Under normal circumstances, it is recommended to use boiled water for chicken wings, because the cold water time is too long, and the nutrients in chicken wings lose more, which will obviously reduce the taste. But scalding chicken wings with hot water can not only remove the fishy smell of chicken wings, but also make the meat more compact and chewy. In addition, it is suggested that ginger slices and shallots should be added during blanching to improve the purpose of removing fishy smell.
If the chicken wings are not blanched, it will have a certain impact. On the one hand, chicken wings have a fishy smell. If you blanch, it will smell like fish and reduce your appetite. On the other hand, chicken wings contain a lot of blood and some microorganisms such as bacteria.
If you don't blanch, eating more may have an impact on human health, especially the frozen chicken wings bought in the supermarket. Therefore, it is suggested to blanch the chicken wings, which can not only remove the fishy smell, but also ensure food hygiene.
