Saturday 10 November
Saturday is a good day to buy a
chicken at Bare's and throw it into a hot oven that evening.
Of course, when Dora is lurking
around (and she does get into an amazing array of around), you must take
protective measures for the bird.
Our recipe was what we've been
doing lately, but it had its downside. The vedge, which in this case was
shallots, parsnips, potatoes, carrots, and garden turnips, cooks quicker than
the bird and has a tendency to burn.
Also, if you use the deep roaster, the chicken doesn't brown much where
it's shielded by the high sides of the pan.
Maybe we should go back to our old
recipe and start roasting the chicken at 350º until almost done, then turning
up the heat to 425º to brown the skin.
Oh, and stuffing a lemon up the bird's butt.
