Fowl, Broiled.— This is a hasty and very excellent dish, suitable for the supper-table, to be had in perfection at Windsor, Cookham, &c. Take off the head of a young fowl, and when the bird is dead, ch-aw and plunge it into boiling water. Remove the skin and feathers together. Split it up the back, and lay the inside downwards on a gridiron over a clear fire. Tui-n frequently, and pepper lightly on all sides. When sufficiently done, put it on a hot dish, sprinkle salt, and rub well with butter

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
