This recipe is certainly silly. It says to separate two eggs, but it doesn't say how far to separate them. |

If the headache would only precede the intoxication, alcoholism would be a virtue. |
| Samuel Butler |
"When treasures are recipes they are less clearly, less distinctly remembered than when they are tangible objects. They evoke however quite as vivid a feeling-that is, to some of use who, considering cooking an art, feel that a way of cooking can produce something that approaches an aesthetic emotion. What more can one say? If one had the choice of again hearing Pachmann play the two Chopin sonatas or dining once more at the Cafe Anglais, which would one choose?" |
| Alice B. Toklas |
We are all dietetic sinners; only a small percent of what we eat nourishes us; the balance goes to waste and loss of energy. |

I bake all the time, but I don't like to eat the cookies when they're done. I just like the dough. |

Discard wing tips. Cut between joints. Remove the smaller bone of
the lower wing. Cut skin loose around the small end and push skin
and meat up to form drumstick.
Marinate wings for 1 hour. Add egg white. Coat wings evenly. (Using
egg white to coat the wings will help to seal the juice inside the
meat. Hence the meat will be juicier.
Dredge wings in cornstarch mixture. (Using cornstarch and baking
powder helps to make the outside layer crisp.)
Deep-fry for 3 minutes. Drain. Let cool.
Deep-fry once again right before serving. (Deep-fry the first time
to cook the meat and seal the juice in the meat. The second time to
make the outside crisp. Make sure the oil is very hot before you
deep-fry for the second time.)
