Citrus Glaze Mix 1/4 cup thawed, frozen orange juice concentrate, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, and 2 tablespoons honey until well blended. Brush the glaze over the hens during the last 15 to 20 minutes of roasting. Asian Accent Mix 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons chicken broth, and 1 teaspoon sesame oil.

Asked by Morgannn - Sat Oct 18 14:36:44 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. If you put the frozen hens into a bowl of cool water, it does not take too long for them to thaw. About an hour; give or take a few minutes. Be sure to leave the chicken in its water tight plastic bag, and avoid using hot water. Or you can thaw them in the fridge overnight. I wouldn't recommend thawing them in the microwave, tho.

Why has Welsh, Gaelic and in some instances Cornish survived, while others died ?
Q. Welsh, Gaelic and in some instances Cornish has survived, but why did the other Celtic languages died in Britain ?
Asked by __A_YAHOO_USER__ - Sun Nov 8 15:28:17 2009 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments

A. They were protected by mountains, by which I mean remoteness. Because this made travelling difficult, people remained in their own little pockets and spoke their own language. In the case of Scotland, the sea also formed a protective barrier, with Gaelic remaining a living language in the Outer Hebrides. Welsh survived more than the other Celtic languages because of the influence of religion. The translation of the Bible into Welsh by Bishop William Morgan and the preaching and hymn singing tradition had a great impact.

A. It's actually a game bird, but they're raised domestically to be sold in supermarkets. I can't tell the difference in flavor between them and chickens. The nice thing about them is that it's one per person, so it makes them easy and elegant for dinner parties. If you like chicken, you'll like it, don't sweat it.

Asked by adam_july86 - Mon Mar 13 19:17:50 2006 - - 8 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Unfreeze hens in fridge for a day. Clean off any little hairs left (usually by the joints). Soak in cold saltwater for 1/2 hour or so to finish bleeding the hens. Prepare any commercially sold stuffing mix that you like. Jazz the stuffing up with something, if you want, such as chopped walnuts, raisins - anything you think will go. Stuff hens with stuffing mix. Shake some cinnamon into your hands. Schmear the hens with the cinnamon. Sprinkle ground pepper conservatively onto hens, and add garlic powder (not garlic salt). Cover with tin foil and cook 40 minutes. Uncover and baste with: 1/4 C. apricot jelly mixed with 1-2 t. soy sauce and a T water. Finish cooking uncovered for 20 more minutes or until when you poke a fork… [cont.]

Asked by earwaxyness - Fri Nov 7 01:44:51 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Cornish hens are ridiculously expensive for the amount of meat you get. For the price of one of those, you can get a full-size chicken. You can just brush it will oil, sprinkle rock salt and pepper on it, and roast it. Two people can make two meals out of it, if they're not big eaters, and you have rice, potatoes, bread, or other starch.
