  • So, here's the recipe for goose liver pâté: Prep the liver first — rinse it, pat it dry, and remove any veins. Melt about 1½ tablespoons (20 g) of the butter in a saucepan along with the vegetable oil. Add the prepared liver and cook over low heat for up to seven minutes, turning to brown all sides. Season to taste with pepper and salt as it cooks. Add the cream and simmer over very low heat for another couple of minutes. Peel, wash, and dice the shallots and carrot. Lightly sauté the vegetables over medium heat with a little oil until soft. Transfer the contents of the saucepan to a bowl and blend at medium speed until smooth. Add the sautéed vegetables to the mousse and blend well again until uniform. Adjust the seasoning if needed to bring the pâté to a perfect flavor. Spoon the pâté into small molds or ramekins and smooth the tops. To keep the pâté from drying out before serving, melt the remaining butter (about 50 g) and pour it over the top. Garnish with herbs or seasonings, chill for half an hour, and serve. Enjoy!
