1. the easiest way is to get a bag of the frozen wing sections. Defrost and wash them. Season with a little seasoned salt, pepper and garlic powder. Fry them until done and browned. Then toss them around in a mixture of hot sauce ( Franks Louisiana ) and melted butter. Remove to a serving plate. Serve them with blue cheese dip and celery sticks if you like.
2. Why would you need to wash them? I soak them in hot sauce ( Tabasco or Frank's, whatever ) about an hour. Then I dredge in 2/3 flour 1/3 cornstarch and fry in 375 deg. oil. Crispy, spicy but not too hot for the sissy's.
3. I agree why would you wash them? There is no need to wash any meats, the water splatters a bit and there fore can spread bacteria all over and you don't even realize it. Here is my hot wing recipe as well as 2 other sauces for soemthing different. Do the honey soy ones with some rice, use intant rice and you can't get any simpler. When making wings I like to bake them first then fry them. Cut the tips off then cut at the next joint. Bake at 350 for about 20-30 minutes or until they are done. You can add them to the sauce of your choice now or fry them for about 2-3 minutes to get them real nice and crispy, drain the toss in your sauce. ****Or instead of frying them you can stick then under the broiler for about 5 or so minutes or until they are golden brown. The reason I like to bake mine first because then I can keep some in the fridge and/or freezer and then just drop them in hot oil to warm and crisp up. To make hot sauce. Here in the US there is a brand that is pretty common to start with. It is Franks Red Hot, doctor it up a bit and you end with with a good sauce. Here is how I doctor mine up. 1 big bottle franks 1/2 cup butter 1-2 tablespoons itailian seasoning 1-2 cloves grated garlic-optional Heat in sauce pan. I like to cool mine to about room temp then put it in food processor until it cools a little more. This makes it combine better for reheating. This also keeps well in an air tight conatiner in the fridge. --------------- Rhubarb B-B-Q---I understand not everyone has rhubarb on hand but this is good for future wings or what ever. Ingredients: 1 heaping cup chopped fresh or frozen rhubarb 2/3 cup water 1 medium onion, finely chopped 1 teaspoon canola oil 1 garlic clove, minced 3/4 cup ketchup 1/2 cup packed brown sugar 1/2 cup dark corn syrup 2 tablespoons cider vinegar 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 1 1/2 teaspoons hot pepper sauce 1/4 teaspoon salt In a small saucepan, bring rhubarb and water to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5-6 minutes or until tender. Remove from the heat; cool slightly. Place rhubarb in a blender or food processor; cover and process until smooth. Set aside. In the same saucepan, saute onion in oil until tender. Add garlic; saute 1 minute longer. Add the remaining ingredients. Whisk in rhubarb puree until blended. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Use as a basting sauce for grilled meats. Store in the refrigerator. Yield: 2-1/3 cups. Or This is my Absolute Favorite for WIngs: Honey Soy Sauce: 1/2 cup butter 1 cup honey 1 cup soy sauce 1 cup terriyaki sauce 1 tbsp seseme oil 1 tsp fresh grated ginger Heat in a sauce pan until melted and combined. Keep unused portion in the fridge in an airtight container. Heat a little for each use.
