Not seen the baking soda treatment -  helps with crisping? I simply want your soup - cold here - well considering Los Angeles

Apologies for tardy reply @heidih
The baking POWDER, according to google:
"Baking powder is alkaline. It raises the skin's pH, breaking down the proteins more efficiently and making for browner, crispier results. Simultaneously, the baking powder combines with the bird's natural juices, creating carbon dioxide."
I was skeptical at first, but it works!
