English term or phrase: comish hen
Reč je zapravo o uputstvu za upotrebu turbo rerne. U jednom delu uputstva nalazi se tabela sa objašnjenjem koliko dugo traje pripremanje određenih jela u toj rerni. Na tom spisku se između ostalog pominje termin "comish hen". Ima li iko ideju šta bi to moglo biti?

mlada piletina
Explanation:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornish_game_hen
A Cornish game hen, also sometimes called a Cornish hen, poussin, Rock Cornish hen, or simply Rock Cornish, is a young chicken sold whole. Despite the name, it is not a game bird, but actually a typical chicken that is slaughtered at a young age and therefore is smaller in size. Though the bird is called a "hen," it can be either male or female.
...
The U.S. Department of Agriculture describes the Rock Cornish game hen or Cornish game hen as a young immature chicken (usually 5 to 6 weeks of age), weighing not more than 2 pounds ready-to-cook weight, which was prepared from a Cornish chicken or the progeny of a Cornish chicken crossed with another breed of chicken.

nije vrsta peradi, već mladi pilići kada dosegnu težinu 300 do 500 grama, ponekad i 200 - 600 gr. Ime im potječe od doba kada su se na sjeveru Njemačke zbog hladnoće pilići unosili u kuće pa su zbog malo kretanja i dovoljno hrane brzo narasli i bivali zaklani, često samo pijetlovi. Franc. poussin.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornish_(chicken)
The Cornish, known as the Indian Game in its native country of England, is a breed of chicken originating in the county of Cornwall. Cornish chickens, as well as crosses of Cornishes, are the most-used breed in the chicken meat industry.[1] They are heavy, muscular birds that lay eggs poorly, and require substantial amounts of feed.

Po meni nije toliko bitno o kojoj se rasi kokošaka radi, već bih rekla da je bitno da se radi o mladoj piletini jer je vreme potrebno da bi se ona spremila u rerni kraće nego za pripremu odrasle kokoške.

cornish hen


Explanation:
It's quite simple really, because it's CORNISH (as in from Cornwall, UK), not COMISH, which doesn't make much sense. Lower case letters "rn" are often misread as "m".
