TIPS FOR THE BEST RESULTS

Double or triple fry the wings. To keep the batter crisp for longer, cook the wings until 80% golden and let it drip dry in a colander. Bring the heat up to fry again until completely golden. You can repeat this for a triple fry.

Coat the wings when they’re still hot. The sauce will seep into the coating much better with a warmer temperature.

Marinate the chicken for longer. Ideally overnight, but the longer you marinate, the better because then every drop of sauce and bit of seasoning penetrates deeper into the chicken.

FAQS
