INTRODUCTORY CHAPTERS,
TRUSSING.
Trussing Needles.
Common and untrained cooks are often deplorably ignorant of this
branch of their business, a knowledge of which is, nevertheless, quite
as essential to them as is that of boiling or roasting ; for without it
they cannot, by any possibility, serve up dinners of decently credit-
able appearance. We give such brief general directions for it as
our space will permit, and as our own observations enable us to
supply ; but it has been truly said, by a great authority in these
matters, that trussing cannot be “ taught by words ; ” we would,
therefore, recommend, that instead of relying on any written
instructions, persons who really desire thoroughly to understand the
subject, and to make themselves acquainted with the mode of entirely
preparing all varieties of game and poultry more especially for
table, in the very best manner, should apply for some practical lessons
to a first-rate poulterer ; or, if this cannot be done, that they should
endeavour to obtain from some well experienced and skilful cook the
instruction which they need.
