Garam-masala goose legs with red cabbage
Step 1/2
- 1 whole duck
- knife
There are two ways to test whether a roast chicken, duck, or turkey is done without a food thermometer. For the first method, pull on the drumsticks. If they come loose or off rather easily, the bird is cooked. For the second method, prick a thick part of the bird with a sharp knife. When the juice that runs out is clear, it’s done.
Step 2/2
- food thermometer
If you have a food thermometer, use it to measure the temperature of the thickest part of the bird, either the drumstick or the breast. For chicken, duck, or turkey, it’s done when the thermometer reaches about 80°C / 175°F. Let it rest for approx. 15 – 20 min. before carving and serving. This way, the meat will stay juicy. Enjoy!
