[Sca-cooks] Re:poultry was suet & vinegar

[Marcus Loidolt]

Yes, I raise medieval breeds of chickens and geese,

Ebdem geese(the big white ones) were developed
sometime in the late 11th century and were a favorite
in the Imperial court, supposedly Charlemagne demanded
that these sorts be kept at all of his manors. Their
white color, large size and stately bearing make them
quite impressive alive or cooked and dressed in their
own skins! There is a lot of valuable fat on a goose,
but this can be removed prior to roasting by
parboiling the bird in water or vinegar.

The chickens I keep are Dorkings, Neiderlanders,
Italianos, Persians, and Jungle Fowl. My apprentice
also keeps Japanese Silkies and Scots Greys.

Any particular question I can answer???
