Feast by Tola Rufusdóhtor‎

=== The Duck ===
No seasoning on it at all.  It was just cooked over an oak wood fire then warmed back up in the roasters.

=== Fried pork balls in sage ===

* 2 cups ground cooked pork
* 2 eggs beaten
* 2-4 tbsp bread crumps
* 1/2 tsp ground allspice
* 1/4 tsp ground ginger
* 1/4 tsp ground pepper
* Pinch of Ground cloves
* Pinch of saffron
* 1 oz pine nuts 
* 1 tsp salt
* 1 tbsp flour
* 20-30 fresh sage leaves

Mix pork, crumbs, pine nuts and seasoning with one of the beaten eggs

Form the mixture into small/very small meatballs 1/2 inch in diameter

Moisten sage leaves and wrap around each ball

Beat remaining egg with flour to make a batter and dip or roll balls in the batter (we did not batter them and we minced sage into some of them verses rolling them in the leaves which was incredibly time consuming for a million pork balls)

Fry turning to brown all over and serve hot

=== Brussel sprouts ===

* 2lbs Brussel sprouts
* Salt to taste
* 2 tbsp Olive oil
* 1 tbsp vinegar 
* 2 tbsp chopped fresh herbs ( dill, chives, parsley)

Trim and wash the sprouts and cook in salted water until tender (about 10 minutes) 

Drain well and toss gently in olive oil

Add vinegar and herbs and stir making sure the sprouts are evenly coated with herbs

=== Giblets ===

* 1 lb duck livers
* 1 lb giblets (heart and gizzards)
* 1 cup beef broth
* 1/4-1/2 cup bread crumbs (2-3 slices of bread)
* 1/4 tsp ground pepper
* 1/4 tsp mace
* 1/8 tsp ground cloves
* 1 tsp cider or white wine vinegar or lemon juice
* Salt to taste
* Pinch of saffron
* 1/2 tsp ground sage
* 2 tbsp chopped parsley

Put gizzards and hearts in a saucepan with broth and bring to a boil

Simmer 25-30 minutes

Add liver and cook another 5 minutes

Stir in spices

Blend the bread crumbs with the sauce and cook a few ore minutes until well thickened

Add vinegar or lemon juice just before serving and garnish with parsley

=== Raspberry Mustard Sauce ===
This is Tola creation so it isn’t an exact science

Simmer raspberries until berries are mush to create a juice

Remove raspberries from heat and colander out the seeds it is ok for pulp to remain

Place berries back on the heat and add stone ground mustard, balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, honey, salt and pepper to taste.

Simmer and stir nearly constantly until well blended and sauce begins to thicken

Sugar can be added to sweeten if needed

=== Lemon Garlic Beef Sauce ===
in the comments later... I cant seem to find where I put that one in my computer.
