I couldn't believe the chain I'd spent years raving about let me down. I made Ina Garten's 11-hour fried chicken. It was shockingly mess-free, and my family loved it.

Coating croutons in tomato paste also gives them ... she was told by the waiter that they're made out of hamburger buns deep ...

Make the croutons: Set a large frying pan over medium heat and pour in enough oil to reach ¼ inch (about ½ cup). Once oil is hot, add bread and fry croutons until golden all over, about 2 minutes.
