Buffalo Wings??

[kellyf]

I am about to order takeout from an Italian Restaurant and I am getting a chicken ceasar salad---and I want to order Buffalo wings. Are they accepted on Induction? please get back to me ASAP--im starving

If they aren't breaded you should be fine. Sometimes (rarely) there is sugar in the hot sauce...if the place you're ordering from are nice people they should be able to tell you what exactly what those wings are cooked with. I would ask. Here's to hoping you get some yummy wings!

[NoMorePumpkin]

Yep. I always just ask if they bread their wings. LOTs of folks don't!! But, like Bugaboo said, the sauce is another place carbs can hide out.

Good luck!!

P.S. I love making my own!!

You'll get really good at asking lots of questions at restaurants. The rule is this: if the ingredients are not on the acceptable food lists for induction, then you can't eat 'em! Hope the wings were acceptable and good!

It's not just the breaded part that you have to watch for. They could be not breaded but cooked in a sugar sauce which I find most restaurants do.

Why the conspiracy with sugar hidden in our foods? As a known narcotic it is highly addictive. I believe that's the main reason why its added to our pre-packaged foods and sauces.

Sugar is a flavor enhancer. So it can hide the poor quality of many foods. For example, if you want frozen veggies to taste "fresher", you add a bit of sugar to the cooking water. Same thing for tomatoes, if the tomatoes are too acidic or lack a bit of flavor, add sugar. Next time you're in the store, read the ingredients to a package of cold cuts---9 times out of 10, you'll find they've tossed some sugar (dextrose, corn syrup solids, etc.) into the cold cuts.

You see sugar added to many Asian sauces as a flavor enhancer but also as a flavor tamer. Soy sauce based sauces and dips have a good amount of sugar added because the soy sauce is too harsh. The sugar helps decrease that harshness. And of course, sugar is added to Asian sauces and foods because many dishes have a sweet-sour-bitter-spicy flavor (which is why it tastes good). Adding sugar helps balance the sour-bitter-spicy flavor.

You can really cook the wings anyway you like, fry, bake or even grill and then just follow the sauce recipe---its easy peasy!
