How to Boil Meats.

Our most scientific cooks say that
the way to boil an egg is not TO boil
1t. Paradoxically, we may say the
same thing about chicken. for the way
to bold n chicken Is not to boil 1t. but
to simmer it. In nine cases out OF
ten in cooking. the less fire the better
work, and this is especially true IN
the boiling OF meats. They should be
boiled very slowly. which is the same
thing as saying they must be simmer
ed. Any ancient bird may be sim
mered until the meat will part from
the bones. but any young chicken can
be boiled as tough as the proverbial
old hen, the meet clinging to the bones
and seeming to be all bone and ten
don. The best way to start the pre-
pared chicken is to pour boiling water
over II. let II boil up for few min
utes-five is usually about all 1t viii
stand-then lessen the fire. Skim and
keep covered while cooking. Do not
salt until about half done.
