Free-Range Capon Cooking Suggestions 

• Roasting: Slow roast at a lower temperature to render fat and keep it juice, baste occasionally.
• Braising: Braise in a rich stock or wine with aromatics, which tenderises the meat and enhances the flavour.
• Stuffed and Roasted: Stuff the capon with herbs, garlic, citrus or even dried fruits for a flavourful centre.
• Spatchcock and Grill: Split it flat, marinate and grill for an evenly cooked, crispy skin.
• Confit: Slow-cook the capon legs in fat, then crisp them up in a hot oven or skillet.

Free-Range Capon Serving Suggestions

• Root Vegetables: Roasted carrots, parsnips, potatoes or turnips complement the rich flavour.
• Wild Rice or Farro: Earthy grains pair well with capon’s mild flavour.
• Herbed Potatoes: Crispy, herb-infused potatoes or creamy mashed potatoes work beautifully.
• Seasonal Greens: Serve with sauteed or steamed greens like Swiss chard, kale or spinach.
• Red Wine Reduction: A rich, reduced wine sauce brings out the flavours.
• Cranberry or Lingonberry Sauce: Adds a sweet and tangy contrast.
• Cider-Braised Apples: Sweet, slightly tangy apples add complexity to the meal.

Please note: The bird will be gutted but with giblets left in. Also, it will come with its head on and feathers off.
