“The Thais use a lot of birds in their cuisine including cockerels for things like gai yang – grilled chicken, but it’s mostly used in curries, soups or braises as the lengthy cooking process of these dishes allows the meat to become more tender over the slower cooking time.”
While cockerel meat might have dropped nasty of the Australian market, the meat of young male poultries continues to be preferred in numerous components of the globe, where it is treasured for its leanness and deepness of flavour. “Cockerel meat is delicious and usually has a more defined taste, richer, more depth, more intense than regular chickens,” claimsPotter “The meat is typically firmer; however, it has a silkiness to it.”
It calls for no unique therapy when preparing it in the house. “Cockerels can be cooked mostly the same as regular chickens. I tend to cook the cockerels slower and on a lower heat as it allows the flavour to develop and doesn’t toughen the texture of the bird,” she claims.
