Buffalo Chicken Wraps

Cultural Context

Buffalo Chicken Wraps originate from the Buffalo wing craze in the United States, where spicy chicken wings became a staple. This dish combines the bold flavors of Buffalo sauce with the convenience of a wrap, making it a popular choice for casual meals and game day gatherings. Today, variations abound, with some incorporating different proteins or toppings, but the essence of spicy, creamy goodness remains.

To make the ranch sauce, add 1 whole egg, 15 mL of white vinegar, 10 g of mustard, and 100 mL of neutral flavored oil to a jar.
