I'm doing oven baked chicken wings for dinner tonight and found this recipe:

Truly Crispy Oven Baked Chicken Wings

These crispy oven baked wings are EXTRA crispy and so easy to make. The skin is so shatteringly crisp, you will think these are deep fried!

www.recipetineats.com

It calls for the wings to be tossed in baking powder and salt rather than flour like most recipes. Thoughts? Have any of you try using baking powder to coat chicken wings? Would they be as great as the recipe author suggests?

I've done this but with the following recipe. The drying period is very important. They're VERY good.

The Best Oven-Fried Chicken Wings Recipe

This oven-fried crispy buffalo wing recipe makes baked wings that are less messy than their fried counterpart, and taste almost indistinguishable.

The wife is of German heritage, so she's getting sauerbraten mit Ingwerkeks Bratensoße, bratkartoffeln und sauerkraut. Schmeckt!

So a quick Google translate gives me:

"sauerbraten with ginger biscuits gravy, fried potatoes and sauerkraut" - with 'sauerbraten' being German for sour roast.

That's a lot of sour for a German people known for their joviality!

I've never tried it and I'm a terrible cook and the last person you should take advice from, but....

My older sister married a guy who cooks and he uses baking powder when he does his chicken. Really good chicken, too, like out of a deep fryer. The one big caution is to make sure your powder does NOT contain aluminum. They always used Rumford Baking Powder because apparently other powder brands leave you with a bitter tasting chicken.

I forgot to take pics but the wings were absolutely devoured! I did four pounds of wings and we have exactly one left.

I used Magic baking powder - couldn't find Rumford - and there was no bitterness at all. And no aluminum on the ingredient list. I've already had requests from the kids to do it again. And soon.

This is very close to the real thing. When I make it again, I'll reduce the amount of sugar.
