5 - Poultry
2. The word poultry refers to all
domesticated birds raised for
their meat. Although
chickens are the most
popular poultry consumed,
other species include
turkeys, ducks, geese, guinea
fowls, and pigeons (squabs).
8. The composition of poultry (muscle tissue, connective
tissue, etc.) is similar to that of other meat.

9. Pigments
Turkeys and chickens have
both white and dark meat,
the lightness or darkness
depending on the amount
of myoglobin content in the
muscle.
Turkey breast
Turkey leg
10. Chicken and turkey breasts are more white because
both these types of birds do almost no flying, and
their meat (muscles) in these areas thus contains
much less myoglobin. Wild birds such as ducks have
darker breast meat because they actually use the
muscles for flying.
Duck breast
12. Type refers to whether it is fresh, frozen, cooked,
sliced, canned, or dehydrated.
Style describes the degree to which it has been
cleaned or processed, that is, live, dressed,
ready-to-cook, or convenience categories.
13. Dressed
Dressed birds are those
that have had only the
blood, feathers, and craw
removed. The craw or
crop is the pouch-like
gullet of a bird where food
is stored and softened. https://www.thehappychickencoop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/Chicken-Digestive-System.png
17. Poultry can be prepared in many ways:
โขDry heat methods (roasting, baking, broiling,
grilling, and frying)
โขMoist heat methods (braising, stewing,
poaching)
18. Cutting up

1. With chicken breast
side up, pull each leg
away from body, then
slice through skin
between breast and
drumstick. Tip: use a
sharp Chefโs knife.

2. Turn chicken on its
side. Bend each leg
back until thighbone
pops out of its socket.
Cut through joint and
skin to detach leg
completely.

4. Lift up chicken and
cut downward through
rib cage and then
shoulder joints to
separate breast from
back.

5. Place breast skin side
down. Split center
bone using a
chopping motion, then
slice through meat
and skin to separate
into 2 pieces.

6. To cut breast halves
into quarters, turn
each skin side up and
cut in half diagonally
through bone.

7. To divide the legs,
turn each skin side
down and cut through
joints (along white fat
line) to separate thigh
from drumstick.
25. Preparation safety tips
Freezing will largely protect against bacterial
growth while the poultry is frozen, but
precautions should be taken during and after
thawing, when any bacteria that are present
may begin to grow.
26. The refrigerator is the best place to thaw frozen
birds, and its use requires planning ahead. It
takes about a day for a 3ยฝ-pound chicken and
1 to 5 days for a turkey to defrost, depending on
its weight.
27. Stuffing
For food safety reasons, the USDA
recommends that stuffing be prepared and
cooked separately.
Pre-stuffed frozen poultry should never be
thawed, but should be prepared, according to
package directions, directly from the frozen
state.
28. The stuffing should be removed from leftover
cooked poultry before the bird is refrigerated or
frozen.
29. Changes during preparation
Properly prepared poultry is tender and juicy,
but overcooking causes the flesh to become
dry, tough, and stringy.
30. The skin of any poultry, which is primarily fat,
can be removed before or after preparation, but
if it is left on, it does contribute to flavor and
juiciness.
Fat that naturally melts off the bird during
heating can be used to baste the poultry or to
create sauces.
31. Reheated poultry, especially turkey, has a
characteristic warmed-over flavor caused by the
breakdown of fat.
Microwave reheating results in less of this
warmed-over flavor than reheating using
conventional methods.
32. Determining doneness
Poultry should always be heated until well done
to enhance flavor and to minimize the risk of
foodborne bacterial illnesses. Doneness may be
determined by internal temperature, color
changes, and/or touch and time/weight tables.
33. Internal Temperature
The best way to check poultry for doneness is
to use a meat thermometer. It should be
inserted into the thickest part of the breast,
although it can also be inserted into the inner
thigh. In either case it should not touch bone or
fat. Poultry is sufficiently cooked when the
internal temperature reaches a minimum of
165ยฐF (74ยฐC) for at least 15 seconds.
34. Color change
When the skin on oven-roasted chicken or
turkey reaches a golden brown color, it is time
to test for doneness. The juices coming out of
the bird should have turned from pink to clear,
and a bit of bone should be showing on the tip
of the legs.
35. When a turkey is roasted
breast side up, the breast
should be covered with
metal foil or a bit of
cooking oil to keep the
breast from over-browning
or burning. The foil should
be removed 45 minutes to
an hour before the end of
heating to allow for final
browning.
36. Touch
When pressed firmly with one or two fingers,
the well-done birdโs flesh will feel firm, not soft.
White meat may be firmer than dark meat, in
part because certain proteins have a higher gel-
forming ability in white muscle than they do in
the dark muscles.
38. Storage of poultry
Fresh poultry will keep in the refrigerator for up
to 3 days, while frozen poultry will keep in the
freezer for 6 to 12 months. All prepared foods
should be refrigerated in covered containers
and guarded against Salmonella.
