Country Pâté Ingredients

Method

Country Pâté Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Onion Confit

    In a skillet over medium heat, add a tablespoon of oil and the finely chopped onions. Cook slowly until they are caramelized and golden brown, about 20-25 minutes. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the ground pork shoulder, ground pork liver, caramelized onions, minced garlic, thyme, bay leaves, salt, black pepper, brandy, diced pork fat, and beaten egg. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Baking Dish

    Preheat the oven to 160°C (320°F). Line a loaf pan or terrine mold with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.

  4. 4

    Fill the Mold

    Transfer the mixture into the prepared loaf pan, pressing down to remove any air pockets. Smooth the top with a spatula.

  5. 5

    Bake the Pâté

    Cover the loaf pan with foil and place it in a water bath (a larger baking dish filled with water). Bake in the preheated oven for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 70°C (160°F).

  6. 6

    Cool and Serve

    Remove the pâté from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set. Serve chilled with slices of baguette and traditional condiments.
