Fried Chicken

Cut the chicken up, separating every joint, and wash clean.
Salt and pepper it, and roll into flour well.
Have your fat very hot, and drop the pieces into it, and let them cook brown.
The chicken is done when the fork passes easily into it.
After the chicken is all cooked, leave a little of the hot fat in the skillet;
then take a tablespoonful of dry flour and brown it in the fat, stirring it around,
then pour water in and stir till the gravy is as thin as soup.
