Mock Pate De Foie Gras Recipe
MRS. BLAIR.
Rub the bottom of a stew-pan five times across with a piece of fresh cut
garlic, put in three pounds of larded calf's liver, with two chopped
shallots, a laurel leaf, a bay leaf, a blade of mace, four pepper corns,
two cloves, a saltspoonful of salt, a saltspoonful of loaf sugar, and
half a pint of stock: simmer gently for four hours. Then cut the liver
into thin slices, place in a basin, and cover with the liquid: let it
remain until next day. Then pound the liver to a paste, add a
tablespoonful of salt, a saltspoonful of white pepper; add three
quarters of a pound of clarified butter; pound well together and pass
through a wire sieve; put into pots; smooth over the top with a knife,
then pour over hot clarified butter or lard and keep in a cool place.
