To Boil Chicken, Lamb and Other Fresh Meat

Cover the meat with boiling water, let boil rapidly five minutes, then keep the water just below the boiling-point, or just "quivering" at one side of the saucepan, until the meat is tender.

When the meat is about half cooked, add a teaspoonful of salt for each quart of water.
