So one day I wanted to make wings in a honey sauce - I opened the closet and remembered the honey was finished the day before. So I took “Selan” (date syrup) and built around the recipe. True, it's not a revolutionary or innovative recipe, rather the combination of lemon and date syrup - garlic - a lot of soy and other recipes. But it always does the trick. The outcome is great wings with four wonderfully integrated flavors and great, pleasant tartness from the lemon, delicate saltiness from the soy, sweetness of the “Silan” and spicy tingle from the garlic and mustard. This is a wonderful dish when hosting, watching sports, movies and general social activities!
