Chef's Notes
Always use a wire rack for cooling. Placing a freshly fried cutlet directly on a plate traps steam and ruins that glorious crispiness we worked so hard for.
Pro Tip
Press the panko firmly onto the egg-coated pork with the palm of your hand to ensure the breading doesn't fall off during the swim in the hot oil.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Dropping a frozen, wet pork chop straight into boiling oil, resulting in a miniature domestic volcano and a fire department visit.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
Why did the pork chop go to the casino? Because it wanted to get a little batter!
The Culinary Science
The Maillard reaction between the amino acids and reducing sugars in the breadcrumbs and pork protein is entirely responsible for that deeply savory flavor and golden-brown hue.
