I cannot conceive of cooking up a batch of chicken wings, without having a bowl of crumbly blue cheese dip, to plunge them in. As a matter of fact, in some States, you can be fined and thrown in jail, just for leaving it off the menu. This recipe has traditional ingredients (blue cheese, to name one), and one or two other bits-and-bobs, to make it, shall we say, rather interesting. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.
