How To Get Sauce To Stick To Wings [Tried And Tested Methods]
The first time I made chicken wings at home I was looking forward to them all day. So when I saw a pool of buffalo sauce at the bottom of my bowl and barely any on the wings, my heart broke a little. What had I done wrong? I decided to do an experiment and find out. I made a big batch of wings and tested different ways of making my sauce stickier. Here’s what I found out. To get a sticky wing sauce you need to make sure the sauce is properly emulsified – whisk in bit of honey or mustard to help. You can also used a thickener like a roux or cornstarch to get a sticky sauce. Let the wings and sauce cool slightly before tossing, and double coat if necessary.
