    I'm an old school gal taught by an old school mom. Nothing beats good ole fashion flour for me! It's not just the crispy-ness. It's also the taste and your comments about how the one with corn starch tasted different sealed the deal for me! LOLOL

    I always add Cornstarch to my flour when frying chicken. Also for Chicken fried Steak. Thanks for your alternatives.

    For really pretty chicken, I season my chicken with Sazon as well as use it to season the dry flour mix or wet batter. Use Sazon con Azafran or Sazon with coriandar & Annatto.

    I use a Korean fried chicken mix you can get at H Mart or online which have a combo of flour and corn starch in it. But I add a bit more of corn starch and add extra of my own seasoning in there like chicken or beef Dasida (it’s a Korean seasoning similar to bullion). Double fry the chicken wings and VOILA. Hope this helps.

    Hey Matt! Just wanted to drop a quick note to say how much I enjoyed your latest video on finding the crispiest chicken wing method. Your thorough experimentation and honest taste test really made for an engaging watch! I appreciated how you walked us through each step, from the brining process to the homemade ranch dressing and quick buffalo sauce. And the final reveal of the potato starch method being the crispiest was both surprising and informative. Keep up the fantastic work, looking forward to your next culinary adventure!

    I mix corn starch, baking powder and flour, and some garlic salt pepper and whatever else you like. I bake mine on a wire rack 425f for 40 minutes flip and spray with pam if needed and another 15 minutes. Can't beat it. No deep fried mess, easy clean up

    I have seen several videos lately on wings -- fried, double fried (Meat Church looked very interesting and sounded really crispy), air fried, and baked -- using flour, cornstarch, baking soda, a combination of corn starch and baking soda, and probably a few other combinations. Great video though as always. Really enjoy watching your channel and learning your recipes and methods.

    Damn, we need to get 100 wings now. Do wet batter in all 3 forms, Also test the club soda in wet batter. Also go to Whole Foods and get the Hawaiian style batter
    1) flour wet batter
    2) corn starch wet batter
    3) potato starch wet batter
    4) club soda wet batter
    5) Hawaiian batter
    6) pineapple juice batter

    @Mainecoonlady. 4 місяці тому +3

    You can use any of those methods and add baking powder! BOOM. Lighter with fluffiness added to the crispy. The coating puffs up in the oil. Kind of the difference between regular and extra crispy at KFC. But honestly it’s so good you might not want to soak it in sauce. Dipping is better, but I like crispy better than spicy, so that’s a personal preference. Interesting that the cornstarch was the best though. Imagine cornstarch + baking powder. 😋

  • @jerriebrown3766

  • @1988remixx
    @1988remixx 4 місяці тому +4

    Yeah if you mix the potato starch 50/50 with APF you’ll get the same crispiness as PS but you will get the darker color.

    I always bust out laughing when people think that we mean cleaning or killing bacteria when we say "Clean/Wash Your Meat!" Anyone with sense knows you cannot kill the bacteria in meat by adding lemon/lime, salt, and or vinegar. It just adds additional flavor and helps make the meat juicy and tender and removes any residual gunk from the chicken pieces. especially when they've been processed in a meat plant or butchers shop. Youd be surprised by how much stuff is left floating in the water afterward. You definitely wouldn't want to eat that stuff.JS
