Wing

Partridge wings are skin-rich with modest meat—excellent roasted, glazed or simmered for stock. Tips add gelatin to broths. Small lean game bird, delicately gamey and milder than pheasant when young. Joint for even cooking, dry the skin for crispness, and season boldly. Use leftover bones in the stock pot. British, French and Spanish game traditions treats wings as snacks or thrift cuts.
