Korean Fried Chicken (Yang Nyeom) | Woo Can Cook

Показать описание

hello hi everyone! Wesley here. Today we’re diving back into our series dedicated to the Bay Area restaurant scene with a Korean fried chicken or yang nyeom chicken inspired by the one found at OBTown Chicken in Oakland, CA. OB Town Chicken (or just OB Chicken, for those of us that have been around long enough to predate their rebrand) is one of Oakland’s most popular locations to grab some Korean fried chicken, a pint of Hite, and a real late night of drinking with your friends. It’s location (while also relatively close to the strip of other Korean BBQ restaurants in the neighborhood) is also right on the border between Oakland and Berkeley, making it a popular spot for many UC Berkeley students (myself included).

More specifically today we’ll be diving into their “yang nyeom” chicken, or gochujang glazed chicken wings. For those unfamiliar, while obviously there are many different forms of Korean fried chicken or “KFC,” the term is often is often colloquially used to refer to this very specific and iconic form of bright red, sticky glazed wing. Today we’ll be doing ours with a combination of honey, sweet chili sauce, and of course, gochujang to achieve our sweet, spicy, savory, and wonderfully messy hot wing. To round this out, we’ll also be pairing our glaze with a super light corn starch breading, combined with one of my very favorite ingredients in a deep fry, a bit of baking powder to help us get a crispy and puffy wing. Hope you try it.
