Steps:
- Make the dip: Pulse the sour cream, blue cheese, mayonnaise, garlic, milk and lemon juice in a food processor until combined but still chunky. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Make the wings: Heat 1 inch of vegetable oil in a large deep skillet over high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 375 degrees F. Set a rack on a rimmed baking sheet.
- Mix the flour and paprika in a shallow dish. Dredge the wings in the flour mixture to coat, tapping off the excess. Fry the wings in batches, turning as needed, until cooked through and deep golden brown, about 15 minutes. (Return the oil to 375 degrees F between batches.) Remove with tongs and transfer to the rack to drain.
- Meanwhile, combine the hot sauce, butter and honey in a medium pot over medium heat until the butter melts. Continue to cook, stirring, until the sauce thickens slightly, about 10 minutes. Reserve one-quarter of the sauce for serving. Add the cooked wings to the pot and toss with the remaining sauce. Serve with the blue cheese dip and reserved sauce.

Steps:
- Slowly melt the butter, hot sauce and vinegar in a medium saucepan, then pour into a large bowl. Mix all the ingredients for the blue cheese dip together with a pinch of salt. Cover and chill until needed.
- Trim the end off each chicken wing, then cut each in half through the joint. Tip the wings into a bowl. Add the celery salt (if using), seasoning and enough flour so they're all evenly coated.
- Heat 4 tbsp oil in a large, deep frying pan and add the wings (do this in 2 batches if your pan isn't big enough). Fry them, stirring frequently, until they are cooked through and browned all over, about 10 mins for each batch. As soon as they are cooked, transfer them to the bowl of butter sauce and stir well. Repeat with the second batch. Serve the wings on a platter with any extra buttery sauce poured over and the blue cheese dip and celery sticks on the side

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken wings: Look for chicken wings that are plump and meaty, with no bruises or tears in the skin.
- Use a good quality buffalo sauce: There are many different brands of buffalo sauce available, so choose one that you like the flavor of. You can also make your own buffalo sauce at home.
- Don't overcook the chicken wings: Overcooked chicken wings will be dry and tough. Cook them until they are just cooked through, about 10-12 minutes in the oven or 8-10 minutes in a deep fryer.
- Serve the chicken wings with your favorite dipping sauce: Blue cheese dressing is a classic, but you can also try ranch dressing, honey mustard, or barbecue sauce.
- Garnish the chicken wings with some chopped celery and carrots: This will add some color and freshness to the dish.
Conclusion:
Buffalo chicken wings are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for parties or game day. With its crispy skin, tender meat, and flavorful buffalo sauce, it's no wonder why this dish is so popular. So next time you're looking for a crowd-pleasing snack, give buffalo chicken wings a try.
