Tips:

  • To ensure the smoothest pâté, use a food processor or blender to blend the livers until they are very fine.
  • If you don't have a food processor or blender, you can also mash the livers by hand with a fork, but it will take longer and the pâté may not be as smooth.
  • Be sure to cook the livers until they are no longer pink in the center. This will help to prevent them from becoming tough and dry.
  • Don't overcook the livers, or they will become tough and dry.
  • Season the pâté to taste with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices.
  • For a richer flavor, use a combination of chicken livers and pork livers.
  • If you want a smoother pâté, strain it through a fine-mesh sieve before serving.
  • Serve the pâté with crackers, bread, or vegetables.
