For those new to eating liver, chicken livers are much more mellow in flavor than beef or bison liver. Lamb liver are not quite as mellow as chicken, but definitely more so than beef.

Serves 4

INGREDIENTS:

1/2 pound chicken livers, cleaned and coarsely chopped
2 bacon slices, chopped
1 cup sliced medium mushrooms (any kind you prefer)
1 onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
fresh thyme sprig, or pinch of dried
1 bay leaf
1 stick butter
1-2 tablespoons brandy (optional)
3 tablespoons fresh green peppercorns in brine
salt


COOKING PROCEDURE: How is liver pate made?

1) Sauté bacon, onion, garlic, mushrooms, livers and herbs in half the butter for 10 minutes until cooked. Discard the bay leaf.

2) Spoon into a blender or food processor with the pan juices and brandy and blend until smooth.

3) Stir in 2 tablespoons of the peppercorns, if using, and add salt to taste. Spoon into a 2-cup serving dish and smooth the top.

4) Clarify remaining butter by heating it until it foams, then strain through cheesecloth. (5 Easy Steps to Make Clarified Butter)

5) Sprinkle remaining peppercorns over pate and pour over melted clarified butter.

6) Refrigerate until set, and then serve with toast.

Cooking Notes: Fresh green peppercorns in brine are available in jars or small cans from delicatessens, large supermarkets and on Amazon.com. They are quite soft, and so can be crushed easily.

Julia Child's cooking tip called for cooking the diced chicken livers until “stiffened, but still rosy inside.” That is the key to chicken liver mousse that does not taste wrong.

Chicken Liver Pate and Foie Gras also need wines with some sweetness. Late harvested wines such as Chenin Blanc, Semillon or Sauvignon work exceptionally well.

Liver pate and Sauternes have been perfect pairing friends for decades, but if it is a lighter mousse (instead of sliced, sautéed) you could go for a Pinot Gris (not Pinot Grigio).

If it is a gamier pâté, you could try earthy but not too heavy reds like Pinot Noir.

CHICKEN LIVER PATE WITH BACON- JAMIE OLIVER FAQs



How long does homemade chicken liver pate last?

7-8 days

From my experience, 7-8 days is the limit for homemade chicken liver pate in the refrigerator. I recommend you to freeze the rest in single-serve portions. It will keep a lot longer and not lose any quality when you defrost it.


How long can you freeze "chicken liver pate with bacon jamie oliver" ?

2 months

Yes, you can freeze chicken liver pate.

Wrap the chicken pate well and freeze for up to 2 months. Defrost overnight in the fridge and remove from the fridge an hour (less if it is very hot) before serving to take off the chill off.


How can you tell if chicken liver is bad?

A test for age or shelf life would be to sniff the liver — an ammonia-like odor is a warning sign.

Also, feel the liver if you can. Julia Child said a liver should be "slightly moist but not slimy." At times, the plastic packaging can make the liver feel slimy. Rinse it in cold water and check the liver again.

While chicken liver is high in cholesterol, this is not an issue for most people. Just eat in moderation.

Another common concern about eating liver is that it may contain toxins. However, the liver does not store toxins. Its function is to process toxins and make them safe or turn them into something that can be safely removed from the body.
