Babish pronouncing worcestershire sauce differently every time makes my day.

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!

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.

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!

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.

Just got on my break on a long gruelling day at work in a kitchen and this is just what I needed to unwind. Thanks Babish

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.

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!

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 🙃

[DSingh]

Tried the Botanist in Jamaica and I’m in love. So smooth, so delicious. Thanks, Babish!

[mplouse]

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!

Super happy for this episode my toddler is a huge fan of wings. Perfect timing for grilling for the 4th

[HamerBoogie]

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.

[ironcross]

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.

[gabesolomon]

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.

[ShovelChef]

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. 😎👍

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

[Jesteresque]

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.

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

[noahshupenko]

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.
