Duck recipes

I have made a Thanksgiving goose every year for at least 15 years. I have steadily gained on making the perfect bird but I finally found the greatest recipe ever in Cook's Magazine. The divine part of this approach to cooking the goose is that it employs some of the eastern method of drying the skin which is used in Peking Duck. The skin simply drops all its fat and leaves a crispy, dry, delectable skin that folks fight over! No more rubbery, yucky goose skin full of fat!

A rich and flavorful cognac mushroom sauce that is the perfect accompaniment to elevate your special occasion meals. This exquisite sauce pairs wonderfully with tender veal chops, succulent roast duck, or a golden roast goose, adding a touch of elegance to your dining experience.

Mapleleaf roast turkey... it's a big yum fest with this Thanksgiving turkey. The crispy browned skin is like Canadian Peking duck. Roasted and glazed with a reduction of maple syrup and apple cider does the trick. It's like a Canadian recipe eh?

Paperbark smoked duck, garnished with mushrooms and finished with Illawarra Plum Sauce.

Mouth watering citrus chicken liver risotto.

There are hundreds versions of this very Polish soup. Here you have an original proposition of mine. I used to cook it on the base of my favorite duck and chicken stock. The cream is a must to create wonderful pink color. Optionally you may add a quarter or a half of hard boiled egg to your bowl. By the way, I change my recipe sometimes, for instance by adding dried California prunes instead of sugar, or by adding some white vinegar instead of lemon juice.

Try this snack for your next party. Easy and fun. This is an inexpensive recipe. They are shaped like ducks.

Homemade duck stock is as delicious as any stock you make by yourself, it may take some time, but when you taste it, you will feel it's well worth the effort.

When I was little my mom and dad had lots of parties especially at the holidays. With upwards of 70 people the easiest thing to serve was punch. This is Mom's concoction. The guys love it too. See Dreamsicle Punch too.
