Pull the stomach and intestines outward and cut through the diaphragm ([fig. 49]). This is the thin sheet of muscle and white connective tissue that separates the stomach and intestines from the lungs and heart. Pull outward on the lungs and heart and cut down each side of the windpipe, severing its attachment at the head ([fig. 50]). To separate the heart from the lungs, cut across its top ([fig. 51]). The heart should be split open to allow thorough washing. Wash the heart and liver thoroughly and put them in ice or ice water.
