Pâté Forestier is a mélange of chicken liver, pork, white wine and cépes. A pâté created to celebrate cépes, the wonderful wild mushrooms are hand-picked in the oak forest of France. Their chefs marinate the cépes in Madeira with wine and Cognac.
This is great for entertaining, putting in a gift basket, just great before my dinner with a vodka martini
Since I'm just beginning my foray into foie gras, I thought I'd start with something simple - this is an excellent choice. Rich and full of flavor, the melding of meat and spice is quite satisfying. Definitely something I'd serve to friends proudly, and I'm looking forward to trying all the other flavors as well..! :)
