POULTRY
HOW TO CLEAN
Singe fowl over free flame. Cut off head just below bill. Untie feet,
break bone and loosen sinews just below joint; pull out sinews and cut
off feet. Cut out oil sac. Lay breast down, slit skin down backbone
toward head; loosen windpipe and crop and pull out. Push back skin
from neck and cut off neck close to body. Make slit below end of
breastbone, put in fingers, loosen intestines from backbone, take firm
grasp of gizzard and draw all out. Cut around vent so that intestines
are unbroken. Remove heart and lungs. Remove kidneys. See that inside
looks clean, let cold water run through, then wipe inside and out with
wet cloth. Cut through thick fleshy part of gizzard and remove inside
heavy skin without breaking, then cut away gristly part so that only
thick, fleshy part is used.
