損 ingredients
損 1kg of duck liver 475ml of milk 100ml of water 1
garlic clove
損 2 shallots 2 bay leaves 6 sprigs of thyme 1 sprig
fresh rosemary 150ml of port 150ml of brandy 150ml of
Madeira
損 300g of butter 2 smoked duck breasts salt
white pepper
損 olive oil
損 Fine sieve
損 Bain marie
損 Thermometer
損 Liquidiser
損 2 pint terrine mould
損 Two days before serving, soak the duck livers in the milk and water with a good pinch of salt - this will help
to reduce any bitterness
損 The day before serving, start making the terrine. Slice the shallots, crush the garlic and place both in a
wide pan with the fresh rosemary, sprigs of thyme, bay leaves, brandy, port and Madeira. Heat gently,
reducing down until you have approximately 100ml remaining and then pass through a fine sieve
損 Slowly melt the butter in a small pan
損 Drain the duck livers, rinse off then dry off and excess liquid. Using a high-powered liquidiser, place half of
the livers, half of the reduction and half of the butter in the liquidiser
損 Blend the mix until very smooth, then pass through a fine sieve. Repeat again with the remaining duck
livers, reduction and butter
損 Season well with salt and white pepper and taste a small amount of the mix to ensure that it is seasoned
correctly - note that it should be slightly over-seasoned as it will be served at room temperature
損 Preheat the oven to 110属C/Gas mark 村
損 Line a 2 pint terrine mould with cling film that has been lightly oiled on both sides. Pour the mix in - it
should come just to the top
損 Bake the terrine in a bain marie in the oven for 50 minutes. To check it is done, insert a temperature
probe - the parfait should be 63属C in the centre
損 Once cooked, remove from the oven, allow to chill and then refrigerate overnight
損 To serve, unmould the duck liver parfait, slice off the ends and discard. Slice off a 1cm thick slice and place
on a small slate or starter plate
損 Slice the smoked duck breast on an angle and lay over the duck liver parfait. Serve with warm toast and
chutney
