The book gives 8 egg yolks and 4 whites, with as much grated bread as needed; it gives no other amounts. We use half.

Method

5 soļi
  1. Melt the butter in a small pan, add the parsley and fry it gently for 1–2 minutes, until it darkens and smells fragrant. Don't let it brown. Leave to cool.
  2. Beat the yolks and whites with the mace, salt and pepper. Stir in the parsley butter, then the breadcrumbs, a handful at a time, until you have a soft, moist mixture that just holds its shape.
  3. Heat the oven to 200 °C (180 °C fan). Pat the chickens dry and spoon the stuffing loosely into the cavities; it swells as the egg sets. Close the openings with a skewer or cocktail sticks. Bake any extra stuffing in a small buttered dish for the last 25–30 minutes.
  4. Rub the chickens with the soft butter and salt and roast them for 1–1¼ hours (small) or about 1½ hours (large), basting once or twice, until the juices run clear, the thigh reads 75 °C and the centre of the stuffing at least 74 °C.
  5. Rest for 10 minutes, then spoon out the stuffing and carve.

Notes

What the book says vs. what we added

the book fries chopped parsley in melted butter, lets it cool, adds 8 egg yolks and the whites of 4 eggs, and mixes in mace and as much grated white bread as needed. With this, chickens are stuffed for roasting. The salt, the amounts of butter and bread, the oven and all times are ours.

Variant

the book prints this as "another stuffing" after the veal forcemeat in 04-001, but it has no meat. It is a rich, yellow bread stuffing bound with egg.

Same stuffing in chapter 2

02-064 uses exactly this mixture for a veal breast, pushed under the skin, and boils the breast.

Food safety

a stuffing with raw egg inside a bird heats slowly. Stuff loosely, just before roasting, and check the centre of the stuffing with a thermometer.
