Air-Chilled Chicken Wings vs Water-Chilled Chicken Wings
All chickens go through a process of having the feathers removed. This process involves dipping the chicken in hot water to de-feather at the poultry processor. Then, the chicken needs to be cooled down.
Air-chilled chicken wings are come from air-chilled chickens, which are chilled using cold air usually over three hours. Since the bird chills from the outside to the inside, it holds all the moisture into that bird, and the time it takes is a little bit of aging to the bird adding to the flavor.
Water-chilled chicken are chilled in water, that has chlorine and dilutes some of the taste.
Overall, if you can find air-chilled chicken wings they generally result in a juicy and tender bird.
