Buffalo chicken wings recipe
I remember being very confused as a kid as to how buffaloes could have wings but, as I’m sure you know, they are in fact chicken wings. Something you might not know is that the name ‘Buffalo wings’ actually comes from their place of origin, Buffalo NY. But the story that buffaloes might have the ability to fly will still always go down well with any younger guests.
These spicy wings are pretty fiery, so serve with a delicious blue cheese dip (recipe below) and some crisp celery to cool your mouth down.
