Cooking Guide

Step 1
1

Place the wings, vegetables, herbs, garlic, bay leaves, and peppercorns into the stockpot, and cover with cold water.

The Why

Starting from cold water lets fat and proteins render into the broth gradually as it heats, drawing out flavor instead of sealing it inside the meat.
