Just Because the Recipe Says So...
Today, I finally got around to making those chicken wings. At my parent's house (weird saying that...) there is a fryolator, so deep frying is fairly easy. Not so in my apartment! So I had to use a pot filled with oil on the stove. I guessed a 6 would be about 350 degrees. Why 350 degrees? That is what the recipe said. Why 6? No idea. But the recipe said to cook them for 6 minutes, and low and behold they came out perfectly done. [Pats Self on Back]. The sauce was a bit of a disaster. It said 1:1 honey to whiskey.... nope. Too much whiskey, it was basically water instead of a sauce. Also said only two tablespoons of Sriracha. Nope. Not enough heat. I also didn't have any soy sauce, so I just added a bunch of salt and garlic. They actually weren't too bad! The grocery store only had chicken wings in 3 lb batches though, so now I've got approximately 2 lbs of chicken wings in the fridge. (first world problems) I think next time I'll try just regular wing sauce. Also it made a huge mess, there is flour everywhere and I really don't want to clean it up. For some reason my phone won't upload the pictures of the mess in the kitchen, so I guess you'll have to miss out on that.
