Mushroom pate
15 servings
60 minutes
For mushroom pate, you can use champignons or wild mushrooms that you picked yourself. In the second case, it is important to remember that some mushrooms will have to be boiled first. The recipe requires some time: in order for the pate to acquire flavor, it should be left in the refrigerator for a day or two. Our recipe uses milk, cream, and butter, but if you replace the oils with vegetable oils and the milk with coconut oil, then even vegetarians can eat the mushroom pate.
