Abstract
In a method for separating abdominal fat from abdominal skin of a slaughtered bird, a supporting surface is positioned against at least a part of that side of the abdominal skin which is remote from the abdominal fat. At least a section of the abdominal fat is scraped off the abdominal skin with the aid of a movable scraper member. The movement of the scraper member is directed substantially parallel to the supporting surface. The supporting surface forms part of a flat plate. The scraper member comprises a bracket, a claw or a body provided with a scraping edge.
