I thought I'd ask two separate questions in one thread. I'm not making chocolate chicken.
First question. Chocolate recipes often say use unsweetened cocoa powder. I've got two tins of tesco own cocoa powder, one's a year fresher than the other. They don't say sweetened or unsweetened. On the nutrition facts, it says per 100g there's 0.5g sugar (says 0.9 on my other older tin for some reason), and both tins say there's 0.1g per teaspoon. Putting some on my finger from both tins and tasting, there's absolutely zero sweetness. So I'll assume this would this be classed as unsweetened?
Second question. I'm following a seasoning recipe for chicken drumsticks and thighs. I followed him for his cottage pie recipe so I know he's good on flavour. He uses black pepper, paprika, salt, small amount of cayenne pepper, little bit of mild curry powder and some plain flour. He also uses a half teaspoon of chicken seasoning. He throws it all into a bag and then throws the chicken pieces in the bag and shakes. Then he melts butter in a foil covered roasting tin, puts the seasoned chicken in and cooks for half an hour or so on 220c.
But chicken seasoning just seems to have some of the same ingredients. I don't have chicken seasoning but I do have Italian seasoning. Would that be just as good?
