I never heard that about beef either; interesting.
I agree about the toughness of older chickens, but would argue about the "not very tasty". Older"stewing hens", need to be cooked differently (stewed), but they make the best soups and stews. Younger birds haven't had much time to develop flavor, but conversely have also not had time to toughen up. Don't find too many stewing hens anymore. |
