If the Easter products had been made of dark chocolate, I
might have been more avid. I don't have chocolate coupons,
anyhow.

Considering that the roster so far is the Sacs, the Shipps, the
Fords, and me, I'm thinking we might want to encourage a few
more participants. Not that a tiny group wouldn't be fun - in
fact, on a smaller group I could foist more, erm, interesting
culinary experiences. Perhaps there will be rare liver and tripe
in the Ethiopian style in their future: you can ensure that your
friends are safe from this by showing up!

MMMMM----- Meal Master Recipe

      Title: Upperline Roast Duck w-Ginger Peach Sauce
 Categories: Poultry, Sauces, Booze
      Yield: 2 Servings

      5 lb Duckling
      1 tb Soy sauce
      2 tb DiJon Mustard
      1 md Onion; Chopped
      1 md Carrot; Chopped
      1 tb Garlic; Chopped
      2 tb Dried thyme
      1 tb Salt
      1 ts Black Pepper

MMMM----------------------------SAUCE--------------------------------
      1    Peach; peel and slice
    1/4 c  Frozen O. J. concentrate
    1/4 c  Mango chutney
      1 ts Fresh ginger; grated
      1 tb Cointreau or Grand Marnier
           Salt

  1. Bring a gallon of water to a boil in a large stockpot.
     Meanwhile, cut shallow slits in the duck skin. Remove
     the liver from the giblets (reserve for another use)
     and cut off the wing tips. When the water is boiling,
     carefully lower the duck into it and parboil for about
     15 minutes.

  2. Remove the duck to a platter and let it cool. When the
     duck is cool enough to handle, preheat the oven to 450
     degrees F. Rub the duck with the soy sauce and mustard.
     Coat the inside and outside of the duck with the onion,
     carrots, garlic, thyme, salt and pepper.

  3. Put the duck, breast side up, on a rack in a roasting
     pan, then into the oven. Roast for an hour and 15 min.
     then lower the heat to 350oF. After another 30 or 30
     min. see if the juices in the leg run clear when
     pricked. If so, the duck is done. Let it rest for at
     least fifteen minutes before attempting to cut.

  4. Make the sauce while the duck is in the oven. Place
     the peach slices with all the other sauce ingredients
     in a small saucepan. Simmer over medium-low heat for
     about 15 minutes. Add salt to taste.

  5. When ready to serve, preheat the oven to 500oF. Split
     the duck lengthwise with a heavy knife. Remove breast
     bones and rib cage. Place the duck halves on a broiler
     pan and into the oven. Roast until the skin sizzles,
     about 8 minutes.

  6. Spoon the sauce onto the plate and place the duck on
     top to serve.
