Steps:
- Wash the goose thoroughly and pat dry with paper towels. Let the goose sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, mix together the allspice, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, salt and pepper in a small bowl and set aside to make a spice rub.
- Remove any lumps of visible fat from the cavity of the goose, and render the goose fat in a skillet over medium heat until the fat is liquid and the remaining bits are crisp and brown, about 15 minutes. Reserve 3 tablespoons of goose fat and save the rest for another use, or discard.
- Working in batches if necessary, fry the sliced apples in the reserved goose fat in a large skillet over medium heat until the apple slices are browned, about 10 minutes per batch. Remove the browned apple slices to a large mixing bowl, let cool slightly, and sprinkle with the Calvados and 2 teaspoons of cinnamon. Mix lightly to combine.
- With the point of a sharp knife, prick the entire skin of the goose, being careful not to cut into the meat. Rub the exterior of the goose well with the spice rub, massaging the spices into the skin.
- Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Spoon the apple stuffing lightly into the cavity of the goose, and lay it on a large sheet of aluminum foil big enough to wrap over the entire goose. Wrap the goose in the foil, seal the edges, and make a 1/2-inch hole in the bottom of the foil packet to allow the fat from the goose to drain. Place the bird breast side up, on a rack set into a large baking pan, and roast the goose in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about an hour and a half. Peel the foil back from the breast meat and roast for another 45 minutes until the skin browns, basting once or twice to prevent burning. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C).
- Remove the goose from the oven, cover with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area 10 to 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Remove excess fat from goose.
- Heat giblets, water, sliced onion and 3/4 teaspoon salt to boiling in 1-quart saucepan; reduce heat. Cover and simmer about 1 hour or until giblets are tender. Strain broth; cover and refrigerate. Remove meat from neck and finely chop with giblets. Toss giblets and remaining ingredients except the flour in large bowl.
- Heat oven to 350°F. Fill wishbone area of goose with stuffing first. Fasten neck skin to back with skewer. Fold wings across back with tips touching. Fill body cavity lightly. (Do not pack--stuffing will expand while cooking.) Fasten opening with skewers, and lace with string. Pierce skin all over with fork.
- Place goose, breast side up, on rack in shallow roasting pan. Insert meat thermometer so tip is in thickest part of inside thigh muscle and does not touch bone.
- Roast uncovered 3 to 3 1/2 hours (if necessary, place tent of aluminum foil loosely over goose during last hour to prevent excessive browning), removing excess fat from pan occasionally, until thermometer reads 180°F and juice of goose is no longer pink when center of thigh is cut. The center of the stuffing should be 165°F. Place goose on heated platter. Let stand 15 minutes for easier carving.
- Pour drippings from pan into bowl; skim off fat. Return 1/4 cup drippings to pan (discard remaining drippings.) Stir in flour. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until smooth and bubbly; remove from heat.
- Add enough water to reserved broth, if necessary, to measure 2 cups. Stir into flour mixture. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute. Serve goose with apple stuffing and gravy.

Steps:
- Make sure you have a good-sized roasting tin to fit the goose and a grid to place under it. Preheat the oven 425 degrees F. You can make the stuffing in advance.
- Soak the prunes in hot tea (Earl Grey) until soft, stone them and drain, or get pre-stoned ones - easier. Place prunes, vermouth and stock in a saucepan, bring to the boil, then simmer for ten minutes until tender. Strain but reserve the liquid.
- Melt the butter in a little pan and gently fry the shallots and liver for a couple of minutes, stirring all the while. Place in a mixing-bowl which will hold all the ingredients. Boil the port in the same pan until reduced to two tablespoons, scrape round the sides and add to the liver mixture. Beat the pate, bread crumbs, allspice and thyme together and combine thoroughly with the rest. Season with salt and a good quantity of the pepper. Stir in the prunes.
- Put the goose in the sink and pour a kettle of boiling water over it. This ensures a good, crisp skin. Remove and dry with kitchen towels. Salt the cavity and fill loosely with the stuffing, then sew up the vent. Prick the skin all over but not the flesh. Place on the grid in the roasting pan and roast breastside up for 15 minutes.
- Lower heat to 350 degrees F, turn the goose onto its side. Halfway through, turn onto the other side, then for the last 15 minutes onto its back again. Throughout the cooking, baste every 20 minutes with three tablespoons of boiling water and remove the fat from the pan into a bowl. The easiest way to perform both these operations is with a bulb baster. The whole cooking time should be 2 1/2 hours. Test by piercing the thickest part of the thigh: the juices should run pale yellow.
- When ready, the goose should be put on a very hot dish. Pour off the remaining fat from the roasting pan and make the gravy from the reserved prune liquid, adding it to the residual juices in the pan. Bring to the boil and simmer for a few minutes, adjust the seasoning, strain into a sauce boat and hand round separately.
ROAST GOOSE WITH APPLES
When I was reading about holiday food traditions around the world, this one sounded so good to me: Russian Roast Goose with Apples. I personally never had roast goose over the holidays, although I hear about it everywhere! In Russia, a roast goose with apples is like a Thanksgiving turkey with stuffing. Roasting a goose is not the same as roasting a chicken or a turkey; It's skin is very thick and fatty, so it requires a few extra steps to prepare for roasting compared to other birds. It is simple, though, and well worth it! Enjoy this holiday classic!

Steps:
- If your goose is frozen, place in the refrigerator 24-48 hours before roasting to thoroughly defrost. Remove the goose from the refrigerator and leave at room temperature for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Remove the neck and giblets, rinse goose thoroughly with cold running water, and pat dry with paper towels. Trim as much of the access fat as possible from the opening of the cavity.
- With the point of a sharp knife, prick the skin all over the goose, making sure not to pierce the flesh at all. Fold the neck flap under the body of the goose, and pin the flap down with a wooden toothpick. Generously sprinkle the cavity with salt and pepper, and insert the garlic, apple, onion, shallots, thyme, sage and bay leaf. Tie the legs together with a piece of kitchen twine. Sprinkle the outside of the goose with salt and pepper, and place in a shallow roasting pan (breast side up). Carefully pour the water into the pan (this will prevent the grease that drips into the pan from burning).
- Roast the goose in the oven until it turns a golden brown, about one hour. Every 30 minutes or so, use a baster to remove the grease from the pan. After 1 hour of roasting, reduce the heat to 325 degrees . Roast until the goose is very well browned all over and an instant read thermometer inserted into a breast (not touching the bone) reads 180 degrees (about 1 hour after reducing the heat).
- Remove the goose from the oven and place on a platter. Allow it to rest for 15-20 minutes before serving. Dress with apples and herbs, if desired.

ROASTED GOOSE WITH APPLE RUM STUFFING
This year for Christmas my neighbor was kind enough to give me a copy of his mother's game recipes. She was a 3rd generation Newfoundlander and one heck of a cook! I remember her serving this roast on one of her visits. It is a wonderful roast and leftovers make great soup! Stacey

Steps:
- To make the outside-in stuffing, soak the cranberries in the port for an hour. Fry the onion and bacon gently in the butter until the onion is tender and the bacon cooked. Add the garlic and fry for another minute or so. Cool slightly then mix with the remaining ingredients, including the cranberries and port, adding enough of the egg to bind. Fry a small piece of stuffing to test seasoning and adjust accordingly.
- To make the hazelnut and orange stuffing, fry the shallots gently in the butter until golden, then add the sugar and the orange juice. Simmer until the liquid has virtually all evaporated leaving a delicious jammy mass of shallots. Pour boiling water over the sage, leave for one minute, then drain and squeeze dry. Add to the shallots, along with all the other ingredients. Fry a small piece of stuffing to test seasoning and adjust accordingly
- Preheat the oven to 190C/375F/Gas 5.
- To prepare the goose, trim the excess fat from inside the goose. Pack the 'outside-in' stuffing into the neck end of the goose, pressing it firmly and then tucking the flap of skin neatly down around it. Secure firmly underneath with wooden cocktail sticks or a metal skewer.
- Fill three-quarters the stomach cavity with the hazelnut and orange stuffing.
- Prick the skin of the goose all over with a fork. Season with salt and pepper. Lay some of the fat removed from the cavity over the thighs to keep them moist. Cover with foil and place on a rack in the oven with a tray underneath so that you can empty out the fat regularly.
- Roast a 4kg/9lb goose for three hours, a 4.5-5kg/10-11lb goose for three-and-a-half hours and a 5.5kg/12lb goose for four hours.
- Remove the foil for 30-40 minutes before the end of the cooking time so that the skin can brown and crisp. To test it is cooked, pierce the fattest part of the thigh with a skewer. If the juices run clear then the bird is done.
- Rest for 20-30 minutes, oven turned off with the door ajar, before carving.
Tips:
- Thaw the goose thoroughly before cooking. This will ensure that it cooks evenly and is safe to eat.
- Use a roasting pan that is large enough to accommodate the goose. You don't want the goose to be cramped, as this will prevent it from cooking properly.
- Season the goose generously with salt and pepper. This will help to enhance the flavor of the meat.
- Stuff the goose with your favorite stuffing. This is a great way to add flavor and moisture to the meat.
- Roast the goose at a high temperature for a short period of time, then reduce the heat and cook until the goose is done. This will help to create a crispy skin and tender meat.
- Let the goose rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This will help to keep the juices in the meat.
Conclusion:
Roast goose is a delicious and festive dish that is perfect for a special occasion. With careful preparation and cooking, you can create a roast goose that will impress your family and friends.
