Tip(s):
- To shape chicken wings into drumsticks, cut off the wing tips then halve wings at joint.
- Separate the ‘drumstick’ or first-joint pieces, the thick ones, from the second-joint pieces.
- Beginning at the narrower end of each ‘drumstick’, cut the tendons using a sharp knife.
- Holding the exposed end of the bone with a kitchen towel, scrape the skin and meat down the bone as far as possible toward the thicker end to make a plump drumstick shape.
- Cut through the cartilage at one end of each second-joint piece; separating the bones, scrape the skin and meat down the larger bone to make a plump drumstick shape then pull out and discard the smaller bone.
