I made chicken liver pate a couple or more times before
but not really satisfied with the results.
for Dorie's recipe - I made half using roughly 400gms of liver (before prep):
I chopped my cooked liver in an electric chopper and
it became pate and not merely chopped!

BELOW:
In glass container - I drizzled some oil from my (potato-in-a-jar ~ see below)
and tossed a teaspoon of capers for garnish, served with toasted slices of baguette
BELOW:
and as Dorie did - slater your bread with mayo
add a layer of chopped liver
topped with lettuce and tomato
and we are good to go!
I do believe that the crispy fried onions (I used small shallots)
makes a huge difference! I quite like it!

DH skipped this and the liver!!

love the potato-in-a-jar (will make it again)
salmon ? not too sure

Electric chopper. Good call! I think I got a bit to in-touch w/the livers to truely enjoy this. Well done! :)
ReplyDeleteI think I would have liked this even more as a pate! But I still enjoyed. I enjoyed the salmon, too :)
ReplyDeleteBravo for taking on both of these in the same week!
ReplyDeleteThe salmon was a tough one for many of us :-)
Yes! A drizzle of oil to finish! Good call!
ReplyDeleteWow that sandwich looks incredible :)
ReplyDeleteYes, Mardi's right. The sandwich looks amazing. Nice job, Emily!
ReplyDeletecraving for the food
ReplyDeleteEmily, you certainly did a wonderful job with both recipes - it all looks fabulously delicious!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend!
That is one fantastic looking sandwich. Glad you liked this one.
ReplyDeleteBoth of your dishes turned out beautifully.
Your dish looks delicious! I love the idea of the sandwich. I can see that in my future (today!)
ReplyDeleteI think I really prefer your "pate" version. Something about the chunkiness of mine did not help the cause :) And that sandwich looks fabulous. Can't believe you also knocked out that unusual salmon in the jar also. Two challenging recipes in one week. Extra credit points for sure :)
ReplyDeleteEmily, a lot of people seem to make chopped liver just like you - if you Google it chopped liver images come up as a smooth paste. So you are with the majority there! You are braver than me - I skipped salmon in a jar.
ReplyDeleteWow. That looks great! Kudos for trying it!
ReplyDeleteWow, Emily, I am impressed. First, you did lovely things with your chicken livers, ending up with your Paté. Beautiful presentation. That sandwich looks like a "killer" in every sense of the word!!! And, your make-ups. Good for you!
ReplyDeleteWhat a brave post! Two tough recipes in one. I wasn't brave enough to make the liver. I also remember liking the potatoes in a jar better than the salmon.
