Discover the rich flavors of fall with this goose broth recipe

Goose is considered a noble type of poultry. It’s essential to note that it’s not just about mere sentimentality towards tradition, but also about taste and health benefits. Take, for example, the previously mentioned goose broth, the protagonist of this article. How does this soup differ from the much more common chicken broth? Primarily in its intensity, especially noticeable in the fall.

Is goose broth better than chicken broth?

Praising autumn goose has two meanings. The first relates to a legend dating back to the 4th century AD and Saint Martin, the patron saint of travelers and beggars. The second is connected to the rearing cycle of these birds. It’s in the fall that geese reach optimal growth, marking the best season for their fatty meat. The abundance of healthy fatty acids, iron, and vitamins (particularly niacin) makes this meat much healthier than chicken. Goose broth, therefore, is more intense, fatty, and rich in health-promoting elements. It’s worth trying—which is why we’re presenting a sample recipe below.

Goose broth

Ingredients:

  • 1 portion of goose meat for broth
  • 2 carrots
  • 1 parsley root
  • 1 piece of celery root
  • 1 onion
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 3 bay leaves
  • 5 allspice berries
  • salt
  • pepper
  • parsley

Instructions:

  1. Clean the goose, rinse it, place it in a large pot, and cover with cold water.
  2. Add the allspice and bay leaves.
  3. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for an hour.
  4. During this time, skim off the scum and prepare the vegetables.
  5. Peel the vegetables and cut them into smaller pieces. Char the onion.
  6. After an hour of cooking, add all the vegetables. Cook for another 1.5 hours.
  7. Finally, season with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Serve with pasta prepared according to the package instructions and parsley. Enjoy!
