## Instructions

1. Place chicken thighs in a bowl and cover with buttermilk. Add pickle juice, hot sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne, paprika, MSG, sea salt and pepper. Mix, cover and refrigerate overnight.
2. Chop 7-10 scotch bonnet chilies, 2 sweet peppers, and 4 garlic cloves. Place in a mason jar and cover with 3% salt brine. Let ferment for 10 days, opening daily to release gas.
3. After 10 days, drain the fermented peppers and blend them with a few spoons of the brine, a chopped mango, a splash of apple cider vinegar, mirin, lime juice, and lots of olive oil. Strain the mixture.
4. Cook the strained mixture in a saucepan over medium heat for 3-4 minutes. Add Worcestershire sauce, honey, MSG, and butter. Stir to emulsify and season to taste. Finish with chives.
5. One hour before cooking, remove the chicken from the fridge. In a bowl, mix 50g each of rice flour and all-purpose flour with garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne, paprika, salt, and pepper.
6. Add a spoonful of brine to the flour mixture and mix. Dredge each chicken thigh in the flour mixture, pressing and coating thoroughly, then shake off excess flour.
7. Fry the chicken in preheated neutral oil at around 350°F until golden and crisp. Remove and let it rest for 4 minutes.
8. Toast the brioche buns in butter.
9. For the ranch, mix together crème fraîche, Kewpie mayo, buttermilk, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, grated garlic, dill, parsley, chives, salt, pepper, and honey. Adjust seasoning as needed.
10. Place the cooked chicken in a bowl and toss with the buffalo sauce.
11. Assemble the burger: brioche bun, ranch dressing, dill pickles, buffalo chicken, and more ranch dressing on top.
