    Seriously, I’m drooling over here. These look incredible!! Gochujang is still a little new to me, but this looks like a great recipe to get a little more familiar with it 🙂 Have a great weekend, Bernice!!

      You too Natalie! If you do decide to give these a try, you can customize the gochujang, buy regular for a slightly spicy wing or hot gochujang for HOT wings.

    these look so good – I love wings and spice of any kind! I guess my fault is having no wings on my blog a well 🙂

      See? Sometimes, you have to think about these things…they aren’t always obvious. I need many more appetizer type posts as well.

      I don’t recommend it, lol. If yours is like mine there are ‘mystery’ splatters all over it!
