BUFFALO WINGS ORIGINAL RECIPE   



 After Burgers and Pizza, these Buffalo Chicken Wings may very well be America’s 3rd most popular dish. And guess what? They’re not just American, they’re Italian American Teressa Bellissimo one night at her families Anchor Bar in Buffalo New York. Legend has it that Teressa’s son Dom was hanging out at the bar one night with his buddy’s. The guys were hungry so Mamma Bellissimo whipped up a little snack for the boys. Teressa fried up some wings, made a little hot sauce and coated the wings with them. And served them to the boys. They went nuts they loved them. They started serving them as a free at the bar for the bar customers. It was just a matter of weeks before all of Buffalo found out about these tasty wings. They became famous almost over night, whereby the Bellissimo’s stopped serving them for free at the bar and put them on the menu. The Bellissimo’s served Italian Food at their Anchor Bar, and the Italian Food was quite special. However the Bellisimo’s tasty Chicken Wings quickly out sold all the regular Italian Specialty Dishes and the Bellissimo’s Wings became the number 1 best seller on the menu. Not only that, but Teressa’s Italian-American created Chicken Wings became uber famous all over America and subsequently all over the World. That’s Italian, “Italian-American.”    



 RECIPE : 


 Ingredients:

36 chicken wing pieces (one wing makes 2 pieces - the "flat" & the drum) 
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, 
1/2 teaspoon salt 
 1 cup all-purpose flour 
 1 & 1/2 tablespoons white vinegar 
 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper 
 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder 
 1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce 
1 teaspoon Tabasco sauce 
6 tablespoons Frank’s Hot Sauce (or other) 
6 tablespoons unsalted Butter or Margarine 
Celery Sticks
 1 bottle of Blue Cheese Dressing 


 Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. 



Cut whole wings into two pieces at the joint. In a bowl toss the wings with the oil, and salt. 



Place into a large plastic shopping bag, and add the flour. Shake to coat evenly. 



Remove wings from the bag, shaking off excess flour, and spread out evenly on oiled foil-lined baking pan(s). Do not crowd. Bake for about 20 minutes, turn the wings over, and cook another 20 minutes, or until the wings are cooked through and browned. 



 While the Wings are baking, mix all the ingredients for the sauce in a pan, and cook over low heat for 6 minutes, stirring occasionally. After the Wings are cooked, remove from oven. 



Place wings in a large bowl and pour sauce over wings to coat. Mix thoroughly. 

Serve with Blue Cheese Dressing and fresh Celery Spears.

  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 6 garlic cloves
  • 1 small yellow onion, chopped (approximately ¼ cup)
  • 10 anchovies, chopped
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Add the onions to the saucepan and sauté for three to four minutes, until soft and translucent. Add the anchovies and 1 ⅓ cups water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for four minutes, occasionally stirring. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the basil and parsley. Uncover and simmer for two minutes, and remove from the heat.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high flame, add the breadcrumbs, and toss gently until lightly browned.

Hateful Eight is Disappointing

 

Kurt Russel and Samuel L Jackson




Saw The Hateful Eight last night .. I'm a big fan of Quentin Tarrantino, his movies, and screen writing abilities. I consider Pulp Fiction an absolute Masterpiece of movie making, and for this reason always look forward to a new Tarrantino Film. However, I'm sorry to say, that since that masterpiece of Pulp Fiction, I'm still looking for something great from Quentin, but haven't enjoyed anything since then. Jackie Brown was So So, and I didn't like either Kill Bill 's what-so-ever. Didn't care for Inglorious Bastards at all. I like Resivoir Dogs, but not nearly as much as the great Pulp. True Romance which Tarrantino wrote the screenplay but did not direct was awesome and for me number 2 after Pulp Fiction of Tarrantino Screenplays. And The Hateful Eight, sorry to say, was a Stinker that just didn't cut the mustard. Sorry Quentin. Hoping the next will be better. Basta !










They are charging $20 to see the HATEFUL EIGHT in Manhattan  ... It's a RIP-OFF !!! 

SAVE YOUR MONEY !!!

Wait to See it on Netflix or Cable

"TRUST ME" !!!
