Broiled Pigeons or Squabs

Marion Harland.

Young pigeons or "squabs" are rightly esteemed a great delicacy. They are cleaned, washed, and dried carefully with a clean cloth; then split down the back, and broiled like chickens. Season with pepper and salt, and butter liberally in dishing them. They are in great request in a convalescent's room, being peculiarly savory and nourishing.
