At Circle City Tavern in Corona, California, the Black Garlic Chicken Wings elevate a familiar favorite. Each wing is brined for two days, then breaded and fried. They’re finished in a house sauce made from garlic that’s been fermented for 30 days, then blended with hoisin and soy to deliver a rich, savory glaze with deep umami character. “We approached this dish the way we do everything on the menu—with respect for comfort food, but a desire to push it further. The fermented garlic brings this mellow sweetness and funk that transforms the wings into something truly memorable,” said Chef Angel Garcia.
