PS I like french fries ❤️
Long live the Irish!!

And much to my surprise, Medscape recently published and republished an article about potatoes, healthfulness, and lowering A1C, etc. Shocked me. Truly.

Admittedly, frying hash browns and french fries, home fries, anything fries, detracts from the positive nutritional value of the potato and adds oil(s).

But they're -so- GOOD!!

From lunch, 3 bread rolls with different kinds of fish. It is from a fast food chain called NORDSEE.

Anyone have a good recipe, tried and proven, for taking raw 'party wings' in bulk, preferrably with no actual breading, per se', and making crispy wings for dipping or bathing in sauce?

Going to be making our own sauce as well, and getting away from the packaged toxic shit, as we often do with other sauces. So anyt leads on that would be welcome, too.

Making our own 'party wings' soon, and the frozern, ready-to-bake store-bought wings are (1) too expensive anymore for what you get, and, (2), the dipping sauce included in the frozen 'party wings' is completely unhealthy, packed full of bullshit, and included at the same per lb. price as the actual chicken.

Costco has cryo-packs of frozen raw wing bits being sold as 'party wings' for all of $2.99/lb., and I figure it's time to crimp the budget a bit to pay back the money we just spent on a new snowmobile (YIKES!!!), which is largely taking the place of often-worthless medical treatment.

How about a teriyaki sauce - it´s really easy to make and only requires a couple of basic ingredients :)

For the sauce I was thinking maybe some Erythritol/Stevia, a touch of molasses, water, corn starch, tomato paste, chili powder, garlic, and maybe a touch of powdered yellow mustard for a spicy barbecue that keeps the carbs at bay.

It's more the chicken and how they get it to crisp up on the outside with no breading that has me wondering.
I'm assuming they brine it a bit, perhaps in a sugar and salt brine (?), but I don't know.

I may turn to my unfriends at Google. We'll see.

Thanks.

Seems too simple. Maybe that was my trouble; looking for something more complex, like the first time I seived hash. Less magic than anticipated.

Never had Hooters wings. Never even been in a Hooters, though I remember when all the scuttle-butt was about their scantily clad buxom waitresses back in the day.

Chicken is a lesser evil for cancer. It's still a meat protein, but it's not a class II carcinogen like red meat, to include beef, pork, lamb, or goat. Or like a cured sausage, hotdog, or lunchmeat that are class I carcinogens.

Fish is best, if eating meat, if not for the heavy metals. But poultry, especially minimally 'chemicalized' (organic, no hormones or antibiotics) is best.

Been throwing caution to the wind a bit lately. Quality-of-life compromises. :)

we cooked goose legs once for x-mas. We made a vegetable broth and slow cooked them in preparation one or two days before we intended to eat them. Then, for the actual meal, we put them into the oven and grilled them. They turned out great - juicy on the inside and were very crispy on the outside . They may not be too crsipy when they´re still in the oven, but once you take them out and just leave for a little while, they are nice n crispy !

The only difference is that chicken wings and drums are a lot smaller, so you don´t need to cook them in the broth as long. And make sure that you put the fatty side facing up when you put them in the oven. :)
