Guinea-Fowl, Roast, Larded

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Truss the guinea-fowl like a pheasant if larded, or like a turkey if roasted plainly.

  2. Roast the bird at a brisk fire, basting it well.

  3. Shortly before serving, dredge it with a little flour and let it froth nicely.

  4. Serve with a little gravy in the dish and a tureen of the same, along with well-made bread sauce.
