Zucchini appetizer with cod liver is an exquisite combination of tenderness and rich flavor. This recipe draws inspiration from Russian cuisine, where simplicity and harmony of ingredients are traditionally valued. Zucchini infused with the aroma of Provencal herbs becomes a soft and juicy base. The creamy texture of the liver pâté, complemented by the spiciness of mustard and freshness of onion, creates a layered taste that unfolds with each bite. Salty cheese adds balance to the appetizer, while eggs provide richness. The dish is perfect for a light snack or a festive table.
