How to get all the chemicals out of chicken

As the Zen channel “Smile and Try” reports, the first thing you need to do is cut the skin off the chicken.

It is also necessary to get rid of the entrails, if there are any.

Then everything depends on the cooking method. If you need to boil chicken, then simply drain the first two broths after boiling.

If you plan to bake or fry the chicken, you need to soak it for two to three hours in a solution of salt and citric acid (two tablespoons of salt and a teaspoon of citric acid per liter of water).

Use warm water so that the salt and citric acid dissolve completely. The meat should be completely covered with water.

After two to three hours, drain the water and rinse the chicken.
