Directions for DrOilins and Frying
Several Sauces Which
.....'... Are Good.

Young chickens may be either
broiled or fried. For broiling, split
them the length of the backbone
after carefully removing all pin
feathers and cutting the oilbag out"
Crush the breastbone with. a. sharp
blow of a mallet, to fatten. the bird
evenly. Remove the entrails, being
careful to take out all the lungs and
all dark matter on tina inside of the
bird, as we'll as any fat that can be,
reached under the skin. Wipe the
chicken thoroughly, inside and out,
with a cloth dipped in. cold water, but
do not let the chickens soak in water.
The French cook whitens the flesh
of the chicken to be broiled by soak
ing it in cold water, but this is done
at the sacrifice of flavor. Dredge the
chicken we'll with salt and pepper;
steam it little by laying it Oh
roasting-rack, placed over dripping
pan of boiling water.
Invert pan over it so as to COM
pletely cover it. and set the arrange
ment in hot oven for 20 minutes. At
the end of this time. rub the chicken
with sweet butter, and lay it on
broiler over fire that has been dead
ened a little by leaving the covers off
the stove for three or four minutes.
Lay the chicken on the broiler with
the inside to the fire. Cover with
deep tin, and let it remain until it
is rich golden brown. Be careful to
keep the hampers of the stove all
turned on, so that the smoke of any
dripping will blow up the chimney,
instead of smoking the chicken.
Brown the chicken few minutes on
the outside, and lay it on hot plat
ter with a garnish of green and a
little nice sweet butter.
\ chicken for frying must be cut
into the same pieces as for fricassee.
Wipe the parts, season them, dip
them in -four and fry them in butter
until they are golden brown on both
sides. Dish them on hot platter and
cover them closely, while you stir a
scant tablespoonful of flour into the
drippings left from the frying. After
mixing the flour thoroughly into the
drippings. add (; pint of rich milk or
cream, and let it simmer five minutes,
stirring it well. Add tablespoonful
of tarragon leaves which have been
scalded in water and drained, and you
will have tarragon sauce; or, if you
prefer. spoonful of minced and scald-
ed parsley may be served.
A simple cream mushroom sauce
may be used with fried chicken. SIM
mer half a dozen mushrooms, cut in
coarse bits, in butter. Stir in tea,
spoonful of flour and add cup of
cream and a cup of milk. Let the
sauce simmer for five minutes. Serve
it in tureen with fried chicken. The
wild mushrooms found in the fields
in August are delicious when served
with broiled chickens.
