What is National Chicken And Waffles Day?
On October 20th, Savory and sweet collide for a soulful celebration of flavor as we commemorate National Chicken and Waffles Day. Imagine a world in which every spice and spirit's ingredients make their way into the honeycombs of thick and crispy waffles. Well, the day has come..
#chickenandwafflesday
This quintessential meal of the rural south from LA to NYC brought a slow migration to the urban areas to the north and west, from LA to NYC. But, as strange as it seems, chicken and waffles have been around for more than 150 years. Although no one knows who first brought chicken and waffles together on a plate, we do know that the dish was a staple of both African-American cooks and the Pennsylvania Dutch. Any time of the day, anyone can enjoy Chicken and Waffles as part of the supper.
In addition, the meal offers up some hearty dishes. Our only limitation is our imaginations. Our imaginations are the only limit. Not only does #ChickenAndWafflesDay bring together two food groups, but it also unites others. For example, friends and families, communities, and organizations, as well as multiple generations. For example, many generations.
