Ingredients

18 chicken wings, disjointed, tips discarded (36 pieces)
1/4 Cup cornstarch
1 Cup all purpose flour
6 Tablespoons butter
1/4 Cup hot pepper sauce
vegetable oil, for frying

For the Dipping Sauce:

1/4 pound blue cheese, Roquefort or Gorgonzola
1/2 Cup mayonnaise
1/2 Cup sour cream
1 Tablespoon lemon juice
1 Tablespoon white wine vinegar
hot pepper sauce, to taste

Instructions

Mix the cornstarch and flour in a plastic bag. Coat wings in the mixture, shake off excess and allow to rest on a plate.
Melt butter in a small saucepan. Add hot sauce and remove from the heat.
In large frying pan or deep-fat fryer, heat 1" of oil to 375 degrees. Fry wings in batches without crowding until golden brown, 12 1/2 minutes. Drain on paper towels.

Blue Cheese Dipping Sauce

In small bowl, mash the blue cheese, leaving some small lumps. Whisk in the mayonnaise until blended. Add the remaining ingredients and whisk to blend well. Cover and refrigerate until serving time.
