Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 400F. Arrange wings in large roasting pan. Roast until deep brown, turning once, about 2 hours total.

2. Transfer wings to large bowl. Spoon 3 TBS turkey fat from roasting pan into large pot (reserve roasting pan). Add onion, carrot, and celery to pot. Saute over medium-high heat until vegetables are golden, about 20 minutes. Add turkey wings to pot. Add 2 cups water to roasting pan. Place over 2 burners and bring to boil, scraping up browned bits. Add liquid to pot. Add remaining ingredients and enough cold water to cover wings by 1 inch.

3. Bring water to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer uncovered until stock is very flavorful and reduced to 7 1/2 to 8 cups, about 2 and 1/2 hours. Strain stock into large bowl. Cool 1 hour, then chill until cold, about 3 hours.

Can be made up to 3 days ahead. Also can be frozen 2 weeks ahead.
