    It's simple. They don't give a shi** about traffic and will happily
    hold it up for hours. When you try to shoo them away they pull a gun
    on you. Most of the Canadian Geese got their weapons when they joined street gangs in the DPRT.

    They've all gone quackers.

    Ducks quack. Geese honk. Really

    Title: Roast Mallard Duck w/Honey Butter-Chorizo Stuffing
    Categories: Game, Pork, Herbs, Breads
    Yield: 5 Servings

    40 g (1 1/2 oz) spun honey spread
    110 g (4 oz) bulk chorizo
    100 g (3 1/2 oz) white breadcrumbs
    2 kg (4 1/2 lb) mallard duck
    2 tb Thyme; chopped
    1 tb Butter or olive oil
    1 lg Onion; peeled, chopped
    1 cl Garlic; peeled, fine chop'd
    Salt & ground pepper

    Set the oven @ 175ºC/350ºf/Gas mark 4.

    First make the stuffing, melt 25g of the spun honey
    spread in a saucepan with the butter, then add the
    onion, garlic and chorizo, cover with a lid and cook
    on a low heat for 8-10 minutes or until the onions are
    soft but not browned.

    Take off the heat, then stir in the thyme and bread
    crumbs. Season to taste with salt and pepper then
    allow to cool.

    Spoon the cooled stuffing into the duck's cavity and
    place the duck in a roasting tin. Smear the remaining
    spun honey over the skin of the bird and sprinkle with
    some salt and pepper.

    Place in the oven and roast for about 1 hour and 30-45
    minutes (allowing about 20 minutes per 450g/1 lb),
    until cooked, basting occasionally. If it begins to
    look quite dark while cooking, cover with some foil.

    To check whether the duck is fully cooked, stick a
    skewer into the thigh with a spoon placed underneath
    to catch the juices, the juices should run clear.
    Also, the legs should feel quite loose on the bird.

    When cooked, transfer the duck to a serving plate and
    leave to rest, covered with foil and in the oven at
    the lowest temperature. This will keep the duck warm
    while you make the gravy or sauce.

    Spoon the stuffing out of the duck into a serving bowl
    or onto a plate.

    Carve and serve.

    Serves 4-6

    Kerrygold and Rachel Allen Community Cookbook

    Adapted to use a duck rather than a chicken by Uncle
    Dirty Dave. Quite good. I was given a mallard duck but
    a canvasback, teal, or even a domestic duck would work

    Yes but I took literary license since "honkers" might have a negative association to it. XD

    It's okay though. I know the moderator.

    2/3 c ;water;*

    ORIGINAL POSTERS NOTES: *NOTE: For greater flavor with little or no
    fat add, substitute no fat beef broth or some wine for part of the
    water called for in the ingredients.

    **If you have a sensitivity to sodium, note that the dry onion soup
    mix may be high in salt. I have also posted a recipe for onion
    seasoning mix in CAT 3 TOPic 31 that was posted on the board sometime
    back that enables you to use your own mix and control the amount of
    salt in it.
