1. Cut off and discard the small tip of each wing. Cut the main wing
bone and second at the joint. Sprinkle the wings with salt, if
desired, and pepper to taste.
2. Heat the oil in a deep-fat fryer or large casserole. When it is
quite hot, add half of the wings and cook about 10 minutes, stirring
occasionally. When the wings are golden brown and crisp, remove them
and drain well.
3. Add the remaining wings and cook about 10 minutes or until golden
brown and crisp. Drain well.
4. Melt the butter in a saucepan and add two to five tablespoons of
the hot sauce and vinegar. Put the chicken wings on a warm platter
and pour the butter mixture over them. Serve with blue-cheese dressing
and celery sticks. Yield: Four to six servings.
Blue Cheese Dressing:
1. Combine all of the ingredients in a mixing bowl.
2. Chill for an hour or longer. Yield: About two and one-half cups.
Mayonnaise:
1. Place the yolk in a mixing bowl and add salt, if desired, and
pepper to taste, mustard, and vinegar or lemon juice. Beat vigorously
for a second or two with a wire whisk or electric beater.
2. Start adding the oil gradually, beating continuously with the whisk
or electric beater. Continue beating and adding oil until all of it is
used. Makes about 1 cup.
