Cooking tips 💡

• Adding a small amount of chunjang to the sauce reduces saltiness compared to using soy sauce alone, while enhancing depth of flavor and giving the dish a vibrant, appealing color.
• When grilling the chicken wings, start with the lid closed to cook through, then uncover after flipping to allow moisture to evaporate and achieve a crispy exterior.
• Adding crushed peanuts as a garnish at the end adds a rich, nutty texture and significantly elevates the overall quality of the braised chicken wings.
