Did you know? - WikiMD has over 50,000 keto friendly recipes with a color coded ketometer rating scale!
- Wash the chicken livers and remove any excess white or yellow membrane. Wash again. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon salt over the chicken livers and mix thoroughly.
- Pour enough milk over the livers to cover. Refrigerate overnight. (Note: Soaking the chicken livers overnight in milk reduces the strength of liver flavor. I recommend to include this step..
- The next day, rinse the livers and chop into smaller pieces. Set aside.
- Saute one small diced onion and six cloves of garlic. Don't worry if they aren't too uniform as everything gets pureed anyway.
- When the onions have slightly softened, add the chopped livers and 1/2 cup white wine OR 1 tablespoon cognac.
- Saute until cooked and continue simmering for another 5 minutes or so until liquid reduces. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons fish sauce, and 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
- Set mixture aside to slightly cool.
- After alowing the mixture to cool a bit then puree in a food processor along with one stick (8 tablespoons) of butter. The heat of the warm mix will melt the butter and allow easy incorporation. Process until smooth. Pour mixture into ramekins lightly coated with butter.
- Add just enough butter to coat the top of each container to prevent drying of the surface of the pate. Note: it is best to melt the butter at its lowest possible temperature, this will prevent re-liquefying of the pate and then pour this on as a thin layer on top of the pate in the dishes. Store refrigerated.
- IMPORTANT NOTES: Regular butter to seal the Pate will need to be brought to room temperature to allow the butter seal to be spreadable. For food safety, the Pate must not be unrefrigerated for more than 2 hours in total time after cooking. This means if it is brought out of the fridge for use then returned, It is only safe for a total sum of two hours out of the fridge. If it's during hot weather or a very warm room {more than 90F}, then this time must be reduced to one hour. It is best to cut off a segment and place it on a serving dish returning the sealed unused portion immediately to the refrigerator to eliminated the doubt. The pate will keep in the fridge for five days. It may be stored frozen for 1 month. Make sure that the pate is covered if returned to the fridge after the butter seal has been cut.
-
ONE MORE NOTE: After cooking, liver tends to turn a pasty gray and ashen color which is quite unappealing. Add a few drops of red food coloring for aesthetics, if desired.
