The modifier of "soon" is disappointing.

But the torch is always passed.

This time confidently.

That's almost true, but it's not.

I said that I have NOT opened a restaurant, just like my parents.

This is also almost true, but yesterday I baked parsnips for the first
time. In the Netherlands, they're considered a forgotten vegetable,
but in Australia they're in every supermarket. They were nice. Next
time I'll drizzle them with honey, unless that makes them a desert.

Don't worry Jill, that's just Sheldon supersizing everything. If he
actually at the way he talks, he'd be 600lbs.

Real people will make at a minimum, 6 servings from a whole duck and
most will make 8-10. Here with us being low-meat eaters, we probably
get 12 or more per duck. It's high fat so eating less works really
well.

LOL! Works for me!

I'm about to freeze some leftover turkey meat then make up a creamy
cassarole dish with the rest.

I found some cooked leftover duck meat (vacuumn sealed 2 months ago)
and want to play with combining them.

On the contrary, you are quite boring in that you allow only items YOU

Actually, we post lots of things and they aren't take out food, or if
so, an exceptional one unique to the area (DS1 does that now and again
and says it's a takeout).

I'm not a big eater but a duck feeds four.

Likewise, but I can down a half duck ina heartbeat.

I recall a seafood resto in Sacramento CA called The Rusty Duck. I
once ordered half a roasted duck. It was excellent and prolly one of
the few times I've ever eaten duck. It was not --as many would have
you believe-- dripping in it's own fat. It was a lovely dish.

I believe the last time she did, you carped about her kitchen instead of the

If you cook duck properly there will be no 'dripping fat' when you eat
it, that's all been collected ready to use for other purposes.

I'd sure like to know how this duck was prepared. It was sublime!

I could prolly get by with a quarter of a duck, these days, as I'm
not as young and hungry as I once was.

I enjoy cooking but I sure don't want to do it "on demand". There's a
lot more to owning a restaurant than being a good cook.

I leave it unwrapped in the 'fridge overnight. The breast (on any
water fowl) needs puncturing to allow the fat to run off but be
careful not to puncture it beyond the fat. Roast on a rack, gently,
and the skin should crisp up nicely from being air dried in the
fridge.

I stuff it with sage and onion stuffing. Makes a nice weekend dish, I
feel it only serves four, so I cut with scissors along the spine and
divide into wings and legs. I wouldn't cook a piece of duck, don't
think it would be too good.

Ok, most would have problems with that much fatty meat.

An 8lb duck yields a lot.

"When buying whole duck or goose, allow about 1 to 1 1/2 pounds of raw
weight per person. Raw boneless meat yields about 3 servings per pound
after cooking. Estimate 3 to 4-ounces per person for fully cooked
products."

So, an 8lb duck pretty much feeds 8.

Yup. Something about my wallpaper, or maybe he didnt like my spice
cabinet and then there was another time he didn't like my stove. It's
endless. It's never about the food, but the background.
