I made this for the first time for a fund raising event I hosted last spring. Having never made pate from scratch before, I did a trial run with a small gathering of friends. They loved it so much that they told me I had to do it for the fund raiser (since most of them where to be in attendance, I figured this was a good endorsement). In truth, it was easy to prepare, extremely flavorful, and when set out in ramekins (I used small white Souffle dishes) surrounded by small toast, and cornichons, made for a great presentation.




Wonderful Pate!

Made this for a holiday party and everyone loved it (even people who didn't think they'd like pate). I did make a few changes: Increased the amount of liver slightly, decreased the amount of butter and green peppercorns. Also, did not put green peppercorns on top.

The best pate' I've had - as good or better than that of fine restaurants. Green peppercorns are not capers. I couldn't find them in brine, so I used dried ones, found in the spice section, and rehydrated them in white wine for about 1.5 hours while the livers soaked in the milk. I then smashed them slightly so they were not all whole. I used the brandy rather than the cognac. If you don't like this, you just don't like pate'!

skip the two hours of soaking - it really won't make a whole lot of difference. and to answer a previous reviewer - no green peppercorn are not capers. overall though, this is better then most pates you find in stores.

Once you get past the 2 hour soaking time....this is a DIVINE treat! Even for someone who is cooking challenged such as myself, this is easy to make.

Extremely easy to prepare, (after I realized green peppercorns were actually capers.) are they? Very tasty I got rave reviews at a party from people who claim they know how to make pate.




pretty good

Tasted a whole lot like Oscar Mayer liver sausage. This is not a dig at the recipe as it is pretty tasty.

Oh my,somebody get me a Depends........ I wanted to try something different and boy, this was it! I was going to leave out the last quarter stick of butter, then thought better of it. The butter made it fluffy and light, and the taste is exquisite. The thyme brings a nice zing to it. I will definitely use this again. In fact, it may not make it to the Superbowl Party tomorrow.




No one liked it
