If available, a propane torch or blowtorch can be used to singe the remaining hair and scurf ([fig. 16]). Singeing removes most of the hair and allows small, light hairs to be seen. Use caution during singeing to prevent burning the skin. Shave the remaining hair and wash the carcass thoroughly. Continue with evisceration and splitting ([pages 24–35]).
