Turkey Pâté
Description
Perfect for the table and with drinks. Homemade pâté is always delicious. Sandwiches with this pâté and a cup of tea make a wonderful breakfast; for a holiday table, you can stuff hard-boiled eggs with this pâté, or serve it nicely on crackers or toasted bread pieces. You can also tweak the flavor slightly—add nuts, herbs, or even a spoonful of cognac. Try different variations, and I’ll tell you more. It can be served warm or chilled.

Step 4
Transfer the slightly cooled meat and vegetables to a blender, add butter, and blend everything into a smooth mixture. Add the liquid remaining in the bag after baking the meat and vegetables in small portions. This way you can adjust the consistency of your pâté. Let the finished pâté rest in the refrigerator for a while. Then it will not be like purée, but slightly firmer.
