Do you roast chicken?
If so:
a. Take a look at this recipe
b. Take a look at this way of trussing the chicken
UPDATE: In the comments Scott Feldstein just posted this video of Thomas Keller roasting a chicken, and I thought anyone reading the post should see the video. I knew the trick about taking out the wishbone, though I hadn’t though of then carving the chicken as shown, but the thing I love is how he trusses the chicken with a string: a wonderful technique, obviously effective, and (like installing software on the Mac) totally simple once someone shows you how, totally opaque otherwise.

I want to try this method.

Oh, my: that does look good. And that’s a terrific way of trussing a chicken. I always struggled with it, and this way is so effective, easy, and simple once you know it.
Many thanks.
