Sous vide chicken liver pate
This recipe needs advance preparation!
This was a sous vide experiment to see if I could make chicken liver pate with the absolute minimum of effort. This was really easy to make and was a great success, so much so I used it as stuffing for Sous vide fillet steak with chicken liver pate.
This is a great 'template' for many versions of pate. The temperature and cooking times are work well enough to cook all of the ingredients to the desired consistency, just and mess about with ingredients of your choice.
