Instructions: 1. Chop off and discard bony tips of chicken wings; then cut each wing in two. Cut scallions in 1-inch sections.

2. Place wings and scallions in a pan with soy sauce, sherry, water and sugar. Bring to a boil; then simmer, covered, 30 minutes.

3. Uncover pan and simmer 15 minutes more, stirringand basting frequently for uniform color. Refrigerate to chill.

NOTE: Chicken wings are considered a delicacy because of their finely textured meat and slippery skin.

VARIATIONS: For the chicken wings, substitute giblets. In step 2, substitute the following mixture: 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1/3 cup water, 2 tablespoons sugar, 1 tablespoon sherry, 3 tablespoons oyster sauce, 2 slices ginger root, and 2 Cloves star anise. Omit the scallions.
