Smoked Salmon Rillette, Cured Venison/Pork Salami, Upland Bird Pate. Everything homemade, including the board and the knife. But not the bread. I draw the line at bread. Baking sucks.

What is your recipe for pate?

Pate is pretty easy. Take about a pound of livers, soak for a few hours in milk, if you want to decrease the iron flavor. Saute 2 shallots in 1 tbs butter with a few sprigs of thyme until they are soft 5-7 min over med high heat, then add livers and cook for 2-3 min. Then add 2 tbs brandy and cook for another min. Remove from heat and remove thyme sprigs. When cooled a bit add ingredients to a food processor with a pate spice blend. I usually make mine out of clove, cinnamon, allspice, juniper, white pepper, nutmeg, coriander, and ginger. Blend, and add 1 tbs of butter at a time until it's thickened. Usually use about 2-3 sticks. Strain through a fine mesh twice and pour into a ramekin. Let cook overnight.
Served best with some mustard, pickles and a French baguette. But hey ya'll can do what you want.
