Using Birds From Poultry Corn Meal Is Excellent in a
Flock Is Good Practice,
Number of Ways.
(Prepared by the U nited S tate* Department
of A g ricu ltu ra.)
Canning the surplus birds from the
home poultry flock 1» oftentimes an
economical practice. Either young or
old birds may be canned by home
methods. Plump well-fed hens two
years old have as good texture and
better flavor when canned than six-
months old chickens.
Prepare the chicken for canning as
you would for cooking. Pick, singe,
remove pin feathers, and wash the
birds. Then disjoint and cut them In
the usual pieces, and discard the en
trails. Remove and discard the oil
sac and the lungs and kidneys, and
do not use the giblets and eggs for
canning. Be particularly careful not
to break the gall bladder. If this
does huppeu, do not use that chicken
for canning because it will have a
very unpleasant taste. Trim off any
large pieces of fat. If there Is a
great deal of fat In the Jar, It Is like
ly to cook out on the rubber ring dur
ing the processing and may cause it
to slip, thus spoiling the seal. Cut
the white meat in large pieces from
the breast bone and shoulders. Leave
the meat on the bones in the other
pieces. Cut the neck off close to the
body, and use It and the other very
bony piece?, such as the back and per
haps the feet, after they have been
skinned, for making broth to fill up
the Jars. Cover these bony pieces
with lightly suited cold water, bring
to the boil, and simmer for 15 min
utes to make this broth.
Chicken should be packed hot ln*o
hot, clean Jars. It may be prepared
for packing in either of two ways.
Simmer the pieces of chicken in a
small quantity of water until it Is
boiling hot all through. Or sear the
pieces in hot fat until they are golden
brown, and then pour hot broth over
them and let them heat through to
boiling temperature. Do not roll the
meat In flour before cooking, because
this makes it more difficult to process
effectively.
Pack the pieces of hot chicken In
pint Jars. Put some white and some
dark meat Into each Jar, or pack all
the white meat into separnte Jars If
desired for some special use. Be
sure, however, not to get ?o close a
pack that lift broth cannot circulate
freely in the Jar. Two four-pound
birds, when cut up and cooked ready
for packing into the Jars, will fill five
pint Jar?, Add a half teaspoonful of
salt to each pint Jar and enough boil
ing broth to cover the meat. Adjust
the rubber rings and covers and seal
the Jars.
Place the hot-packed Jars immedi
ately In a pressure canner, and proc
ess for one hour at 15 pounds pres
sure, or 250 degrees Fahrenheit. Be
gin to count time when the pressure
gnuge registers 15 pounds, not before.
When the hour is up, allow the can
ner to cool until the gauge registers
zero before opening the pet cock.

Corn meal Is good In a number of
different hot breads and muffins. Some
are made with sour milk and some
with sw eet; some are baked In sheets
and others in gem pans. The char
acteristic flavor of the corn meal Is
present In all, and preference for one
or another kind is largely a prefer
ence for a particular texture. Here
are two good corn-meal recipes, one
for bread that is light and dry, the
other for a bread with a custardlike
consistency. Intended to be served
with a spoon and eaten with a fork.
