HOW TO PREPARE GEESE, SENT SOVÍ #LXXVIIII QUI PARLA CON SA DEU FFER CARN AB BROU, MOLTÓ O VACA O CRESTAT O CABRIT, pp 116-117
Always roast geese on a spit or in the oven. A sauce should be served with it. Sent Soví recommends one composed of white sugar and almonds. This sauce can be used to accompany chicken, duck, and partridge as well.
SWEET SOUR SAUCE ADAPTED FROM SENT SOVI #LX, pp 104-105 (It seems that Nola copied his recipe from Sent Soví and added cinnamon, ginger and pepper and used pomegranate juice instead of orange or lemon. Nola calls for honey or powdered sugar which Sent Soví only calls for sugar.)o
2 c orange juice or juice from 8 oranges
1 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp ginger
½ tsp pepper
½ tsp pepper
2 tbsp rosewater
garnish:
2 tbsp orange peel
1 tbsp parsley or other herb
garnish:
2 tbsp orange peel
1 tbsp parsley or other herb
Blanch almonds in boiling water. Remove skins. Put them into a food processor and grind until the texture is like flour. Add cinnamon, ginger and pepper. Do not strain. Make strips of orange peel with a vegetable scraper, trim and set aside for garnish. Squeeze oranges. Put the almond mixture into a sauce pan and simmer, adding orange 1 tablespoon at a time. Mix well and continue adding the juice until the consistency is like gravy. Add honey. Mix until the texture is creamy. Add a splash of rosewater to perfume and garnish with orange peel and parsley or other decorative herb.
It is excellent with any kind of meat or fish and good warm in winter and cold in the summer.
