Sweet Crispy Fried Chicken (dakgangjeong)
  1. Prepare 40 chicken wings or chunks of chicken, rinse them off in cold water and drain them. Transfer the chicken into a big bowl.

  2. Add kosher salt, ground pepper, eggs, and a mixture of the flour and the starch powder. Mix it by hand.

  3. Deep fry the chicken wings in vegetable oil 2 times at about 350” to 380”F.

  4. Prepare a big wok or pan. Place 1 cup of water in the wok and heat it up. Add the ginger to the boiling water. Add soy sauce, brown sugar, vinegar and boil it over medium heat. 5 minutes after, add corn syrup and keep boiling over low medium heat about 30 minutes.

  5. Raise a spoon of the sizzling sauce above the wok in the air and drop it until the sauce starts to stop halfway down. Then turn off the stove.

  6. Reheat the sauce. Add the deep fried chicken, peanuts (or any kind of nuts), dried red hot chili pepper, and the toasted sesame seeds into the sizzling sauce and mix it with a spatula. The amount of sticky sauce will decrease while you are stirring. Then turn off the heat and you are done!
