可樂雞翼
點 Cook Guide blanches the wings in cold water, not boiling, to scrub the fridge out of them.
Cola chicken wings have circulated in Chinese home kitchens for decades, the cola reducing into a lacquered glaze that reads more savory than sweet. 點 Cook Guide starts the wings in cold water rather than hot, a step the recipe frames explicitly as removing 冷藏味, the residual refrigerator odor that blanching in already-boiling water would seal in rather than purge. After a 20-minute braise in cola, soy sauce, and dark soy sauce, the braising liquid is reduced separately, then poured back over the wings to finish.
