Tyler Florence's Sticky Honey- Soy Chicken Wings/ Guy Fieri's Dang Cold Asian Noodle Salad

I have been a little sick for the past couple days (poor me) hence why I have not been logging properly, but I’m back with recipes that I have tried from the foodnetwork.com website.

As for Tyler Florence’s Sticky Honey- Soy Chicken Wings, I have to admit that I didn’t go true to the recipe because I didn’t think my stomach could handle fried foods at that time. So I baked the chicken instead of frying it. I didn’t really care for it, I like Asian flavors, however I did not care for this flavor combination. I think the frying process adds a crispy sticky crust due to the sugar content in the ingredients. I will try the recipe again later and fry the chicken as the recipe calls for and record my results. http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,,FOOD_9936_27279,00.html

However, I also tried Guy Fieri’s Dang Cold Asian Noodle Salad and it was a HIT!!! It was the perfect combination of sour, sweet and tangy. The “pucker” quality of this salad was on point, meaning the tartness or tanginess of the acidity was perfect. I love a tangy, crunchy and fresh pasta salad anyway and this exceeded my expectations. You can also play with the veggie combination until you find one that suits you. http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,,FOOD_9936_67219,00.html

Undecided for the sticky chicken.

Thumbs way up for the Asian Noodle Salad :-)
