It was in the Complete Galloping Gourmet Cookbook - Graham Kerr's Culinary Collection (1972). Hope it helps. -ginny Duck a la Normande 1 duck, 4 1/2 lbs (Aylesbury, Long Island or Brome Lake) 5 oz seedless raisins 9 fl oz cider 2 fl oz port wine 4 fl oz heavy cream 2 green apples 3 oz. onion 2 tsp arrowroot freshly ground salt freshly ground black pepper clarified butter* Prepa Prick duck all over, esp. around back so that fat will be realeased during cooking. Slice nion thinly, measure port. Remove giblets from bird. Set aside raisins in bowl and pour 5 oz. of cider over them. Allow these to marinate for at least one hour. Measure remaining 4 oz. of cider. Wash and core apples. Place in a serving dish in a warm oven. Preheast the oven to 400. A little string will also be required Cook: Truss duck with string andplace in a cassarole. Do not add grease or seasoning. Place bird uncovered inot preheated oven for 20 minutes. After 20 min. remove duck, pour off fatty juices and discard. Season bird with salt and pepper and coat it with clarified butter. Return to oven (reduced to 350) and continue cooking for about 1 3/4 hours. No basting is required. Into a hot skillet add some clarified butter to just cover the bottom and fry onion gently. Add neck and giblets and cook to extract their natural juices. Season with salt and pepper. Strain juice from marinated raisins into onion mixture. Allow to bubble gently. Reduce heat under sauce and occasionally add a little more cider from measured amount. Pour port wine over strained raisins. Cut cored apples into 10 thick slices. Pour a little cold clarified butter inot an unheated pan, just enough to coat the bottom, pop in slices of apples and set heat a medium. Turn apples after 2 minutes. They will have softened but not browned. Turn heat off and drain off fat. Sieve onion 'sauce' pressing through pulp and pour it over apple slices. Add raisins and port and shake together gently. Gradually pour in cream and return to pan to low heat incresing it slowly to boiling point. Blend arrowroot with remaining cider and stir into sauce. Sauce will thicken instantly. Keep warm on low heat. Do not overcook or apples will fall apart. Remove duck when browned and tender. Cut away string, place bird on heated serving dish . Arrange apple slices around duck. Cover duck with sauce. Garnish platter with parsley. |

Actually, when I tried it the first thing on the page was > Did you mean: Galloping Gourmet duck as a clickable link. So I guess this wasn't one of those times. Personally, I'm embarassed how often Google corrects my spelling, but it's pretty good at guessing. Mike Beede |
