Poultry & eggs

Since chicken is now mass produced, and fairly cheap, its status has been greatly reduced. This saddens me. I was brought up thinking of chicken as something special and have never managed to get over thinking so; besides, I like chicken. And there are such wonderful ways to cook it, from the simple Spicy baked chicken to the elegant Chicken in a butter sauce and the very impressive Whole chicken baked in foil. If you are on a diet, you can eat Tandoori-style chicken which is cooked without fat, and, when you want to indulge yourself, you can dine on Mughlai chicken with almonds & sultanas.
