Recipe
MAKE THE BLUE CHEESE DRESSING
1. In a mixing bowl and using a wire whisk, combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, vinegar, parsley, shallots, and garlic, blending until smooth. Gently stir in the crumbled cheese until completely mixed in.
MAKE THE BUFFALO WINGS
1. Place the wings in a glass or other non-reactive bowl and add 1 cup of the hot sauce. Mix thoroughly, being sure all the wings are coated, cover, and refrigerate for a minimum of 30 minutes.
2. Place the flour in a separate mixing bowl and season with kosher salt and cayenne pepper to taste. In a separate bowl, prepare an egg wash by whisking together the eggs and milk until well blended. Working with all three bowls (wings, flour mixture, and egg wash), first dredge each wing in the flour mixture; then dip the wing into the egg wash; and finally dredge the wing completely in the flour mixture, coating it evenly.
3. Deep-fry the wings for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the batter achieves a crisp, uniform texture. When cooked through, set aside to drain on paper towels or the non-printed side of a paper grocery bag.
TO SERVE
1. Place the fried wings in a large bowl and drench with the remaining 1 cup hot sauce (or less, to taste). Serve with the blue cheese dipping sauce and celery sticks on the side - and plenty of napkins!
