Cooking Poultry

Potatoes and turkey both are New World foods, and had not yet reached Europe.

Poultry in French is Volaille.

This can mean either extra food given in addition to normal daily rations or it can also be an additive to boost vitamin or mineral intake of the poultry such as a tonic added to their water supply.

Thawing a turkey in the refrigerator is the safest and best option, but it does take some time. Your refrigerator is probably only 10 - 12 degrees warmer than your freezer and a frozen turkey basically a big ice cube in a plastic bag. The USDA recommends 4 to 5 hours for every pound of frozen turkey. For a 16 to 20 pound turkey that is 4 to 5 DAYS!

But if you don't have the time to thaw a turkey in this manner you can do this:

Keep your turkey in its original plastic packaging.

Keep your turkey in the refrigerator (don't set it out on the counter.)

The day before your cook time place the turkey in a large pail or in the sink and run cold (not hot) water over the turkey, as cold as you can get it.

It's best to keep the turkey submerged in water, but it is very important to keep the water circulating as the turkey defrosts. Adjust the water coming in so that it replaces the water around the turkey every 30 minutes or so. Hard to gauge, but you don't need to turn the water on full blast.

Test the thawing by pressing on the turkey. The entire process depends on the size of the bird, but five or six hours should be enough. The USDA recommends 30 minutes per pound and cooking the bird immediately. But you know what fussbudgets those folks are.

After you have completed the thaw process remove the bird from the plastic and feel around in the cavity for frozen sections. Wash the bird and place it in the refrigerator until time to cook.

Unless you have chickens in the backyard or buy a live chicken to be killed for your table, you will most probably never "dress" it. Dressing means to remove the feathers, head, entrails etc. Obviously, all poultry sold in supermarkets is already dressed. From a recipe standpoint, you should check the poultry for any remaining feathers, rinse the bird and truss if you wish.

about 15 minutes.

Chicken poultry refers to domesticated birds, primarily chickens, raised for their meat and eggs. Poultry farming encompasses the breeding, raising, and management of these birds, which include not only chickens but also ducks, turkeys, and geese. Chicken is one of the most widely consumed sources of protein globally, and poultry farming plays a significant role in the agricultural industry. Additionally, chicken poultry is known for its versatility in cuisine and its economic importance in many countries.

The typical weight range of a poultry carcass varies by species. For instance, a whole chicken generally weighs between 3 to 6 pounds, while turkeys can range from 10 to 30 pounds or more, depending on age and breed. Ducks usually weigh around 4 to 8 pounds, while geese can weigh between 10 to 20 pounds. These weights can fluctuate based on factors such as farming practices and feed.

After the bird is dispatched, yes. It is a good idea to hang the bird to drain the remaining blood.

Newcastle disease is a contagious viral infection causing a respiratory nervous disorder. The disease is highly contagious and there is no treatment for this disease once it starts. All birds in the flock usually become infected within three to four days. The virus is transmitted by contaminated equipment, clothing and shoes. The most frequent signs observed are nasal discharge, excess mucous in the trachea and cloudy eyes. The disease in young chickens begins with difficult breathing, gasping and sneezing. Mortality may vary from zero to total loss of the flock. Vaccination of healthy birds is practiced widely and medicated feeds are often the small farms only defense. The vaccine B1 and LaSota can be administered via drops into the nostril or eye, and can be added to the drinking water of day old birds along with a vitamin tonic. "Organically" raised birds are most often the victims as this method of farming avoids all medications and vaccines. Newcastle cannot be differentiated from infectious bronchitis and some other respiratory diseases without laboratory testing.

It depends if your Vindaloo recipe is the traditional curry, that does not contain potatoes, or if it is the recipe that does call for potatoes to be added. If the potatoes have not been added, a simple white rice can be served with it. If the potatoes are already added, the you wouldn't need to add another starch, but you could if you so desired.

CAN be, and CAN SAFELY be, are two entirely different subjects.

Using paper towels to wipe up meat and poultry juices is important for food safety because they are disposable and help prevent cross-contamination. Unlike cloth towels, which can harbor bacteria even after washing, paper towels can be discarded after use, reducing the risk of spreading harmful pathogens. Additionally, paper towels are highly absorbent, making them effective for quickly soaking up liquids and ensuring a clean surface.

It depends, poultry skin has a very high amount of fat and calories. and is most often deep fried.

Yes, It does take longer to cook more than one chicken because you have more things to heat up in the oven there for it takes longer.

There are three convenient ways to defrost frozen meat, in the refrigerator, in moving water, or in the microwave.

The best (from the safety point of view) is in the refrigerator. But size is important as well. If you have a small hamburger patty the microwave can work well, but the microwave has a tendency to cook outer portions of meat before the inner portions are defrosted. A pound of ground round (hamburger meat) can be defrosted in the microwave if you use the defrost setting and remove defrosted meat as you go. And then cook immediately.

Defrosting in water is reasonable if you can put your frozen food in a waterproof plastic bag with the air pressed out and place it in a pot and keep a stream of cold water running through the pot. You have to watch this process and don't let defrosted meat linger in the pot. Make use of your defrosted meat immediately.

If you have the time or your defrosting job is larger than a pound, refrigerator defrosting is the safest and easiest; just plan ahead.

A poultry product, in mainstream supermarkets, is either chicken, or turkey products, which can be sold whole, or in parts, breadded, pre-cooked, or even frozen.
