Title: Goose recipes please!
Post by: Womble on July 24, 2016, 09:09:42 pm

So the first time we tried cooking 'mature' goose it came out like shoe leather. The second time we made cassoulet, by stewing it in the pressure cooker for about a week, and the results were just about acceptable.


Is there anything else we should try to render a tough old bird palatable?  ;D

If it's that bad then you could always boil it until you can get it off the bone then mince it and, say, make meat balls in a  goose soup - or something
