As published

This recipe was extracted from Soyer's standard cookery (1912) by Nicolas Soyer, page 82. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

Steamed Chicken. Take an old hen, and truss in the usual fashion, taking care that the legs and wings are tied very closely to the body. Rub both inside and outside of the bird with two tablespoonfuls of melted butter, with which have been blended a teaspoonful of salt and half as much white pepper. Now take a large cupful of cooked rice and season with a teaspoonful of curry powder and a little pepper and salt. Place three tablespoonfuls of this rice inside the fowl, together with the giblets

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