Wing

Wing bones and tips are collagen-rich for their size—classic for fortifying stock and for Chinese superior stocks when combined with other parts. Tips alone are cheap body builders for broth. Simmer tips and bones gently; they cloud less when not boiled hard. Freeze wing tips from party prep until you have a bagful. Combine with feet for a natural gel that sets when chilled. Strain through fine cloth for clear consommé-style bases.

History

Buffalo-wing kitchens diverted tips into stock rather than trash.

Fine-dining chicken jus often started with roasted wing bones.
