MRS. W. E. CHEEVER.
Before cooking wild ducks parboil them with an onion
or carrot inside of them. This removes the strong flavor.
When roasted use dressing the same as for poultry, with
the addition of a few slices of onion. Many good cooks
lay over the game slices of onion, which takes away the
fishy flavor ;remove the o#on before serving. Make a
sauce with the drippings in the pan, into which put
the
chopped giblets which are previously well cooked, thicken
the gravy with browned flour moistened with water.
