Goose fat
We had goose for christmas dinner and, having roasted potatos and parsnips in it, we are still left with quite a bit. I don't really want to throw it out as it gives such a lovely flavour, but how do I prevent it from going off?
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

Re: Goose fat
Don't worry milims. I've had it in the fridge for a year and it hasn't gone off. I keep it in a kilner jar.
You can still have roasties for months to come.

Re: Goose fat
Same here.
Goose for Xmas. Loads of fat.
Put it in the fridge and it should keep ok.

Re: Goose fat
And it will keep OK as long as that grungy, jelly-like bit at the bottom never gets exposed to the air. THAT bit will happily go off, given half a chance.
Experience, you see ...
OH ... "I thought you said goose fat keeps for ever".
ME ... "It does".
OH ... "Then why does this bit have hair?".

Re: Goose fat
Ah - I took the jelly stuff out as stock
So I've put the rest in a jug in the fridge. Looking forward to lots of roasties!
