Prunes give the pate not only a fruity flavor, but also a hint of light smokedness. The cognac is not just there for show: the aroma of the oak barrel ennobles the liver. Follow the sequence of actions precisely : first soak the berries in cognac, and only then chop and add everything together. If you do not soak them, but add them separately, then the cognac in such an insignificant dose will be lost in the pate mass, and the prunes, on the contrary, will not merge with it , but will remain in the form of hard inclusions. If the combination of fruit and meat seems too unusual to you, you can leave only the cognac from the prunes.
