Baked pate with mushrooms

6 servings

90 minutes

Baked mushroom pâté is an elegant and refined dish of European cuisine, captivating with its delicate taste and rich aroma. The origins of such pâté trace back to French gastronomy traditions, where liver dishes are valued for their velvety texture and rich flavor. In this recipe, chicken liver harmoniously combines with the sweetness of red onion, carrot, and a light grainy accent of semolina. The addition of fresh mushrooms gives it a refined forest aftertaste. Baking under foil helps retain juiciness, while overnight cooling makes the texture dense and rich. This pâté is perfect as a standalone dish or an exquisite appetizer on crispy bread, with ketchup adding a spicy note that highlights its gastronomic perfection.
