RE: Chicken Math

So.. if bantams only count as 1/4 of a chicken, does that mean that seramas only count for 1/16 of a chicken? They are much smaller than regular bantams and all...

Did you say you haven't reached your limit for the city codes yet?

Anyone?

I haven't read ahead to see if anyone answered, and this is a total guess, since the original post was the first I'd heard of it too. But I'm thinking if you did like a baked potato and used the fork to check for done?, when the flesh was easy to stab.

I honestly have never tried turnips, but I slice carrots into sticks toss them in evoo or grapeseed oil & sprinkle with 2 parts salt 1 part pepper & garlic powder. Bake 425 until as done as you like them. I do about 30 min I think. I do all veggies this way, greenbeans, cauliflower, squash, okra. Anything that I find. I keep a big container of the salt, pepper garlic powder mix. Think I use that mix at least one time a day.

I do the same for carrots only in a small cast iron skillet on top of the stove and try and carmalize

at least one side of the carrots. I've had people tell me they hate carrots, that love them this way. One guy I work with said he hated carrots, but after I fixed them this way he bought a 2 lb bag and ate them all that way (in one day!!!!)

I cut any that a bigger than the rest, just so the pieces are about the same size. I just roast them at 325* till they are tender, not sure how long, maybe 1 1/2 hr. depends on the size.

The reason people don't like boiled turnips is because they are not prepared properly. Grandma always made the best not bitter turnips. Her trick was in the prep for boiling. She would taste a slice of each turnip and if it was "hot" she would add a tsp of sugar to the water. She would add a chicken boullion cube, pepper, a little onion powder or minced onion and a dash of garlic powder....and a spoonful of bacon fat. Her turnips were cubed about 3/4 inch pieces and boiled until tender. I fix mine the same way and have had men who never ate turnips, eat these.

Sometimes she would boil quartered turnips with quartered potatoes seasoned the same way and served with shredded cheese and crumbled bacon on top .

Here is 2 good examples of the split wing talked about in Ko Shamo. This is what GotGame was referring to when I posted pictures here while back

This was discussed recently on the Cochin thread. There were some good pictures posted. I'll have to find them.
Are split wings a flaw in all breeds? It sure is in Cochins.​
