 hours, and then drain and dry. In a medium-sized pot, pour about 4 inches of oil and heat to 300°. Fry the potato chips and turn them regularly for about 5 minutes or until they are crispy golden and brown. Season the chips to your liking!
