Beau's notes:

* Use vinegar"which has been used tokeep asupplyofbird's-eye
peppers."

* Afterdiscardingchicken spurs, wash handswith verywarmwater and
Dialsoap (and follow up with isopropylalcohol rinse); wash all utensils
with bleach. (One should alwaysregardchickens,even ifprocessed in USA
or inspected byUSDA,asunclean!USDAinspectors arenotoriouslyless
than thorough, and U.S.packing houses often neglect basic hygienicrules
in workingwith chickens, especiallyin dealing with theirentrails, waste
productsun-excreted, etc. And one shouldnot expect muchbetterfrom
out-of-countrychickens.)
