Food

Nicholas Carozza Last Sunday I ate something rather different for lunch. I had made a duck, which I normally don’t eat regularly or basically at all. In the morning I went to the store and I saw that they were selling whole ducks, so I thought that it would be a good choice for lunch because it was something different. When I had got home I started to prepare the duck, I got a big baking pan and put the entire duck in. Then What I did was peel and cut four or five potatoes and place them all around and on top of the duck. Then I got some herbs and spices and placed it all on the duck itself. When we bought the duck, it came with some kind of orange sauce so I got the sauce and rubbed it all over the duck so that when it was cooking the sauce would go inside of the duck and add even more flavor. To cook the duck I turned on my oven to 200 degrees and put the duck in. I let the duck sit in the oven for about three to four hours. During the cooking period, I had to make a side dish, so I decided to make Chestnut corn bread stuffing. To make that I chopped up stale bread we had lying around, chestnuts, carrots, celery, onion, chicken broth and seasonings. (Salt and Pepper). To cook that I added all of those to a cooking pot that is oven safe and I let that cook for about a half hour to fourty five minutes. Once the stuffing and the duck were done I combined them in a dish and ate. The duck was so flavorful and the stuffing was so good. You never know the outcome of a dish you don’t really eat unless you try it.
