This makes a delicious goose!!! It was originally a recipe from Emeril Lagasse, in which I added the tarragon. Ingredients:
1 domestic goose (about 10 lbs.) |
1 cup chopped yellow onion, divided |
1/4 cup chopped celery |
1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper |
2 teaspoons salt, divided |
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic powder |
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper |
1/2 cup chopped carrot |
2 bay leaves |
1/2 teaspoon tarragon |
3 cups ruby port |
2 teaspoons vegetable oil |
1 goose chicken giblets, and neck |
1/2 cup chopped onion |
1/4 cup chopped celery |
1/2 cup chopped carrot |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper |
5 bay leaves |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
2 tablespoons flour |
2 cups tawny port |
2 cups water |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Combine 1/2 cup of the onions, celery, bell pepper, 1 teaspoon of the salt& 1/4 teaspoon of the cayenne in a mixing bowl.
3. Remove the neck& giblets& set aside.
4. Remove any excess fat around the opening of the cavity of the goose.
5. Prick other fatty areas with a fork at intervals.
6. Do not prick the breast.
7. Stuff the cavity of the goose with vegetable mixture.
8. Season the outside of the goose with the remaining teaspoon of salt, black pepper, garlic powder& tarragon.
9. Place the goose in a large roasting pan& roast in oven, uncovered, for 1 hour& 45 minutes, or until drumsticks& thighs are easy to remove.
10. Combine the remaining 1/2 cup of onion, carrots, bay leaves& port wine in a medium size sauce pan over medium heat& bring to a boil.
11. Continue cooking over medium heat until the mixture thickens& reduces to about 1/2 cup, about 30 minutes.
12. Strain through a fine mesh strainer& allow to cool.
13. Using a pastry brush, glaze the goose with the port wine reduction,& return to the oven for 5 minutes to allow the glaze to caramelize& set.
14. Remove from the oven& allow to rest for 20 minutes before carving.
15. Serve with the Port Gravy.
16. FOR THE TAWNY PORT GRAVY: In a large sauce pan, heat oil over medium-high heat.
17. Add the giblets& neck,& brown, stirring, 3 to 4 minutes.
18. Add the onions, celery, carrots, salt, pepper, bay leaves& thyme& cook, stirring often, for 3 to 4 minutes.
19. Add the flour& stir to combine.
20. Cook, stirring, for 5 minutes.
21. Add the wine, bring to a boil,& cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes.
22. Add the water& bring to a boil.
