I've recently got a taste for wings. But not wings as we know them in most uk places. Ask for a starter of wings in most uk bars and a microwaved platter of rubbery wings doused in a BBQ sauce will land in front of you. Now if you cross the Atlantic they have whole restaurants and bars dedicated to wings.
The difference? Wings in America are a passion, seasoned to perfection, deep fired and then tossed in a sauce of your choice from a choice of 100s. They are then served with a blue cheese dip, celery and carrot sticks. The result? A crunchy, not too greasy flavoursome snack that works a treat with a beer. Let's just forget about the health connotations for a second....
So, arming myself with a portion of wings and a bottle of Frank's buffalo wing sauce I am going to get my wing on. However, there is one missing ingredient at our house; we don't have a deep fat fried. Or any sort of frying device. The plan is to marinade and then grill them for a nice crisp skin.
Anyone have any wing recipes they would like to share? Or any tried and tested wing methods that work without frying?
