Not sure if you do requests, but my daughter and I started watching your youtube channel during lockdown(covid in the UK). Her favorite was the ice cream sandwich from Steven universe. Thank you for the easy version😅 Clara is now 4 years old and desperate for some fish biscuits from octonuats. She asked if Babish makes them.😁 I told her I would ask. Thanks for everything you do, it's great and we love it!
I like the steamed then baked method. A gentle steam gets them cooked especially the skin. Then cooled till needed later (or second step immediatly). Then they can be blasted in a very hot oven (or fried) to crisp the skin. No need for baking soda or salting or overnight drying.
That sounds great. But I'm lazy, so I just chuck them in the oven, and eat them with rice and a nice asian sauce with soy sauce, garlic, ginger, chili (all grated with a microplane), and rice vinegar
the gochujang sauce is genius because it's almost like a master sauce in korea. jeyukbokkeum (stir fried pork) and dakkalbi (stir fried chicken) both use a variation of this sauce and it's absolutely delicious!
Babish, i've been watching your videos since you first started out and it's incredible how far you've come. I have used countless numbers of your recipes and hope to continue to do so. congrats on your success, it is well deserved!
You know, I just realized watching this how FAR this channel has come. I started watching your stuff around the time the "Best Sandwich in the World" video came about. Overall you've rekindled a lifelong love of cooking and the craft of it, and I just wanted to let y'all know that. Thanks so much for all of it.
I air fry wings. As for seasoning: if I'm just putting dry seasoning on, I just toss them in a steel bowl, if I'm putting BBQ sauce on I grab my wok, put it on high, and toss the wings and sauce in at the same time and toss them around till they're evenly coated and the sauce has caramelized.
I air fry my wings too. But I usually just season them with smoked paprika, cilantro powder, black pepper, grated garlic, and salt. Its almost impossible to make bad wings on an air fryer lol, but after years of trying, seasoning them with these is a staple for sure.
I've been doing a combination of the oven method and the air fryer. Usually, even following his instructions for oven wings, they don't come out very crispy at all. Tossing them in the air fryer for 10-ish minutes finishes them off perfectly.
Absolutely amazing. If anyone wants to take it to the next level, follow his oven recipe. After you take them out of the oven at 250, throw them on a HOT charcoal grill with offset heat, throw a chunk of wood over the coals and they will be perfectly crispy, tender, and smoky. I've never had better wings.
If you keep the melted butter and sauce separated, you can roll the wings in the hot butter, then in the cooler sauce. Even a water-thin hot sauce will adhere to the wing every single time. I always tell people this method because I never see anyone talk about it on recipes.
2:55 oven method is probably the one I'm going to try today. I do have the deep frying parts, but the cleanup seems worse, I'd have to buy more oil, and I want to test the crisping in the oven anyway. However 1:55 has critical prep that should not be ignored. We're goin in. 😎👍
NOTE: When you're doing the baking method. MAKE SURE to buy aluminum-free baking powder. The aluminum gives a weird bitter taste to the wings. I tried the same recipe one with and one without and the ones that had aluminum were inedible.
@@shelbyf3529 it seems the ones that are aluminum free say so, from what i can tell, as long as it doesnt have a clear "aluminum" element or compound in it, it's aluminum free. rumford and clabber girl (the 2 most common) seem to have aluminum in them edit: additionally most, if not all, double acting baking powder has aluminum in it, specifically sodium aluminum phosphate, as thats what gives it the "double acting" properties
Word of caution: Don't use wire brushes to clean barbeques. The wires do come out and can wreak havoc in the body. There are plenty of safer alternatives out there.
Air Fried wings are some of the best wings I've ever had. They skin is crispy, the meat is tender and juicy, they're amazing! Kinda surprise to not see them mentioned at all! But I guess most people don't have an air fryer(you totally should btw)
My favorite method is Kenji’s double fried even though it’s rather time consuming and doesn’t work with large number of guests. Would certainly try a Korean sauce
Try this: Get Frank's Wing Sauce (not the normal Red Hot), use it as a marinade for a few hours, then grill the wings. The sauce works as a brine then caramelizes. You won't go back to drowning your wings in wet Frank's, I promise.
The best way to Grilling wings is toss dried wings in 1/2 of your favorite seasoning 1/2 corn starch, tiny whisked to combine, set aside for minimum 30 minutes, then grill, the seasoning/cornstarch creates this amazingly crunchy outside that can soak up sauce the with out falling apart
Actually used your wing trick and it worked really well. I did salt and baking powder and baked at 450 for 45 minutes. Then I tossed my wings and clarified butter and everything bagel seasoning. They were still crispy.
DO NOT DEEP FRY IN A SHALLOW, OVERFILLED PAN OVER AN OPEN FLAME like you see Babish doing. It's a wonder he hasn't been seriously burned or worse with a set-up like that. Make sure the level of the oil is at least 2-3 inches or more below the rim of the pan. Or better yet, get a dedicated deep-fryer unit with built-in safety features, like thermostats, electric heating, and an insulated-handle fryer basket. At least he isn't deep-frying with the handle sticking out from the stove... this time. Babish here says deep frying at home is 'scary.' But it doesn't have to be, if you do it right.
A lot of restaurants in Buffalo do their wings very different ways. Sometimes that used to cooking methods in a row in order to get a certain flavor. A common one is smoke then fry.
I'm surprised it wasn't mentioned but i highly recommend air frying almost fool proof and much quicker than an oven or grill i eat wings almost everyday out of it.
You can also fry them. Preferably in lard or tallow.. cause it’s much healthier than hydrogenated oils. Then put them into the oven at basically as high as you can get it for a few minutes to make them crispy. If they’re frozen at the start then boil the them, then fry them, then put them in oven lol
My wife used to brag about her grandfather's unique wing sauce recipe that she has never had anywhere else. I eventually got a written copy of the recipe. Franks hot sauce and butter, aka, buffalo sauce.
Babish, thanks for the buffalo sauce recipe. I’m looking for one all summer. Also, the oven cooked wing variant is going to be a lifesaver for those of us who don’t like frying.
Ask someone who worked in kitchens doing large batches you still have to watch the temperature. If you can wait a few between batches that is best. Definitely had to put things back in because they weren’t done before
@babish - if you put the wings on the rack, & then put the rack on top of a broiling pan, they won’t smoke up the kitchen when cooked in the oven. Figured that out when trying your Lemon Pepper Wet method from Atlanta.
While this is amazing to know, and I have personally been seasoning/flavoring my own chicken for years, but local grocer has a full service meat department where all spices/sauces are free. AKA plain wings and any of the dozen or so pre-seasoned wings are all the same price... it's nice. I can even pick out my own roast and tell them what spices I want, and they just do it.
whole wings are the best! the tips are extra tasty. its fine if the tips are overcooked. the best wings are whole IMO. you arent eating it for the meat, it is a chicken flavour and sauce delivery vehicle.
y'know I never understood the 'Bab sounds like Jon Benjamin' thing, he really doesn't. but maybe it's the fact that Bob, Archer, and Coach McGuirk would all totally appreciate being sponsored by fancy gin.
The only think I drink from Islay is Whisky Also those whole wings look huge, the ones you get here in Scotland arewnt nearly as big and its so much easier to toss them in seasoned flour , drizzle with beg oil and shove in the oven lol
I would love to see you do the funky fritters from scooby doo. There's a lot of food from scooby doo you can do, but these are a spicy hot fritter, That needs its own soda just to calm your mouth and your stomach.
I live about an hour and a half west of Buffalo on the western tip of Lake Ontario, and my dad was once mistaken for being from Buffalo while on a business trip!

Just to let you know I think he already made an episode on it before
YESSSS! I loved octonauts as a child and this would be awesome!
My kids would also flip for an Octonauts Fish Biscuits recipe. They love both Octonauts and Babish’s channel. 😊

An air fryer is just a small convection oven
@@kpatterson14206 Even more air circulation and direct heat in the air fryer vs convection oven

Tried the Botanist in Jamaica and I’m in love. So smooth, so delicious. Thanks, Babish!
The bitter Irony is, I made 40 wings in the fryer yesterday and this video would’ve saved me making all the mistakes I made 🙃
Super happy for this episode my toddler is a huge fan of wings. Perfect timing for grilling for the 4th
If you keep the melted butter and sauce separated, you can roll the wings in the hot butter, then in the cooler sauce. Even a water-thin hot sauce will adhere to the wing every single time. I always tell people this method because I never see anyone talk about it on recipes.
wings single handedly gave me a use for my air fryer, its perfect to double fry, 20 minutes at 200 degrees, chill, then 400 degrees till crisp
2:55 oven method is probably the one I'm going to try today. I do have the deep frying parts, but the cleanup seems worse, I'd have to buy more oil, and I want to test the crisping in the oven anyway. However 1:55 has critical prep that should not be ignored.
We're goin in. 😎👍
I've been using your double fry method since that video came out. I can't see any other method being better. We are actually making those tonight!
NOTE: When you're doing the baking method. MAKE SURE to buy aluminum-free baking powder. The aluminum gives a weird bitter taste to the wings. I tried the same recipe one with and one without and the ones that had aluminum were inedible.
Why tf there even aluminium in the baking powder
Was it double acting or something?
How do you know its aluminum free? Does it say clearly on the packaging?
@@shelbyf3529 it seems the ones that are aluminum free say so, from what i can tell, as long as it doesnt have a clear "aluminum" element or compound in it, it's aluminum free. rumford and clabber girl (the 2 most common) seem to have aluminum in them

@@shelbyf3529 I used rumford. It is double acting and doesn't have aluminum in any of the ingredients.
@@sencha__ given that you spelled aluminium correct: i guess that's an weird american thing again, like with their weird colours and hormones
Word of caution: Don't use wire brushes to clean barbeques. The wires do come out and can wreak havoc in the body. There are plenty of safer alternatives out there.
I'm glad someone else mentioned this! The wires left on the grill can easily get stuck in the meat.
A potato cut side down or and onion the same way if you like that flavor! (You cannot taste the potato, 😉)
@@jrzgrl73what? Do you mean using a potato to clean the grill?
@@RamblinWom4nthey do
I've done the baking method with dried out wings. If you set your oven at 350 they still crisp up but your oven doesn't smoke.
Happy medium I've found for smaller batches of wings: they're GREAT in the air fryer and take less time than the oven
The end result is WAY better than the oven. You can do wings for 2 in less than 20 minutes.
Air Fried wings are some of the best wings I've ever had. They skin is crispy, the meat is tender and juicy, they're amazing!
Kinda surprise to not see them mentioned at all! But I guess most people don't have an air fryer(you totally should btw)
I feel like I haven’t seen you in so long. Every video is Alvin, whom I love, but dang I missed this patented Babish feel ❤
i agree.
I got my tonsils out a week ago and for some reason I have started watching every food related video I see even though I can’t eat
Red hot ketchup white vinegar lemon juice and butter together is the best wing sauce
Chicken wing episodes will always be my favorite
I said it before and I'll say is again. Chicken wings are the best bar food/ game day foods ever to be invested
I absolutely love the spiciness of gochujang. It is just the right amount.
My favorite method is Kenji’s double fried even though it’s rather time consuming and doesn’t work with large number of guests. Would certainly try a Korean sauce
imho, kenji's double fry works iff you do all of the first round of frying ahead of time. though it's still time consuming.
@@JJJohnsyou did not just use the shorthand for if and only if XD
So what you’re saying in the first half is to just buy an at home deep fryer so to make it safe and that’s the best way to do it.
Love you videos man!!!! Watching your videos help me get threw my rough part of drinking to much😢 I happy to say I am sober now! Keep killing it.

I bake my wings first, then fry them for about 3 minutes at high in the deep fryer for that nice crispy crunch and moist interior.
toss them in baking powder first for extra crispy skin.

I do the same thing but I deep fry after the first oven trip. I do 325 for 15.
Great, now I want to make wings for breakfast 🤤
Andrew: Remember this is a batch recipe--
Me: Single serving, understood.
I love air frying my wings now, though it gets just as smoky as oven baking for me.
The Botanist gin is _very_ herbaceous. If you're into making herbaceous cocktails, it's great, but straight up, it's pretty intense.
been doing the low to high double bake for years best method by far.

Its funny, I was just thinking the other day that we haven't seen Babish make Buffalo sauce yet. Impeccable timing.
No way I got a babish ad for the Botanist before skipping and the video starting with a babish ad for the Botanist
Personal favorite; add a teaspoon or two of yellow curry powder to the salt/baking powder mix when you dry brine.

And a long way with 10m subs. I remember watching you for your cartoon food recreations a couple years back. Stay going
Baking soda AND corn starch is how you get them crispy Babby
