Cooking tips 💡

• The combination of cola and ginger wine effectively eliminates poultry odors and tenderizes the meat.
• Always boil chicken wings with the lid off to drive away gaminess; do not rinse after boiling to preserve flavor.
• Grating the onion enhances the umami depth of the sauce and helps the seasoning adhere better to the chicken.
