Parfait

Pickled Cranberries

Apple and Raisin Compote

Method

Chicken Liver Parfait

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken Livers

    Rinse the chicken livers under cold water and pat them dry. Remove any connective tissue and green spots.

  2. 2

    Cook the Livers

    In a skillet, melt 50g of butter over medium heat. Add chopped onion and garlic, sauté until soft. Add chicken livers and thyme, cook until livers are browned but still slightly pink inside, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Deglaze and Blend

    Add brandy and allow it to evaporate for a minute. Transfer the mixture to a blender, add the remaining butter and heavy cream. Blend until smooth and season with salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Chill

    Pour the mixture into pots and refrigerate until set, about 2 hours.

Pickled Cranberries

  1. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    In a saucepan, combine cranberries, sugar, vinegar, water, and cinnamon stick. Bring to a boil.

  2. 6

    Pickle the Cranberries

    Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes until cranberries burst. Remove from heat and let cool.

Apple and Raisin Compote

  1. 7

    Cook the Compote

    In a saucepan, combine diced apples, raisins, sugar, cinnamon, and water. Cook over medium heat until apples are soft and mixture thickens, about 15 minutes.

Toast

  1. 8

    Prepare the Toast

    Slice the baguette and brush with olive oil. Toast in an oven or skillet until golden brown.
