Pâté Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Liver

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt 50 grams of butter. Add the finely chopped shallots and sauté until soft. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Blend the Mixture

    In a food processor, combine the duck or goose liver, sautéed shallots, remaining butter, brandy, port wine, heavy cream, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy.

  3. 3

    Mold the Pâté

    Transfer the mixture into a terrine or pâté mold. Smooth the top with a spatula. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to set.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Once set, unmold the pâté onto a serving platter. Garnish with frisée lettuce and serve with cornichons on the side.
