Blue cheese dressing

1. Set immersion circulator to 160°F (fall-off-the-bone) or 165°F (tender with bite).
2. Season wings with salt, seal in bags, and sous vide for 1–2 hours depending on temperature.
3. Remove wings, pat dry, and refrigerate uncovered on a wire rack for 8 hours (or up to 2 days).
4. In saucepan, melt butter with hot sauce. Set aside in large bowl.
5. Heat oil to 400°F in a Dutch oven or wok. Fry wings in batches for 3 minutes until crispy.
