I've found that sprinkling the wings with sea salt before going in the fridge is a great way to dry brine the wings and add another level of flavorful juiciness.
@@christopherlasseter6317 yeah gets it crispier faster since it's more alkaline and baking powder is isn't as concentrated as baking soda so it's easier to use without any added taste.
Love Frank's recipes. I wanted wings today so i skipped the overnight drying. Just had to cook them for a little longer, they were still crispy and delicious if anyone's impatient like me. They're delicious without the sauce too, i did half plain and half with the sauce. Cheers
I have a fast food restaurant here in my country Peru. I came to this channel because the chef seems interested in the way he explains things! thank you!
Chef Frank, today was my day off, last night I prepped the wings, dried in fridge overnight, fried this afternoon. The only other way I am going to make them going forward is to grill them, but your method wins hands down. Promise to try your wing sauce recipe next time. Today, Sweet Baby Ray's Buffalo Wing Sauce got em' done!
What a great video. Straight to the point, no fluff. What every YT video should be. Wing sauce comes out very authentic too although I did use Frank's hot sauce 'cause it's what I had!! Sorry Frank!
... You used Franks sauce and that's why it was authentic !!! He used something else and should find a different name to call his chicken wings...because their NOT authentic Buffalo Wings!!!!
I think his premise to the ketchup is to cut the heat of the hot sauce. Some ppl like the flavor but the heat is too much; especially if you're going to eat more than a few wings lol.
@@macycharmin. ... If your making the REAL ORIGINAL buffalo wings the "heat" is controlled by the Franks sauce to butter ratio!! Less heat...more butter, less sauce. More heat...use more sauce and less butter .... Very simple!!!
Also make sure you all maintain your fridges regularly: a fridge with heat exchange coils burdened by dust or otherwise inefficiently operational does not need more moisture dumped into it’s compartment by the wings you’re trying to dry out the dry, chilled air will take the moisture outta the chicken skin and condense it onto the defrost coils, which may or may not be up to task depending on how well maintained your fridge hardware is
@@Echoballs-gt8zz most fridges have them underneath, or sometimes behind; there are plenty of guides on youtube for fridge maintenance in addition to your fridge’s manual, but the best way is use a battery-powered leaf blower after taking off like the plastic panels/grates that shield the under carriage, securing what components might fly off, then blowing all the collected dust etc into an air filter or better yet outside
@@hellfish2309 ohhh . Also question about the hot sauce in video will it be a big deal if I use franks hot sauce instead of the hot sauce used in the video? Can’t find them in stores with out having to buy them online
I’ve never tried the sauce the way Frank makes it, but it seems interesting. For my Buffalo wings, I use Frank’s Original Red Hot Sauce, butter, lemon juice (just a little), and a sprinkle of dried oregano. Maybe I’ll do a side-by-side comparison next time I make wings 😁
@@stackmaster2851 Yeah, garlic is great in it! Whenever I do that, I sautee it first with the oregano and make a compound butter with it. It adds to the prep time, usually gotta do it a couple hours in advance, but I promise it’s worth it. Plus, then you have a garlic & oregano compound butter for other stuff 😉
Frank, by far the BEST and useful detailed information that makes the perfect wing. Definitely using your method next time I make this. But, darn one day is a tough wait. LOL. Well worth the weight. I do duck and turkey same method of drying open in the fridge. Thanks for another great recipe.
Lot of interesting tips here, drying really is the key here. If you toss them in baking soda before putting them in the fridge, you can cook all of them in the oven and still get that crispiness all over
I'm a Chef myself and I agree with everything he just said except for seasoning. I like to put my spices NOT salt on when I dry the wings then again after saucing, I used to season straight out of the oil but found the sauce washes it away so I like to put mine on AFTER tossing with sauce. Personally I find the flavors to pop more and since you put the spices on the wings beforehand it cooks into the meat while toasting up perfectly.
What kind of oil is being used? And why do you prefer that one? I know they have different smoke points but also flavoring which can affect the results, so was curious as your go-to for wings.
All the yes!!! Unfortunately, I'm in Canada and I think our national supply of Crystal was used in this video. 🤣🤣 Oh well, I'll have to go back to NOLA!
I do half stick of butter, Texas Pete hot sauce and I mix in jalapeño and purée. Then I toss them in the sauce. The sauce will turn yellow but awesome.
They look amazing. This is how I make my hot wings except I use my deep fryer and instead of using hot sauce and butter to make my sauce like I used to I just started buying Buffalo Wild Wings Mango Habanero, Asian Zing, Thai Curry, Spicy Garlic, and Nashville Hot Sauce until around 3-4 months ago when I bought Hooter's 3 Mile Island Sauce and fell in love with it. For the last 3-4 months I haven't used anything except 3 Mile Island Sauce. It is so delicious.
Made these today and they were awesome. Was a bit sceptical about not breading them, but they do taste better just fried. Over here in the UK wings aren’t quite the staple in restaurants that they are in the US but these tasted better than any I’ve had over here.🇬🇧
I think he’s got one on his personal RUclips channel.. also look for the levels chicken wing video on Epicurious’s channel, I thing he participated in that one
mines 1 cup crumbly bleu, 3/4 sour cream, 1/2 mayo, 1tbs dijion, tbs lemon juice or apple cider vinegar , 1/4 tsp salt,pepper and garlic powder. instructions basically to preference you can add it altogether, let marinade please at least a few hours! Way better, add only half the bleu cheese and blend it all using a food processor or hand held, then add the rest as bigger chunks again let sit a few hours Only one of my friends prefers a more mayo versions so i flipped the mayo and sour cream amounts, she loved it, everyone else hated it but whatever ya like! Remember, not all ingridients are created equal, the mayo, sour cream, dijion come in mayo standards so adjust to taste.
Frank is an absolute legend. Love you people in the comments come on saying “lost me at ketchup” or “add seasoning”. This guy knows more about food and cooking than 99% of us. If you cook something differently that’s also fine btw 😊
@@laqueenawilliams4762 fair enough. But if someone needs to know the oil temp to make chicken wings then you maybe need a more cooking for beginners recipe
@@MemphisMike901... He didn't throw them away, he saved them to add to a soup stock recipe!! BTW.... Tips are not included in original buffalo wings!!!!
I get the feeling that Epicurious just wanted to show us how to make the wings, but if this had been on Frank's channel, he would have made homemade blue cheese dressing.
Best simple blue cheese recipe is equal parts sour cream and mayo a little wash your sister sauce, salt, pepper, and blue cheese crumbles. Whisk it all together and you have some tastey Blue Cheese.
@@Echoballs-gt8zz sorry for the late reply but if you want to see if your oil is ready to fry, just take a small piece of chicken or whatever you are frying and throw it in the oil. Based on the way it reacts you’ll be able to tell how hot the oil is
Browning adds flavor. Cook the wings past golden brown especially if they are to be sauced. Golden brown means slimy chicken. I see this problem everywhere with many fried foods. Golden brown is undercooked.
100%, the two most important parts of this is properly drying the chicken, and maintaining the proper cooking temp. This applies to pretty much any fried product. You could do everything else correct, but if your chicken isn't properly prepared, and you don't know what temp you're cooking on, you're going to have a bad time. source: I was a failure at cooking fried chicken for 30 years until I discovered these two ancient techniques.
@@Echoballs-gt8zz It depends on what type of oil you're using, each act differently at different temperatures. I would recommend using vegetable oil for chicken. To answer your question, you won't know with any accuracy if your oil is at 375. In your situation, I would preheat the oil at about medium high (3 o'clock if you understand the reference). Then you want to test it with drops of water. You don't want the reaction to be violent, that means it's too hot, you don't want it to have no reaction either, that means it's too slow. It takes practice, but it can be done.
I had a theory that they let it sit in the fridge to dry and this confirms it 😄now I will try to do so next time I make wings to get that restaurant quality crispy skin
Hi, Frank this is my first time watching how to make buffalo wings I learned if you taste better and Crispier your oil is fresh and your wings are fresh however everybody adds ingredients but the wings are fresh and the oil then taste will be awesome thanks.
2 things - What kind of container was used to fry the chicken wings in and what is done with the oil after use? What kind of oil is being used? Do you filter and reuse it for another time?
Hello, I'm very new to cooking. Was wondering what to do with the excess leftover oil after you're finished frying the wings? I read that you can dispose of it after it's cooled, but that's so much oil that needs to be disposed of.
Great video Epicurious. Great techniques and execution Chef Proto. I love buffalo wings. I'm always looking to make and taste "the best buffalo wings"(Louisiana Hot Sauce, 1/4 tsp cayenne pep & a huge scoop of chopped garlic)
Do your wing research bruh . This a “buffalo” style wing , not a battered fried wing . Seasoning the wing burns way easier and quicker . Essentially the sauce is the seasoning with this style .
Forrealz, people are off! Seasoning it doesn’t mean hella salt! There’s nothing wrong with marination! Plus, ~ I don’t think butter in the sauce is the slap! lol
Can we possibly get 1 or 2 of the production staff (rotation) to come in front of the camera and try the product the chef's cook as an unbiased opinion? It would add a bit more depth. Cheers (And metric subtitles for the rest of the world)
Interesting method for frying. I wonder what Frank would say about my method of boiling (I meant simmering) the wings for 10 minutes and then broiling them to get the crispy skin texture.
Reuse your oil unless someone is allergic to something you've cooked in there previously (fish, shrimp, etc). Time to throw it out once the oil starts getting dark.
Please don’t add ketchup to your sauce mix. Use honey, it does the same thing cutting the heat, adding a little sweetness but not overpowering the sauce with tomato flavor which can be jarring. I like to mix in blue cheese or ranch when the sauce cools before tossing, really layers the flavor of the wings
I've found that sprinkling the wings with sea salt before going in the fridge is a great way to dry brine the wings and add another level of flavorful juiciness.
Dry brining is great for steak too. It helps them to tenderize.
A little baking powder and a tiny bit of sugar too!
@@HiResDezreally? The flavor of baking soda doesn’t get in the wing? Do you find it better than just salt?
@@christopherlasseter6317 yeah gets it crispier faster since it's more alkaline and baking powder is isn't as concentrated as baking soda so it's easier to use without any added taste.
1tsp per lb of wings of each kosher salt and baking powder before the overnight dry out
Love Frank's recipes.

They're delicious without the sauce too, i did half plain and half with the sauce.

yup! I love dipping plain wings into multiple sauces as well, the more the merrier!
Did u season yours? My guy didn't
Yeah, the restaurants don't let the chicken dry overnight.
That would be a nightmare for a Wing restaurant.
@@Lee-yy2lr do you need to coat them if you don’t have time to dry out over night

If you coat the wings with a little corn starch before frying it makes them even crispier.

Ketchup? Wings sauce in buffalo: butter, franks, white vinegar. I make them constantly.

surprised he didnt wanna dry brine
They would be too salty
Frank chooses the flats first… he’s my hero!
This guy seriously put ketchup on his buffalo wing sauce instead of honey.
Honey...
What type of oil are you using?
Crystals packed with salt, ketchup packed with salt, salt added to sauce, salt added directly to cooked wings.
You’ve never seen Chef Frank cool before have you?
in a time pinch, could you put the cut wings in an oven on lowest settings to dry them out?
Please don’t add ketchup to your sauce mix. Use honey, it does the same thing cutting the heat, adding a little sweetness but not overpowering the sauce with tomato flavor which can be jarring. I like to mix in blue cheese or ranch when the sauce cools before tossing, really layers the flavor of the wings
In my opinion, you are spot on!
Okay frank! Lol , great video! Thank you 💓💕
