Cold Wings Appetizers Recipe

Cold Wings Appetizers Notes

I was looking for a way to make wings ahead of time so they could be served cold. Steaming and chilling works much better than frying.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 inch fresh ginger, crushed
  • 1 tablespoon hot sauce
  • 1/2 cup light soy sauce
  • 16 chicken wing pieces
  • 1/4 cup dark soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon crushed red pepper

Serves / Yields

8

Preparation Instructions

In a plastic bag, combine vegetable oil, ginger, hot sauce and half of the soy sauce. Coat wings in the marinade and marinate at room temeprature for at least an hour. Drain and steam the wings on a greased rack for 15 minutes. In another plastic bag, mix the rest of the soy sauce with the crushed red pepper. Remove the wings from the steam rack and add to the new mixture. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Helpful Hints

For the first marinade, use fish sauce instead of soy sauce. It gives a great flavor without the color. If you are substituting with fish sauce, try to use dark soy sauce for the second marinade to give the wings a final dark color.

Strawberries are too delicate to be picked by machine. The perfectly ripe ones even bruise at too heavy a human touch. It hit her then that every strawberry she had ever eaten--every piece of fruit--had been picked by calloused human hands. Every piece of toast with jelly represented someone's knees, someone's aching back and hips, someone with a bandanna on her wrist to wipe away the sweat. Why had no one told her about this before?
