Pate de foie genre charcutier

12 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 pounds Pork liver
¾ pounds Lean pork
¾ pounds Fat salt pork
1 small White onion
1 small Clove garlic
1 tablespoon Flour
1 teaspoon Salt
½ teaspoon Ground thyme
1 tablespoon Finely chopped parsley
2 larges Eggs
¼ pounds Salt pork

Directions

Put the first 5 ingredients through a food chopper, using the finest blade. Blend in the flour and seasonings and mix well with a wooden spoon. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Line the bottom and the sides of a 9 x 5 x 3" loaf pan with thin slices of salt pork. Fill the pan with the mixture. Cover the top with thin slices of salt pork. Cover the loaf pan with foil and set it in a larger pan containing boiling water. Bake in a preheated moderate oven (350^F) 1.¾ ~ 2 hours.

Cool. Unmold and cut the pate into slices for serving. The pate will keep in the refrigerator for about 10 days. I have sliced it and wrapped the slices well and frozen them. Then I just had to take out as many slices as needed for the first - appetizer ~ course.
