| On How to Carve
! Christmas Turkey
Gather round ye masters of the
Christmas dinner table. Uncle Sam
I will teach you a lesson:
The government has issued an at
, ficial bulletin on the proper teck
! nique for carving the Christmas tur
j key.
I The bulletin rules on such impor
j tant problems as whether the fa
ther should stand or sit while do
ing the honors and the position of the
j turkey on the platter. All you have
to do is read this, and carving the
j festive bird will be a lead-pipe cinch.
“The turkey rides on the platter
back down," says the bureau of
I home economics. “The first prob
~Jke mofC important?
I/L ruh is io keep fa
lem is father’s: Should he stand or
sit while carving?”
j There are two schools of thought
on this subject, and the government
I grants father his constitutional
rights to do as he pleases. But it
is suggested, after deliberation, that
a short person had best stand and a
tall person should sit for the most
effective work. Are you short or
tall?
The next problem, says the bulle
tin, is the point of attack. It is
here that many a head of a house,
the bureau believes, has lost the
Christmas spirit through ignorance
or awkwardness—or just plain stub
bornness.
Only a few simple rules need be
followed. The most important, of
course, is to keep the bird on the
platter, because it’s rather difficult
to work on the floor. Also, the bu
?text prvhlems p-\
is
reau estimates, a bird on the plat
ter is worth two on the tablecloth.
“First,” the bureau said, “remove
the leg from the body by grasping
it in your left hand (but what if
you’re left handed?) and cutting
straight down to the hip joint. Re
move the wings and the other leg.
“Then place the fork squarely
across the breastbone toward the
end of the keel, to anchor the bird
while you carve the breast in slices;
using a slightly sawing motion.”
If you don’t like the shape of your
turkey, or the distribution of dark
and white meat, well—why not have
your wife carve in the first place?
