Worth knowing before you start
- Dry the wings hard with paper towels before seasoning — surface moisture is the enemy of crisp skin.
- A teaspoon of baking powder (not soda) per pound, tossed with the seasoning, raises the skin's pH and browns it noticeably better.
- Wings are almost impossible to overcook — err long for crispness.
