Description

This is an old Polish recipe that was used at Easter time. This recipe is traditionally served with home made noodles. If desired the fruit can be removed, leaving broth to serve with noodle. If you do not know where to purchase a duck, contact a local farmer or butcher. If you prepare your own poultry be sure to add 1/2 cup vinegar to duck blood to prevent coagulation.

Ingredient:

  • 1 (4 pound) wild duck, whole
  • 4 cups duck blood
  • 8 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 stalk celery, cut into 2 inch pieces
  • 1 sprig chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 5 whole allspice berries
  • 2 whole cloves
  • 16 ounces pitted prunes
  • ½ cup raisins
  • 1 tart apple - peeled, cored and chopped
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
