Excellent! It's a good thing to do with poussins too, and a way to make one bird feed two people (or one hungrier person).
I've tried it with a duck, with poor results. This could, however, have been due to my incompetence.
I'd love to try it with a turkey...
Well I sharpened my boning knife, pulled out a Cornish game hen and defrosted it, put together a sausage and apple stuffing, tuned into Pepin's video and that was the end of that. My poor hen had so many tears in the skin that it would not have wrapped very much at all! I looked back at the package and sure enough it was a utility grade. Don't know where my head was when I was shopping. So on to Plan B for this little, tiny, imperfect bird.
