    FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE IN A RUSH WHILE WATCHING THIS LIKE I WAS:
    16:47 great classic wing (twice fried method)
    9:38 crispier heavier wing (3 part breading method)
    He said these 2 methods are tied. Twice fried is classic taste, and 3 part breading is a heavier crispier wing that holds sauce better

    Wing spice for 1kg (2lbs wings) halved from the video
    1/2 Tsp Garlic powder (optional)
    1/2 Tsp Ginger (optional)
    1/2 Tsp Onion powder (optional)
    1/2 Tsp Cumin (optional)
    1/2 Tsp Paprika (optional)
    1/2 Tsp Chili powder (optional)
    1/2 Tsp Black pepper
    1 teaspoon Salt
    add 2 tsp of spice mix to 1 lb of wings and shake
    add 1 tbsp flour and shake
    make 1 lb of wings at a time in the air fryer
    with all the optional ingredients it makes a delicious dry rub, but it's a bit of a waste since it just gets covered by the sauce
    250F for 20min
    Fridge for 30min
    400F for 8 min
    or just 400F for 25minutes if you don't want to mess around
    Wing sauce:
    1/2 stick of butter
    3 tbsp sricha
    3 tbsp honey
    1/4 cup each: soy, mirin, rice vinegar
    (I added cornstarch in cold water and 2 cloves crushed garlic)
    Simmer for 5 minutes
    or a Simple Honey garlic I found:
    ½ Cup Honey
    ¼ Cup Low Sodium Soy Sauce
    1 teaspoon Sesame Oil (optional)
    1 Tablespoon Grated Ginger (optional)
    4 cloves garlic large, crushed

    Hey Mike, my 10 year old watches your channel and is a super fan. He has been wanting to make your wings for ages but he had quite a few allergies (corn & gluten) so we brainstormed and landed on an amazing crispy chicken. Tapioca starch to dredge, egg, and crushed up kettle cooked chips for breadcrumbs (we used a coffee grinder for fine and rolling pin for medium fine). Followed your suggestions and they turned out AMAZING! His heart was happy and belly was full! He wanted to make sure I shared with you ;) thank you for the channel and info he is a big fan!!

Same result, much easier, less time. It'll be my go to method going forward.

    I have had really good success brining my wings. They come out so juicy and crispy without needing any breading. Soak wings in salty water in fridge for at least an hour, pat dry, rub with seasoning and a tiny bit of olive oil so they don't stick, air fry for 15 minutes flipping at least once during cooking :)

      You do. You think "basic" means something literally anyone in the world is going to have. It's fine that you don't have it, and you're free to find alternatives, but in reality it is basic in the same way that flour, or butter, or any other basic ingredient is. It has many uses and keeps very well. He obviously uses a lot of asian influences in his cooking, so if you're into that it's a useful "basic" you should look into. If you were into indian styles and flavours, you would have a whole different set of "basics" to consider.

    I've tried all of these in grilling and smoking, and one thing you might want to know about the baking POWDER technique is that you missed three key things.
    This is what you have to do in order to get non-chemical tasting and crispy wings - though they still may not be anywhere close to a 10, because Reasons:
    1) In order to have a crispy skin, you have to coat them in the baking powder and let them rest at least 20 minutes and up to two hours before cooking them. This allows the baking powder to do the stuff it does in order to make the skin crispy. Skip this step, and you just wasted your time and baking powder;
    2) You have to use a LOT of baking powder - like a 2-1 ratio of BP to rub mix (which frankly, is the biggest turn off for me). I like dry smoked wings with maybe a little sauce on the side, so I rely on the rub for the flavor. That much baking power really limits how much rub you can get on the wings.;
    3) There are two kinds of baking powder - one has sodium aluminum phosphate, and the other doesn't.
    I would bet an entire dollar that the one you used had SAP. And while there is nothing inherently wrong with SAP for its intended use, when it is as much of a prevalent ingredient as it is in something like this, it can bring a distinct metallic or chemical flavor with it.
    When I experimented with baking powder wings, I made sure to get BP without SAP. I think I used Clabber Girl brand. Just look on the ingredient list, if it's there, that stuff is great for actually baking, but not so much for making chicken skin crispy. If it's not, you'll be good to go for crispy wings, though any seasonings will be "blanded out" a good bit.
    That said, if you like to rely on sauce for the primary flavoring of your crispy skinned wings, a properly done wing with (the right kind of) baking powder is not that hard, and practically fail-proof.

      @@E_redd Thanks!
      All those tips are out there floating around the interwebs and the RUclipsz, they just come in dribs and drabs - and sometimes you just have to run some test cases to see how they work, and how best to implement them.
      The part about the sodium aluminum phosphate came up in several videos made by people with much more refined palates than mine. I've never experienced it myself because it just kept coming up as 'no bueno', and I'm usually cooking for family as well as myself, so why take the chance.
      As for how much baking powder to use, I have tried using less than 2:1 BP to rub, but it just doesn't seem to do anything except make the chicken only slightly less bland than 33% rub, while the skin keeps coming out rubbery-ish. That said, there may be a sweet spot I haven't found though, because I only tried it a couple times and decided it wasn't worth the effort.
      The time thingy though, is just dead ass science. Baking powder has to have time to react with the skin in order to do the do, or it's useless.
      Sometimes, it's more important to know WHY you're using an ingredient, than "just because the recipe says so" kinda stuff.
      Cooking in general involves time and temp, and more often than not, those variables can be fudged one way or the other by fudging the other, but not with pre-treating chicken skin with baking powder. It's a hard and fast rule of crispy skin law, but there are other was to get that crispy skin without BP and without cooking your cut to dust.
      I'm still tuning that in right now...

      All true points. After learning how baking powder (aluminum free) changes the PH of the skin on poultry, it’s been my go-to added ingredient in all my rubs for poultry. Right now I’m am dry brining my Thanksgiving Turkey with salt and 1TBS of baking powder. Then I’ll smoke it tomorrow. It’s a fail proof way for extra crispy skin when smoking.

    I just tried your seasoning mix on some wings in my Ninja Foodi using the air fryer part. Used my homemade gluten free flour mix on the wings (rice flour, potato starch, tapioca starch, no xanthan gum in a 6:2:1 ratio). The combo gave a very tasty wing with a nice crunch. The seasoning was nice so the wings were tasty even without sauce. 390F for 15min worked fine with a max of 8-9 wings in the basket. I did have to spray with a bit of cooking spray as I found the first batch had some floury bits on the top so just sprayed the other batches with spray first. Best wings I've made at home outside of cooking them on the BBQ.

    Outstanding vid. I ended up making your flour only version @7:33 (I'm just too lazy for"Twice Fried" version). I followed my manufacturer's instructions which called preheating (3 mins) then cooking at 390°. Which at 15 min.'s was just perfect, and extraordinarily crispy. I think your advice about splitting the wings was brilliant and likely the main reason for my success. I wish more cooking demos were approached this way. THANKS.

  • @jamesk1619
    @jamesk1619 3 года назад +8

    When cutting the wings, I find it easiest to lay the knife blade closer to one side depending on the joint you're cutting. Between the tip and the flat, I angle the blade closer to the flat. Between the flat and the drumette, I angle it closer to the drummet.. The cuts are a lot easier and you can get through several dozens of wings in a few mins this way.

    I usually just break down and dry rub my wings (just the seasoning, no extra coating for anything, no oil) the night before, leave in the fridge overnight uncovered to dry the skin. Toss them in the air fryer at 400 for 15 and they're super crispy without any extra stuff.

    You never tried it naked with the seasoning. I do equal parts of Taijin and Greek Seasoning. Toss the wings in the seasoning till they are covered. Then place them in my air fryer at 400 for 12 mins and then turn them and do an additional 12 mins. I got an old Paula Deen air fryer, I do not believe its as good as yours. Then last, I toss them in BWW's Sweet Chili Sauce. It's decent, not as crispy like I can get in the my small convection oven but not as smoky. LOL But I would like to see you try wings "naked" to see your results.

    Also, par boiling works great for the frozen wings, like if you buy a big bag of frozen wings I put them in the pressure cooker for 7 minutes to get all that solution out and to cook the meat, fridge it then fry it
