In southern China, roast goose is a variety of siu mei, or roasted meat dishes, within Cantonese cuisine. It is made by roasting geese with seasoning often in a charcoal furnace at high temperature. Roasted geese of high quality have crisp skin with juicy and tender meat. Slices of roast goose may be served with plum sauce.[citation needed]
Roast goose, as served in Hong Kong, especially in the city of Sham Tseng[1] [2] is similar [clarification needed] to its counterpart in the neighboring Guangdong Provinceofsouthern China. Some restaurants offer a similarly prepared roast duck.[citation needed]
Goose has a distinct flavor[3] which makes it a favorite[4] European Christmas dish. In Germany, roast goose is a staple for Christmas Day meals.[5] For European cultures, roast goose is traditionally[6] eaten only on appointed holidays, including St. Martin's Day.[7]
It is generally replaced by the turkey in the United States. Similarly, goose is often an alternative to turkey on European Christmas tables.[citation needed] In the United States, the price per pound of goose is usually similar to that of farmed duck, but the large size of the bird and low yield of meat to bone and fat makes a goose a luxury item for most. An added value is that roasting a goose will render a great deal of excellent quality fat which is typically used for roasting potatoes or as the shortening in pie crust (sweet or savory). One can also simmer pieces of goose submerged in the fat to make confit. Roast goose is also a popular ingredient for post-Christmas meals. There are a number of recipes for Boxing Day which make use of left over roast goose from one's Christmas Day banquet.[8]
Prevalent stuffings[9] are apples, sweet chestnuts, prunes and onions. Typical seasonings[10] include salt and pepper, mugwort, or marjoram. Also used are red cabbage, Klöße, and gravy, which are used to garnish the goose.[citation needed]
