Icel<strong>an</strong>dic Chicken<br />
Icel<strong>an</strong>dic p. 218 (Good)<br />
One shall cut a young chicken in two <strong>an</strong>d<br />
wrap about it whole leaves of salvia, <strong>an</strong>d cut up<br />
in it bacon <strong>an</strong>d add salt <strong>to</strong> suit the taste. Then<br />
cover that with dough <strong>an</strong>d bake like bread in the<br />
oven.<br />
5 c flour ½ lb bacon<br />
about 1 ¾ c water 3 lb chicken<br />
fresh sage leaves <strong>to</strong> cover<br />
(or 3 T dried sage)<br />
Make a stiff dough by kneading <strong>to</strong>gether<br />
flour <strong>an</strong>d water. Roll it out. Cover the dough<br />
with sage leaves <strong>an</strong>d the sage leaves with<br />
strips of bacon. Cut chicken in half <strong>an</strong>d wrap<br />
each half chicken in the dough, sealing it. You<br />
now have two packages which contain,<br />
starting at the outside, dough, sage, bacon,<br />
chicken. Put them in the oven <strong>an</strong>d bake like<br />
bread (325° for 2 hours). We find the bacon<br />
adds salt enough.<br />
The part of the bread at the bot<strong>to</strong>m is<br />
particularly good, because of the bacon fat<br />
<strong>an</strong>d chicken fat. You may w<strong>an</strong>t <strong>to</strong> turn the<br />
loaves once or twice or baste the <strong>to</strong>p with the<br />
drippings.<br />
