Time 5h10m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 whole goose, 8 to 10 pounds, thawed if frozen
2 cups water
1 small onion, sliced
3/4 teaspoon salt
6 cups soft bread crumbs (9 slices)
1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh sage leaves or 1/2 teaspoon dried sage leaves
3/4 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves or 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 medium tart apples, chopped (3 cups)
2 medium celery stalks (with leaves), chopped (1 cup)
1 medium onion, chopped (1/2 cup)
1/4 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour

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.

ROAST GOOSE WITH WILD RICE-CHESTNUT STUFFING



Roast Goose With Wild Rice-Chestnut Stuffing image

This is one way Christmas dinner was prepared in Dicken's day! Adapted from YANKEE MAGAZINE. Cooking time includes about 1 1/2 hours for rice to cook and cool. (I used a wild rice blend I found in bulk) Canned chestnuts can be found in specialty stores. Make sure they are NOT packed in syrup! The original recipe did not pierce skin and fat, which I did to help "drain" off excess grease. It also said to put whole goose on serving platter and garnish with pine sprigs and sliced blood oranges, but I find it messy to try to carve at the table and dig stuffing out to serve. If you are more adventuresome, serve this way :) NOTE: 'Zaar will not let me put in "1 10-12 lb. goose" so it comes up "10 lbs. geese"

  • Fry bacon in a skillet until crisp. Add onion, celery and parsley and sauté 5 minutes.

  • Remove to cutting board and let rest 15 minutes.

Tips:

  • To ensure the goose is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The ideal temperature for cooked goose is 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius).

  • To prevent the stuffing from drying out, add a little bit of broth or water to it before stuffing the goose.
  • If you're using a frozen goose, be sure to thaw it completely before cooking.
