    Title: Quebec-style Roast Goose
    Categories: Game, Poultry, Stuffing, Wine
    Yield: 7 Servings

    10 sl White Bread
    1 c Dried currants
    4 lg Apples; peeled, sliced
    1 tb Dried thyme
    4 tb Melted butter
    1 tb Oil
    10 lb Goose
    1 lg Onion; chopped
    1 lg Carrot; chopped
    1 Rib celery; chopped
    1 cl Garlic; minced
    1 Bay leaf
    3 Whole cloves
    1 Sprig fresh thyme
    1 Sprig fresh marjoram
    1/4 c White wine
    1 ts Tomato paste
    10 oz Can chicken bouillon

    Make stuffing by combining bread, currants, apples,
    thyme, salt, pepper and melted butter.

    Stuff, truss and tie goose. Prick bird all over with
    fork. Heat oil in roasting pan on top of stove, brown
    goose lightly on all sides, then drain off pan drippings.

    Set goose breast side up, add a little water, cover and
    roast at 375oF for one hour.

    Combine chopped onion, carrot, celery, the garlic, bay
    leaf, cloves, thyme and marjoram. Discard fat from
    roasting pan*, add vegetable mixture and continue
    roasting uncovered 20 - 25 minutes per pound (three to
    four hours in all) draining off fat at intervals and
    adding more water as required.

    Transfer cooked goose to platter and keep warm. Skim off
    remaining fat in pan and heat dripping and vegetables on
    top of stove until mixture is reduced. Then stir in white
    wine, tomato paste and chicken bouillon.

    Simmer for 10 - 15 minutes, then strain gravy. A little
    cornstarch mixed with water may be blended in to thicken
    gravy, if desired.

    Serve goose with gravy, applesauce, mashed potatoes and
    braised cabbage.

    Makes six to eight servings.
