Thanks Elle I think this is fabulous. Thanks so much, really delicious.
I don’t have vermouth or brandy. 😢 Other options?
How long will this keep in the frig?
Can it be frozen?
Hello
😋😎
To further reduce the “liver-ness” taste that some find a turn-off, I poach the trimmed livers in red wine before sautéing with shallots. Discard red wine. The wine removes all hints of the tannins in the livers. I have also used duck fat (when I can find it) to ramp up the richness. And I add coarsely ground black pepper.
I LOVE being able to find all these videos on YouTube!!! Thanks for this one!
Je prefere aussi la recette de ma grand-mere. Elle aimait toujours y mettre un coup d'Armagnac. Quel souvenir. Merci.
I've always hated liver but a while back I was served some pork liver pate in a German restaurant. OMG, is was one of the best things I've ever tasted. Rich and savory, but not "livery" at all. I'm anxious to see how this recipe compares.
I made this yesterday, pate was on my bucket list to make . It came out great!😃😃😃
I use duck fat to cook my chicken liver 🤫
Do you have a vegetarian version, not necessarily vegan (love my butter). Would love to have this in both mock and traditional versions for my next Passover Seder.
It does not pay to be a chicken, even if you're free range. If they don't get you when you're an egg, you end up in the frying pan or oven, or having your liver removed and made into a nice pate that can be shared with the whole family, with the scraps going to the Family Dog.
You are a cooking teacher. Thank you for the recipe.
There's no link to this recipe as promised at the end of the video! Can't find it on the website.
Thanks for having actual captions for the Deaf. Makes ATK YouTube even better!
You got my view because I love chicken livers so much, but Breville did this recipe several years ago with Magnus Nilsson. Still a great reminder though, even if I made it wrong the first time.
Is there a really good beef liver pate recipe? The ones I’ve tried haven’t been the best. Thanks.!!
Sounds disgusting
This seems a hell of a lot easier than I would have anticipated. I am going to make this soon to have with eggs
Wow, what happened the instructions I posted???
I really wanted to try this recipe, but could not find it on the ATK website so have copied the instructions as Elle presented them.

I have never had chicken livers. I am generally not a liver fan, but I do love a good liverwurst (hard to find a good one!). I cannot find liverwurst locally (Philippines), and doubt goose is very common here either. I will have to try this recipe. 😎
Really amazing I enjoyed watching your video, you're working hard too. Your style of cooking is very unique. I like to see different cultural foods and styles. May God help you to succeed in your goal. You will definitely progress. Really amazing 👏 keep it up.
