"Wings Across America" news and stories

Yesterday we did dips during the cookbook of the day, but we all know that dips aren't much good without something that needs dipping. Chips, crackers and crudite are all good options, but when it comes to sports, hot wings should be a game day staple. Wings Across America: 150 Outrageously Delicious Chicken-Wing Recipes: 150 Outrageously Delicious Chicken Wings Recipes is a cookbook that serves up more than enough recipes for chicken wings to get you through this season and next.

The wing recipes in the book go much farther than you might expect them to in terms of flavor, with recipes from not only all over the country, but from around the world as well. You'll find the classic Buffalo hot wings, as well as Cajun-style wings, and heat levels that range from mild to fiery hot. The better-traveled wings use a combinations of spices and sauces from the Caribbean, Italy and Mexico, with some Asian flavors thrown in for good measure. There are plenty of dips and butters that go perfectly with the wings, as well as a variety of wing-complementing side dishes and salads. Many of which, like the Yummy Beer Battered Onion Rings, are deep fried.

And just in case the massive number of wing recipes still can't tempt you to get into the kitchen and make your own batch, the book includes a section on "wing joints," so you'll be able to track some already made ones down.
