Traditional Michaelmas dish. Written by Mandy N (5/1/2007 9:35 a.m.) in consequence of the missive, Harvest, penned by JulieW

Intriguing how a traditonal dish like Green Goose shows the harvest had been gathered in.
I wonder if feasting on Goose at Michaelmas was also sign of plenty.

Wonderful culinary details, thanks Julie.
