After that 90 mins, flip out dough onto a lightly floured work surface. Divide dough into six 100g pieces. Fold and shape each of the 6 pieces as shown @2:58. Place on a sheet tray lined with a piece of oiled parchment, cover, and proof at room temp for 45-60 min.

2qt/2ltr of neutral oil (depending on size of your pot. canola or another oil that's flavorless with a high smoke point)
Season thighs on both sides with salt and allow to cure in the fridge for 2 hours.
To mix the breading, combine the 280g ap flour, salt, pepper, garlic pow, onion pow, baking soda, paprika & cayenne and wisk to combine. Add about 1/4 cup of buttermilk to the breading mixture and stir to combine. Place your additional cup of buttermilk and cup of flour in containers to prepare your dredging station.
To dredge, place each piece of chicken into plain ap flour, then dip into the buttermilk, then dip into the breading mixture, making sure each piece is very well coated. Shake off the pieces just a bit, then place back on the sheet tray to prepare for frying.
Preheat oil in a large heavy bottomed pot over medium heat to 350F/175C. Carefully add in chicken thighs to oil (no more than 2-4 at a time). Cook for about 6 minutes until deeply golden brown.
