How to make Gochujang Chicken Wings

Tips from the cook

  • Use baking powder, not baking soda: the two don't work the same here.
  • Pat the wings dry with paper towels so they crisp up in the oven.
  • Use every sauce ingredient; each one is needed for a balanced glaze.
  • An air fryer works too, on the setting you usually use for wings.
