WING ESSENTIALS: HONEY HOT CRISPY WINGS

Steps:

• PREP/PREPARE
• Chef's Note: My first goal was to figure out a way to crisp the skin of the chicken wings, so I turned to my old friend, baking powder. Baking powder and salt will draw moisture out of whatever they are applied to. The common method was to coat the wings in baking soda and salt, and then let them sit in the fridge overnight. The two problems with that method is: I didn't want to wait that long, and when they were baked and sauced, my testers said they tasted WAY too salty. I solved the problem by mixing all-purpose flour with the baking powder, and using just a pinch of salt. As to the overnight stay in the fridge, I solved that using a two-step cooking process.
• THE WINGS
• Gather your Ingredients (mise en place).
• Place a rack in the middle position, and preheat the oven to 250f (120c).
• Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl.
• Thoroughly dry off the chicken wings, and add to a large bowl.
• Sprinkle the dry ingredients on top of the chicken, and toss to combine.
• Lay the chicken wings on a parchment-lined baking sheet, fitted with a rack.
• Chef's Tip: Make sure you give them some space.
• Place in the preheated oven and slow bake for 30 minutes.
• After thirty minutes, increase the temperature to 430f (220c), and continue to bake until they are nice and brown, about 35 - 45 minutes.
• Chef's Note: The low-and-slow baking begins to cook the wings, and will give the baking powder and salt a chance to do their thing of drawing moisture out of the skin. The final blast of heat will finish cooking the wings, and make the skin nice and crispy.
• THE SAUCE
• Chef's Note: While the wings are happily baking away, make the sauce.
• Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
• Add all the ingredients into a small saucepan.
• Place the pan over medium heat, and bring up to a simmer.
• Allow the sauce to lightly simmer while the wings are baking.
• Chef's Note: Occasionally stir the sauce, and do not let it get to the boil, or it will burn.
• THE ASSEMBLY
• Remove wings from the oven and place into a large bowl.
• Toss with two or three tablespoons of the sauce.
• Chef's Note: I don't want these wings dripping in sauce, I want just enough to coat them.
• PLATE/PRESENT
• Plate the wings, sprinkle on some toasted sesame seeds, and serve with the additional sauce. Enjoy.
• Keep the faith, and keep cooking.

HONEY HOT WINGS

Steps:

• 1. Take your wings and thaw them out in water for about 10 minutes. Pat them dry so there is no excess water.
• 2. Heat your deep fryer to 375 degrees. If your's doesn't go quite that high adjust your cooking time up a couple minutes. Make sure you watch them though.
• 3. Add 1 cup of floor and a teaspoon of pepper into a bowl.
• 4. Dredge each wing in floor and shake off excess flour.
• 5. Drop wings into fryer and set timer for 13 minutes.
• 6. Mix together 1/2 cup Frank's Red Hot Sauce, 1/3 cup melted butter, 1 table spoon honey, and 1 teaspoon of black pepper in a sauce pan on low.
• 7. (Optional) add a little Cornstarch powder to thicken sauce to likening. Careful and only add a little each time and mix. Too much will be clumpy.
• 8. Once wings are cooked put them on a plate with a paper towel to collect excess oil.
• 9. Pour sauce in a large bowl that you preferably have a lid for or you can use a plate. Put your wings in the bowl with the sauce. Shake the wings until coated well.
• 10. Ready to Eat!
• The sauce could work for a couple dozen of wings if you want to make more. You could add red chili flakes if you want them hotter. If you are cooking with a batch larger then a dozen consider that in your cooking time, and perhaps let them cook a little longer if you want them crispy.
