Recipe's Ingredients

  Quantities for people → Recalculate
  • 1 small onion, peeled and chopped
  • 1 small granny smith apple, peeled, cored, and chopped
  • 4 tablespoons goose fat
  • ¼ teaspoons powdered sage
  • ¼ teaspoons white pepper
  • ½ teaspoons dried thyme leaves
  • liquefied goose fat
  • 450 g chicken livers, cleaned and trimmed
  • 120 g soft butter
  • 60 ml cognac
  • 80 ml heavy cream
  • Recipe preparation steps

  • 1
    Melt 2 tablespoons goose fat in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the livers, sage, and white pepper. Cook the livers until firm, but still pink in the center. Increase heat to high, add the cognac, and ignite. When the flames die out, transfer the livers with all their cooking liquid to a bowl and place in the refrigerator.
  • 2
    Melt another tablespoon of goose fat in the same frying pan over medium heat. Add the onion, apple, and thyme. Lower the heat and cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the contents of the frying pan to the livers in the bowl and continue to cool to about room temperature.
  • 3
    Place all the cooked ingredients along with the butter and cream in the bowl of a food processor. Purée until the mixture is very smooth. Force the purée through a sieve.
  • 4
    Spoon the purée into a 675-gram terrine. Level and smooth the top. Cover the surface with a couple of millimeters (about a tablespoon) of liquefied, but not too hot, goose fat. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
