General Information

Carving Duck
  The easiest way is to carve duck into quarters.  Beginning at the neck end, use a sharp knife, kitchen scissors or poultry shears to cut along the length of the breastbone.  Split the duck in half by cutting through the backbone.  Make a diagonal cut between the wings and legs to give four portions.
A duck can also be carved by removing the legs and wings in more or less the same way as for chicken, and then carving  the breast meat in long slices the whole length of the body.


Carving Goose
  Carve with the breast upwards.  First remove the legs or at least one leg, and then the wings or wing.  If the bird is stuffed, Cut thick slices across the body from the neck end.  
Carve thickish slices from either side of the breastbone, taking the slices the length of the body.  Carve the meat off the legs and wings and serve with the breast meat.
