QUAIL LEGS - SPAIN

These quail legs, also known as "lollipop quail legs" or "quail tulips," feature bones meticulously cleaned to the leg meat, creating an eye-catching presentation and a handy natural grip. Each leg contains just enough meat for one bite, making them an ideal choice for appetizers or hors d'oeuvres, frequently prepared and served in a manner akin to chicken wings.

The quail meat, noted for its light color, is both tender and juicy, with a unique, sweet, and slightly nutty taste. Enjoyed across a wide range of culinary traditions including European, Middle Eastern, and Southeast Asian, quail meat beautifully complements various spices and flavors.

Furthermore, these quails are air chilled, a process chefs prefer as it more effectively retains the bird's natural flavors, enhances the meat's capacity to soak up marinades, avoids unnecessary water weight, and is more eco-friendly by minimizing the production of contaminated water compared to the commonly used water chilling method for poultry.
