but first...appetizer chicken wings. Don't they look tasty?

18 chicken wings (~3 pounds)
2T olive oil (substitute your choice of salad oil if desired)
3 scallions, sliced
1/2 cup soy sauce (substitute 6T water with 4 tsp dark sugar a pinch or two of Kosher salt and 2T molasses if you are avoiding soy)
1/3 cup dry sherry
1/4 cup ketchup, catchup, or your favorite mixture of tomato and seasonings.
1/4 tsp ground ginger (minced fresh is even better)
3 star anise (optional)
1 head iceberg lettuce, shredded

In a large (5 qt.) pot or Dutch oven cook wings over medium high to high heat, halved and with tips removed, in hot oil with 2/3 of scallions. Stir constantly for 7-10 minutes. Reduce heat to medium heat, add everything except the shredded lettuce and cover. Stir occasionally for 25 minutes. Uncover and cook for 10 more minutes stirring frequently until liquid is absorbed and chicken is tender. Serve warm over shredded lettuce. Garnish with remaining scallions.

Roasted Marrow Bones

Time: 20 minutes

8 to 12 center-cut beef or veal marrow bones, 3 inches long, 3 to 4 pounds total

1 cup roughly chopped fresh parsley

2 shallots, thinly sliced

2 teaspoons capers

1 1/2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

Coarse sea salt to taste

At least 4 1/2-inch-thick slices of crusty bread, toasted.

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Put bones, cut side up, on foil-lined baking sheet or in ovenproof skillet. Cook until marrow is soft and has begun to separate from the bone, about 15 minutes. (Stop before marrow begins to drizzle out.)

2. Meanwhile, combine parsley, shallots and capers in small bowl. Just before bones are ready, whisk together olive oil and lemon juice and drizzle dressing over parsley mixture until leaves are just coated. Put roasted bones, parsley salad, salt and toast on a large plate. To serve, scoop out marrow, spread on toast, sprinkle with salt and top with parsley salad.

Yield: 4 servings.
