Goose And Kraut Food

GOOSE AND KRAUT

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Clean goose under cold running water, paying special attention to the cavity. Poke holes all over the goose using a paring knife. This allows some of the fat to escape while cooking. Place breast-side up onto a broiler pan or roasting rack, and cover loosely with aluminum foil.
• Bake for about 1 hour in the preheated oven, or until very tender. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
• Combine the shredded potatoes, sauerkraut, applesauce, and brown sugar in a slow-cooker. Remove as much meat from the goose as you can, leaving meat in large pieces. Add them to the mixture in the slow cooker. Place the lid on the cooker and cook on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours.

ROAST GOOSE WITH SAUERKRAUT

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prick the goose skin all over with a sharp fork, skewer, or thin-bladed knife; try not to hit the meat (the fat layer is usually about 1/4 inch thick). Season the goose with salt and pepper and place it, breast side down, on a rack in a roasting pan.
• Roast the goose for 20 minutes, prick the exposed skin again, then roast for another 20 minutes, or until it begins to brown. Then turn the goose breast side up, prick again, and baste with some of the accumulated pan juices (there will be plenty). Roast for another hour, pricking the skin and basting 2 or 3 times during that period.
• Take the roasting pan out of the oven and remove the goose. Lay the sauerkraut on the bottom of the roasting pan and return the goose to the pan. Raise the heat to 400°F and continue to roast until the meat is done, about another 30 minutes. At that point, all juices, including those from the interior, should run clear, and the leg bone should wiggle a little in its socket. When the bird is done, an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thigh will read about 180°F.
• Remove the goose from the pan and set the pan over low heat on the stovetop. Stir in the sugar and wine, scraping the browned bits from the pan, and simmer until the sauce has reduced slightly and the sauerkraut is moist but not swimming in liquid.
• Carve the goose and serve with the sauerkraut.

RESTAURANT RUC'S ROAST GOOSE WITH SAUERKRAUT

Place in a roasting pan with the gizzards, neck, liver and wings underneath, plus two cups of water. Roast for two to three hours or until cooked, basting frequently with more water and pouring off the fat.
• Rinse the sauerkraut and put into a heavy pot with 1-2 cups water, the caraway seeds and salt. Boil for 30 minutes and drain. In a separate pan saute the onion with the bacon. Add to the sauerkraut. Season with sugar and vinegar to taste. Cook for five more minutes.
• Arrange goose on a serving dish and keep warm. Pour the fat off the cooking juices in the roasting pan. Stir in the flour, cook for a minute, then add the stock. Bring to a boil, season and serve separately in a sauce boat. Place the dumpling around the goose. Serve the sauerkraut in a bowl.
