This is my go-to technique whenever I’m in a hurry and fancy a chicken sandwich.

heston's wife on a warm summer morning - '' what are you cooking '' heston - '' christmas dinner ''

Legends say that an inmate chose this as his last meal.. he is alive to this day

Rome was built in less time than this recipe

I wanted to make this wonderful recipe for my daughters 10th birthday party. When it was finished, she and her grandchildren said it was the best chicken they'd ever eaten. Worth the effort!

Stage one: apply for a week of leave.

Heston's wife: "Oh Heston my love, let's have a baby." Heston: "I've devised a 4 stage process..."

Legend has it...that’s he’s still cooking this chicken to this very day.

Part 2 he sends the chicken for a day at the spa.

Heston proudly announced that due to popular demand, there will be 5 parts prequel of this series covering how to make the 8% salt solution.

"Mom, I really want roast chicken as my birthday dinner!" "Fine, but what do you want this year?"

On my death bed “Can someone please change the water every 15 minutes when I’m gone”

I started making this chicken, got married, had kids and one of them is getting married tomorrow. Still only halfway through the recipe.

This recipe worked for me and my parents loved it. They were happy to finally eat it after 6 years of hard work.

I love Heston's simple 100 step meals.....

That chicken is not going reveal the enemy's position, so you may as well stop now.

10 years ago Heston was on every channel, but now you don't hear from him all that much. Guess he left the spotlight to go cook another chicken.

I am here from the future 3020 AD. We are still waiting in our time to taste this wonderful delicacy. Curiosity brought me back in time to carefully observe the preparation steps.

He is a remarkable chef. All his food including his chickens are grown and raised on his farms. He has a personal relationship with everything he eats. An hour or so before shooting this video he chose which chicken he was going to cook and made sure it wasnt stressed....apparently he talks to them to soothe them....this particular chat went something like ' oh chicken licken, we will have a fun day at the private spa today, we will start by a good exfoliation, a salt water soak, a cool rinse then a nice hot bath, followed stimulating ice plunge pool, another warm bath, another frigid plunge and finished off with a nice hot dry sauna.....
