Opossum Recipe - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    opossum
    water
    salt to taste
    6 large sweet potatoes, peeled
    4 cowhorn pods red pepper
Preparation
    Catch an opossum; put it in a coop.
    Feed it baked sweet potatoes and cornbread for about a week.
    Next, kill it by breaking its neck.
    Skin it; remove entrails, cut off tail and ears and wash it good, inside and out.
    Another way to clean it is to dip it in water and roll it on oak ashes.
    Keep it damp.
    Rub it with lard until it gets real clean.
