Editing Engastration

A cooking method by which the cook stuffs the remains of one animal into another animal.

Engastration is a cooking technique in which the remains of one animal are stuffed into another animal. The method supposedly originated during the Middle Ages.[1] Among the dishes made using the method is turducken, which involves placing chicken meat within a duck carcass within a turkey.[2] Some foods created using engastration have stuffing between each layer.[3] The carcasses are normally deboned before being placed together.
