Duck Cleaning

Game that is strongly flavored can be improved by soaking the cleaned birds for 2-3 hours in strongly salted water with 1 tsp. baking soda. If ducks prepared this way are to be kept under refrigeration for a few days, after wiping them dry, put a few slices of onion in the body cavity. This will help remove the excess gamey taste, and the onion is to be discarded before the ducks are cooked.

Here are some recipes to get your game to the table (including some that will make it taste good). Wildfowl Game Recipes: Duck, Goose, Pheasant and Turkey!
