Braised sweet soy chicken wings, sauteed kale with garlic, sauteed zucchini and summer squash

priss | September 19, 2012

Tonight’s menu:

Braised sweet soy chicken wings (瑞士汁雞翼), sauteed kale with garlic, sauteed zucchini and summer squash with herbs and crispy garlic, & veggie miso soup!

The sweet soy sauce (瑞士汁) is made from scratch.  Once again, Kale and collard greens are from my friend’s garden, and the garlic & tomatoes are from my dad’s garden.  Organic zucchini and summer squash are leftovers from the batch used to make baby G’s yummy veggie puree.

The dinner looks like a lot but it didn’t take me long at all.  Yup Beau was impressed… and baby G ate like a pig again.  =)

What a great night!

Braised sweet soy chicken wings (瑞士汁雞翼)

Ingredients:

Home-made sweet soy sauce:
soy sauce (生抽), dark soy sauce (老抽), water, leeks, shallots, ginger, star anise (八角), white rock sugar (冰糖)

wings

1. Bring water to a boil and immerse wings and let boil for not more then a minute. Put the wings in a bath of ice water.  This will improve the taste by removing all the gunk attached to the wings.  It’ll also make the wings look fuller at the end.

2. In a pot, add all the ingredients for the sweet soy sauce.  Portions of soy sauce and dark soy sauce depend on how much wings you will make.  Rule of thumb: soy sauce & dark soy sauce : water radio = 1:1.  Throw in a couple shallots, ginger, star anise and sliced leeks.  Add enough white rock sugar so the sauce tastes a bit sweet.

3. Simmer the sauce until the white rock sugar dissolves.  Do NOT let it boil.

4. Now add wings and cover the lid.  Once it boils, turn off the heat and let it sit for at least 45 minutes, covered.  Turn the wings once in a while to ensure all sides are nicely coated with the sauce.

DONE!

    Be my guest anytime Nami さん! Not gonna lie – the sweet soy sauce tastes a lot better than the store-brought ones. I’m sure you already know because you like making your own sauce too! Healthier and without preservatives eh! =) Thanks for stopping by!
