As long as you could catch a man and drop him into an oubliette, or pull him out a few inches longer by machinery, or put a hot iron through his tongue, or make him climb up a ladder and sit on a board at the top of a stake so that he should be slowly broiled by the fire kindled round it, there was some sense in these words; they led to something.
While they packed their "Snap-sacks" with flour, chocolate, canisters of powder, beads, and whittles for the Indians, their slaves "struck a plentiful Dish of Fish" for them, which they presently broiled, and ate for their breakfasts. Some of the men scouted on ahead for a mile or two, and then returned with the news that there were no immediate dangers in front of them.
All the dear old cooks are getting ready for us rolls and waffles and broiled chicken and poached eggs and coffee and all the ladies in muslin and ribbons are putting flowers on the table and saying, 'The Army of the Valley is coming home! Isn't that a Sunday morning breakfast worth waiting for? The sooner we whip Banks the sooner we'll be eating it." "All right. All right," said the men.
Then I got me a piece of the goat’s flesh and broiled it on the coals, but could eat very little. I walked about, but was very weak, and withal very sad and heavy-hearted under a sense of my miserable condition, dreading, the return of my distemper the next day.
"'Bless you, miss, said the man, trying to smile in a way that almost made me cry, 'I'm as handy as a woman 'bout a kitchen; and he soon proved that he was handier than I could have been, for in a few minutes he pulled up from the well a pail, took out a dressed chicken, and broiled it to perfection.
"What can it be?" "Fishy smell! So there is." "Did you get any mackerel from the store yesterday?" "None." "Perhaps Hannah ordered some?" "No. I had a ham sent home, and told her to have a slice of that broiled for breakfast." "I don't know what to make of it. Every now and then that same smell comes up through the register particularly in the morning.
The fire and the broiled venison renewed them; and even the snow offered something by way of compensation, for Haig's journey on the freshly constructed drag was smoother over the snow than it had been in the first instance over the stone-littered earth.
Fish, and broiled kidneys were on the table; a ham, and a brawn, and a glazed tongue on the sideboard. Mrs. Day always drank coffee at her breakfast, Deleah liked cocoa, the rest took tea; all three were served. Mrs. Day surveyed these signs of comfort and luxury with a numb feeling at her heart. All this, and such as this, would have to go. How would the children endure life without it.
Invalids and gourmets may be indulged with boiled ham, broiled over live coals. Slice very thin, lay for half a minute upon a shovel of glowing fresh coals, take up in a very hot dish, butter liberally, dust with pepper and serve very hot. To frizzle ham slice as thin as possible in tiny bits, and toss the bits till curly-crisp in blazing hot butter. Excellent as an appetizer or to raise a thirst.
In serving, separate the legs and wings at the joints, then separate the breast from the lower part, and divide the breast lengthwise and crosswise. Carving-scissors are convenient for cutting any kind of broiled game or poultry. Turkeys should be carefully trussed. The wings and thighs should be brought close to the body and kept in position by skewers.
