Wings that don't get soggy!
While I am not a chef, I do have many years of deep-frying experience at the State Fair of TX. When I moved back to TX from NY 14 years ago, I was really missing Korean Fried Chicken, so I was determined to open up a wings & ramen joint! Since my SIL had experience running a restaurant, I would always pitch her ideas. We tested so many different batters for wings, and they were GOOD, but none of them would stay crispy after getting sauced. Even my mom got involved and encouraged us to try corn starch!

At some point, I realized that opening a restaurant was a little far-fetched. I then recalled eating yakitori at a Japanese place, and it was just chicken skin!! There was no meat! It was delicious because the skin is my favorite part! Elated with this new revelation, I ran to my SIL and said, "What if we took just the chicken skin and fried it??? And instead of opening a restaurant, we can apply for the State Fair, and surely it'll stand out!?"
And of course, my SIL excitedly agreed!! I was so happy she didn't call me crazy for my wild ideas! I hope you all have a chi Michelle in your life!! My uncle also hopped onboard. Gotta love that entrepreneurial spirit! My SIL and I spent many nights testing all kinds of fried foods, and somehow, we were accepted for a booth out of hundreds of applications!

When we applied, I was transitioning back to TX, but then I got a full-time position back in Corporate America. Thankfully, my SIL is a boss babe and managed the whole operations and delegated a few of the tasks to my uncle and me. She brought everything to life!
I like to think we brought fried chicken skin to Texas, and maybe even the US! I am trying to get more comfortable bragging about my accomplishments instead of feeling weird about it! Oh, and I was also on a deep-frying TV competition, and I won with a French toast mac-n-cheese burger. All this to say that deep-frying and air-frying are kinda my jam! :)

SECRET: So the secret to wings that stay crispy is a wet batter that consists of corn starch and rice flour!!
