I need a good recipe for roast duck.
Notice that I said "A good recipe"
Is there a favorite for roast duck Polish style?

Pieter,
I have decided to cook the duck Polish style. Go to the 'Extra Board' thread and you will see a link to Grandmas Polish recipes and in there is a Polish Duck.

Good choice John. That must be delicious, remembering the cook you are! I remember that my babcia from Poznań made the best roasted duck there is! She was a top cook! I mean it!

Pieter's recipe looks similar to Polish ones. I remember Polish duck with apples.... so it is just right for this season.

Well, I prepared the duck according to the Polish Grandmas recipe. It turned out delicious. My son, his FF and I enjoyed it very much. Will definitely add this item more often to our menus. My next culinary adventure is 'roast goose'. My mother prepared it when I was very young and I do not remember what it was like. Also, we have a preponderance of wild turkeys here and I must try one of these also. Tomorrow we will have braised chicken. I have a 10 lb capon and we will have mashed potato with gravy and butter cup squash. For dessert we will have the following: Easy Fresh Pear Cobbler
 Prep Time: 15 minutes Cook Time: 60 minutes Ingredients 2 to 2 1/2 cups sliced fresh pears 2 cups sugar, divided 1 stick (4 ounces) butter 3/4 cup all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon salt 3/4 cup milk 1 egg Preparation Mix pears with 1 cup sugar and let stand. Put butter in 2-quart casserole and place in 325° oven until melted. Combine all dry ingredients, including the remaining 1 cup of sugar. Mix well. Whisk together the milk and egg; slowly combine with dry ingredients to make a batter. Pour over melted butter. Do not stir. Spoon pears over the batter. Do not stir. Bake at 325° for 50 to 60 minutes, or until nicely browned and pears are tender. Serve hot or cold with ice cream or whipped cream. Have a nice evening my friends.   |

John, this is my cobbler according to this recipe, which I actually used also a week ago (seems to be repeated). The only difference, instead of 3/4 cup of flour I used twice as much: [img src="  " alt=" "] |
