Green Geese, Roasted, with Gravy Sauce
Ingredients
Directions
The book gives no oven temperature. The 400°F (200°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point. The book gives no cooking times either; the times in the steps were added in transcription, so check for doneness rather than trusting the clock.
Prepare
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Season the geese with salt and pepper.
Roast and serve
Roast the geese in the oven until cooked through, about 1.5 hours.
Serve with gravy poured over the top.
Transcribed from a scanned cookbook and modernised for today's kitchens. Where the book gave no heat or time, or said "a moderate oven", the temperatures and times here may be modern equivalents rather than the book's own figures.

What each ingredient does
- Green geese
- Provides the main protein and the bulk of the dish.
- Gravy
- Adds moisture and savory flavor to the finished meat.
The step that matters
Roast until cooked through. Poultry must reach a safe internal temperature throughout. Relying only on the stated time can leave the thickest parts undercooked, so check the internal temperature of the meat before serving.
