Ingredients
- 8 ounces chicken livers or duck or goose livers
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 medium shallot minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- ½ teaspoon sea salt or more to taste
- ½ teaspoon black pepper or more to taste
- ½ cup water
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
Instructions
- Remove connective tissue from chicken livers.
- In a pan over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter. Add garlic and shallots; cook for 1 min.
- Add water, sea salt, black pepper, thyme, and chicken livers. Increase heat, bring to a simmer. Reduce heat, cover, and cook for 4-8 mins, stirring occasionally, until livers are barely pink inside and lightly browned outside.
- Turn off heat. Cover livers for 5 mins, then drain liquid.
- Transfer the liver mix to a blender. Blend until smooth, adding cream and remaining butter gradually. Adjust cream for desired consistency. Add more black pepper and sea salt as needed.
- Put the mixture into ramekins. Tightly wrap in plastic wrap, ensuring it touches the top to exclude air. Secure with rubber bands.
Notes
- For the best taste, make sure the livers are just barely pink on the inside.
- To make the mixture smoother, add the cream slowly while mixing.
- Make changes to the seasonings based on your taste.
- For less salt, use butter that hasn’t been treated.
- Securing things with rubber bands and tightly wrapping them in plastic helps keep them fresh.
