Cooking aboard or outdoors

Eat what you like, Fosty, and so will I.

The meat, or more precisely, the fat of fowl is a good breeding medium for bacteria and viruses. In the laboratory, biologists use petre dishes containing a chicken fat medium, to grow cultures.

But this same affinity for bacteria and viruses helps inside our bodies when we eat it.

Chicken soup, "jewish penicillin", coagulates around and isolates cold virus and allows the body to flush the virus from the system.

I imagine fat from other fowl, like turkey, has similar effect.

Some claim dinosaurs are still with us, mutated into birds. Both birds and reptiles lay eggs.

In the carribean, soup made from iguanas is given to sick people. It is a very uplifting broth. I've only eaten it as a healthy person, but you can literally feel the energy flow into your body. I get the same sensation from eating chicken or turkey soup. The iguana soup is more potent though!

cheers

 

Hmmmmmmm-
My ma- the polish peasant woman, used to pick meat from what was left after we had roasted chicken or turkey.
We then would throw the bones in water and boil it down to make stock- what ever meat left on the bones goes into the stock.
Pull out the bones and add the picked meat, potatoes, carrots, onions, peas, salt & pepper.

Same is done with ham hocks beef bones etc.

I haven't spent any time in third world countries, but I did visit back woods Chile for a few months. There the chickens were purchased from market unrefrigerated. Our local cook would bring them back to the boat and rub lime on the skin if they were a little off- they sat the day till dinner then were thrown in the pot. None of us were ever sick.

I would look askance at the various body parts floating in the bowl and always tried to pick the one with nothing objectionable showing above the surface- Most times my first spoonful would come up with a beak or foot...

Don't quote me but I understand that salmonellae is much more prevalent in chickens raised in the large houses so common now- all should be treated with care in the kitchen.

 

Even salmonellae has it's uses. It weakens muscles. One of my children was born wall-eyed. Glasses helped focus both eyes ahead, but at age 12, an opthamologist (eye surgeon) performed an in the office miracle of modern medicine.

He prepared two needles, one with antibiotic, the other with salmonella bacteria.
He injected the salmonella in the overly strong eye muscle causing the eye to look sideways, and then promptly inserted the antibiotic needle. We watched as the eye swiveled to the front, and precisely at the right second he injected the antibiotic and killed the salmonella. NO MORE GLASSES! No more wall-eye!
I'm very gratefull, and my daughter recieving the treatment MORE gratefull!

 

Im America your probably void of Bird flu epidemic information . When you do you will not eat the dirtiest bit of the bird.

You could not give chicken away during the last one 3-4 years ago. Pork went through the roof.

Chicken breeding is big business, profits are needed, chickens are fed on rubbish including thier own offle. The bird is meat only.

Any way thats the advise given during the last warning.

 

My wifes and my favorite part is the wings. I have always ordered wings in chicken joints all over the world. Many, many, times I was informed they had no wings. Bet they didn't have a local problem with cats either!

 

As a wee lad, I was backpacking in the deeps of the Maine woods.
I must have scared off the lion as I came upon a grouse still bleeding out with no head lying neat on the trail. I tossed him in the pack and grilled over the fire that night.

Frosty- what is the "the dirtiest bit of the bird"?

Cleaned of offal the critters are not different than any other eh?
So many bones and flesh... what's not to like?

 

They have 3 legged chickens in Thailand, no one knows how they taste as no one has been able to catch one.

Wings ---thats equivalent to our hands and fingers.

Have you ever plucked a Pheasant, its not a pleasant job. But Bird flu is in feathers and feces and to a lesser extent the bone. But irrational fear branded the whole bird inedible.

The meat if cooked correctly is fine on a bird flu carrier.

By the way feces means you wash eggs,------ very carefully.

Sanitation and cleanliness becomes second nature after a while, you never go back.

I wash my hands the minute I walk in the house . If I forget and pick up the remote the missus goes ballistic.

We use antiseptic hand wash bought at the Chemists. Alcohol is the stuff you clean you hands with entering the supermarket Tescos.

Cant be too clean.

Its hot here an needs these precautions, you have hot places in Australia and USA.

 

The common cold is a virus it can NOT be cured by Penacilin -- or any other medicine you can think of. Virus is not a bacteria--geez.

 

Chicken soup, "jewish penicillin", ( chicken fat)coagulates around and isolates cold virus and allows the body to flush the virus from the system.

READ AGAIN FROSTY, CHEEZE!

Chicken soup is CALLED jewish penicillin. Along with anthistamines and aspirin for symptoms easing, and vitamin C for immune system, and lots of fluids, no other cure for the common cold is currently known. The chicken soup does work. I neglected to write chicken fat in the sentence. Figured you'd get it from previous sentences.

"In the laboratory, biologists use petre dishes containing a chicken fat medium, to grow cultures.

But this same affinity for bacteria and viruses helps inside our bodies when we eat it."

One of my recipes has been published in this months issue of cruising helmsman.

I'm rather pleased with myself as I scored a third of a page, a full column.

 

Congratulations!
