There are many on snd offline articles describing the tenderizing effects of soaking chicken overnight in dairy.  Lactic acid etc. What sort of evidence are you looking for?

 

 

Yes there are. And it's said as though its a proven thing.

Is it better than mayonnaise or cream?

I think is just an accepted tradition like searing seals in juices. You still hear this from big name cooks who ought to know better.

The sort of evidence I'm looking for is more than everybody's aunt saying that is how to do it.

 

 

I'm thinking its just tradition.

A lot like the ones that describe searing as sealing in juices.

 

I'm thinking its just tradition.
