I’ve always double fried my fried chicken too. But I didn’t really know that it was an Asian thing! When I was double frying some chicken (for family meal when it was my turn to cook for staff), one of the French chefs asked me why I am double frying…I was like, “to make it crispier (duh)!” And then I later realized that many people didn’t use or know about that trick. Your video has me craving some fried chicken!
yes, double frying method also helps cook the chicken thoroughly. Cheers! : )
I’ve always fried my chicken wings just like you. Last night I decided to add a twist and coated it with the spicy sauce. Omg, It was fantastic! My younger girl who don’t usually like wings, polished off 4! Received a thumbs up from everyone. Thanks Maangchi !
“My younger girl who don’t usually like wings, polished off 4!” I’m happy to hear that!
I made this tonight…OMG!!! So yummy!!! Like chicken candy!!! :)
Great!!
안녕 하세요 ㅋㅋㅋ!Well for Ms. Maangchi Kim,honestly I started watching your videos.since yesterday and I’m so glad that i found this site..so fanatic!
Well everybody usually thinks that when you say “KOREAN CUISINE” it sounds pretty hard to prepare and cook for it but through your amazing videos,you mde it very quite simple..
And that’s the best way I can earn more confidence about cooking korean food without complicated process..A big thanks to you…
Been in Korea and.I do really love Korean foods…very awesome…I’ll keep on watching!thanks♥♥♥감사합니다
“…that’s the best way I can earn more confidence about cooking korean food without complicated process..” Thank you so much for your nice words! Good luck with your Korean cooking!
We love your videos. We just made this. However, instead of the dried peppers we substituted gochujang. Korean food is great. There are so many possible variations to Korean recipes, the variety is endless. Thanks for this video!
I used the sauce on baked chicken wings and people demanded the recipe. I had some sauce left over which I put on some salmon. YUM!
ow ow, Congratulations! : )
This is one of my favorite Korean food. I have been trying to find this recipe and luckily just found it here.
I would love to try it soon.
Hi Maangchi!
I’m here to thank you for this great recipe. I made this for dinner and it was still very crispy and crunchy after it was cooled. A definite keeper! <3 thank you very much!
I removed all the seeds from the dried chillies and after taste testing I realize there wasn't enough heat. So I added hot pepper flakes to the sauce. Gave the dish a even redder colour too.
Hi Maangchi,
I made 10lbs. of these wings tonight for my super bowl party tonight and they were “so delicious.” Everyone said that they were the best wings that they had ever had in their life! They were so crunchy, I guess it was the double frying. Thanks!
Chris
Chris!
I’m so happy that I’m almost crying! I’m glad everybody liked them!
I made this tonight for the game tonight. My husband doesn’t like chicken wings, but he ate SOO many tonight! Thank you so much for a great website and great recipe.
Maangchi , may I know 양념통닭 and 닭강정 have any different ? I saw the ingredients and cooking process almost same.
This looks great! When I buy 닭강정 from a restaurant sometimes it comes with rice cakes. How would I cook/add rice cakes to the recipe (to make it crunchy but chewy in the middle)?
Fry some rice cake after the chicken is fried for about 1 or 2 minutes until its outside turns a little crunchy but soft inside.
I will definitely be making this soon. But I need to ask, where did you get your tongs?
I found some at Daiso. Its a Japanese dollar store all over the West Coast, maybe on the East Coast too?
Hi Maangchi, I tried the recipe but I used a lot of substitute like Honey and Dried chili. But still it tastes awesome! Hope to get more recipes from you!
Look yummy! Better than 4fingers in Singapore. I would try it with my mum after Chinese New Year!
Great! Let me know the result when you make it later.
