Democracy Dies in Darknessclock10 minscourseCondimentStart CookingComment on this storyAdd to your saved recipesBy Aaron Hutcherson

This spicy-sweet, sticky sauce of honey, gochujang, soy sauce, ginger and garlic beautifully coats baked, fried or air-fried wings. Once the wings are cooked (see related recipes), transfer them to a bowl, add the sauce and toss to coat. Sprinkle the wings with the scallions and sesame seeds, if desired.

Make ahead: The sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance and refrigerated in an airtight container.

Where to buy: Gochujang can be found at Asian markets, well-stocked supermarkets or online.

Correction: In an earlier version of this recipe, the nutritional analysis included an incorrect amount for the fiber. It is only 1 gram of fiber per serving. It has been corrected.
