Plucking a chicken - how do I get the wing feathers off?

Fifitrix · « **on:** February 26, 2009, 20:34 »

Me again!

So I've plucked and gutted the chicken, an experience which was like something out of a gastly horror film.

But I can't get the wing feathers off. Any tips?

I've poured very hot water on them at skin level (it was tyrkey not a chicken but I guess it must be similar) and that made them easier to pull out.

I used pliers on the tough ones
