THE MENSCH CHEF'S ROAST CHICKEN
This is classic Jewish style roast chicken from "The Mensch Chef" cookbook by Mitchell Davis. Mensch is a Yiddish word that is defined in the book's glossary as : "a nice guy, a generous soul, me. Someone who makes a nice meal and gives you the leftovers to take home." My family's roast chicken is just like this one except we put an apple and an onion in the bird's cavity and I make a paste out of the spices with oil and rub it all over the bird. Enjoy! http://www.amazon.com/Mensch-Chef-Delicious-Jewish-Oxymoron/dp/0609807811

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Place the onion and minced garlic in the bottom of a roasting pan.
- Set the chicken, breast side up on the onions.
- Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoons of the salt, 1/4 teaspoons of the granulated garlic, 1/4 teaspoons of the black pepper and 1/4 teaspoons of the paprika on the chicken and in the cavity.
- Turn it over, breast side down, and sprinkle with the remaining spices.
- Cover the chicken with a lid or aluminum foil and set in the oven for 1 hour.
- After that hour, remove the cover and scatter the potatoes (if using) in the onions and cooking juice around the base of the chicken.
- Raise the oven temperature to 400 and continue roasting until skin begins to brown, 15-20 minutes.
- Using 2 large forks or a pair of tongs, turn chicken over so the breast is facing up and continue to roast for an additional 30 minutes, until the skin has browned and crisped.
- The potatoes should be fork tender.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for about 10 minutes before cutting up the chicken to serve.

- 1. Combine all of the brine ingredients and bring to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat and allow to cool slightly. Pour brine into a container large enough to hold both the brine and the chicken. Chill brine in the refrigerator. 2. While the brine is chilling, remove the chicken neck and innards from the cavity, if present. Using a paring knife, cut out the wishbone from the chicken—this will make it easier to carve the chicken. Submerge the chicken in the cold brine and chill in the refrigerator for 8 to 12 hours. 3. When done brining, pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Discard the brine. __[Truss the Chicken](https://www.masterclass.com/articles/how-to-truss-a-chicken-with-chef-thomas-keller)__:
- 1. Cut a piece of kitchen twine about 3 feet long. Tuck the center of the string under the pope’s nose (the small bit of meat at the top of the chicken’s tail end), then wrap around and over the ends of the legs. Cross the twine and slide under each leg to create a figure 8. Pull across and back at the same time to plump the chicken breast and bring the twine all the way around the breasts. As you press into the breast meat with your thumbs at the neck, cross each side of the string under the cut neck bone. Tie a slipknot, then bring each end of the string around a wing to close them to the body. Tie off to finish. Place chicken in a baking sheet or dish and leave uncovered in the refrigerator for two days. Doing so dries out any excess moisture from the chicken skin, allowing it to crisp beautifully during roasting. 2. After two days, remove the chicken from the refrigerator and allow to temper to room temperature for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. __Prepare the Root Vegetables__:
- 1. Cut off both ends of the rutabagas. Stand the rutabagas on end and cut away 1⁄8-inch of the tough skin, working from top to bottom. Cut into 3/4-inch wedges. 2. Repeat with the turnips, cutting the wedges to match the size of the rutabagas. Cut off the dark green leaves from the top of the leeks. Trim off and discard any darkened outer layers. Trim the root ends, cutting around them on a 45-degree angle. 3. Halve the leeks lengthwise and rinse the leeks well under warm water. Scrub the parsnips and carrots, trim, and halve lengthwise. 4. Cut the parsnips into wedges similar in size to the other vegetables to ensure even cooking. 5. Cut the onion into wedges and leave the potatoes whole. 6. Combine all the vegetables in the roasting pan and season with salt. Drizzle clarified butter or canola oil over the vegetables and mix with your hands to coat. __Roast the chicken__:
