I'm glad you twigged that the post was aimed at you - even though I didn't type
your name in the TO: line. I realised that after I uploaded the packet.

I don't wanna adjust. It would be nicer for me if the temperatures dipped below
freezing just enough to croak all the bug-nasties and trigger the cycles of
those beneficial plants which need a freezing in their life cycle. Then go back
to lows of 40øF/4øC until spring and warmer temps.

      1 md Onion; fine chopped
      8 oz Mushrooms; fine chopped
      2 tb Butter; divided
      1 c  Chicken broth; divided

           - lightly toasted
      1 c  Bread crumbs; toast lightly
    1/8 ts (ea) Salt & ground pepper
 
  Preheat oven to 400øF. Rinse the chicken under cold
  running water; drain. Salt and pepper inside of
  chicken cavity. Melt 1 tablespoon butter and add 1/4
  teaspoon each of cinnamon,cumin and coriander. Brush
  mixture over chicken. Tie up legs securely with
  butcher’s string, set chicken on rack set into
  roasting pan and add 1/2 cup chicken broth. Roast for
  30 minutes.
   
  While chicken is roasting, in a large saucepan over
  medium heat melt 1 tablespoon butter. Stir in onion
  and saute for 5 minutes, until translucent. Stir in
  remaining spices and let them cook for about 1 minute,
  until aroma is released. Add the mushrooms, parsnips
  and carrots; cook until all vegetables are tender and
  any excess liquid had evaporated, about 6 minutes.
  Remove from heat and stir in hazelnuts, bread crumbs
  and remaining chicken broth; add salt and pepper.
  Place in ceramic or glass casserole dish.
   
  Reduce oven temperature to 350øF and continue to roast
  chicken for another hour and 15 minutes, until meat
  thermometer registers 180øF when inserted between thigh
  and breast. Place stuffing in oven to cook during last
  half hour of roasting. Check the roasting pan
  periodically as the chicken cooks; if pan becomes dry,
  add water, several tablespoons at a time. When done,
  remove the chicken to a serving platter and cover with
  foil.
   
  Skim the fat off the juices left in roasting pan. Set
  pan over low heat on hot plate, add sherry, stirring
  to scrape off any bits of chicken stuck to the pan.
  Stir in flour to slightly thicken; simmering for about
  1 minute. Pour the pan juices into a gravy boat or
  small pitcher. Uncover chicken; remove string from
  legs; carve and serve with gravy and stuffing.

  Makes 6 servings.
