Method
Pat wings dry, cut into drumettes and flats if desired, and season with black pepper.
Mix soy sauce, honey, oil, grated ginger, and minced garlic4. Coat wings thoroughly and let marinate for 10 minutes.
Arrange wings in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 25 minutes.
Flip wings, brush with pan juices, and bake another 15 minutes until deep golden, sticky, and juices run clear at the bone.
Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and serve hot.
Tips
- Why it works
- Bake the wings at 200 °C so the honey doesn't burn and the sauce caramelizes into a sticky crust. At a lower temperature the glaze stays runny and won't set.
- Substitutions
- Replace the ginger with 1 teaspoon of ground ginger (0.5 g) or 1 tablespoon of jarred paste. You can skip the honey and add 10 g of sugar for caramelization.
- Common mistakes
- If the wings are pale inside, they aren't done yet. Clear juice near the bone and a golden crust show they're ready.
- Storing and reheating
- Keeps 2 days in the fridge. Reheat in the oven at 180 °C for 10 minutes so the glaze doesn't run.
- Serve with
- Serve with cold beer or kvass at a festive table when you need a filling snack without much fuss.
