Chicken Liver Parfait

"Welcome back, ladies and gentleman, to the final of the world food competition. Pete, are you excited to be here?"
"I am, Tim. I really am. Do you remember what happened last year…"
"I really do, Pete. Pierre de Pate created the ultimate dish, the cheese monstrosity that was the mac 'n' cheese..."
"Tim, holy cow, do you remember what happened to the Australian judge? They took a bite and their clothes just completely flew off, and they started singing and dancing to the 'Mac' arena." (The "pun"isher strikes again). 
"Pete, I know... CURAZY! Can you even imagine what Pierre has brought this year?"
"I know, Tim, I know. Well, let's get back to the action and see what's happening..."

Pierre stares across the room at John Murphey (That's right, he's back! Refer to the naan recipe!). He knew not to take this man lightly. A private eye, of over a hundred cases, his analytical ability for crime was only second to his ability to cook food. Pierre starts madly putting together his ingredients. Chopping, stirring, frying. He had a title to defend and he wasn't about to lose it to some nobody.

John stares carefully at his ingredients. Livers, check. Seasoning check. Cream check. He'd put his heart and soul into this recipe and he knew it had to pay off. He starts madly cooking. Everything is ready, he plates it up and... *Ding* The timer ends.

Pierre walks up to the judges with a confident smile on his face. He puts down three plates all with the same dish on top: spaghetti bolognese. Surprisingly, there is no cheesy goodness mixed through it... The judges each take a bite and smile. Delicious, they think to themselves. Pierre calmly walks back to his cooking station, quietly confident. How could anything top his bolognese! (We all think to ourselves, reading this post, CHEESE PIERRE, CHEESE!!!)

John walks up calmly and places his three dishes in front of the judges. The judges each take a bite. One starts mumbling. Another starts quietly chuckling. The final stares in utter shock. And then… it happens. A light beam strikes down on the three judges and they start floating in the air. “Oh… my… god!!!” They’re transported to a cloud and they’re laughing and frolicking. They’re as happy as children. They smile with joy and then… they’re back. Sitting, staring at John. Chicken liver parfait. Holy cow. So soft, so delicious.

​The judges converse for a few seconds and then, “John, is the new world champion!”

Pierre collapses to the ground as he realises, if only I’d added cheese to the Bolognese… if only. John smiles to himself. Another hard day’s work in the life of a private investigator. Time to go home and order himself some butter chicken and naan.

This recipe comes from Sam Sifton. The only difference, we convert it from a pate into a parfait by putting it through a sieve. We just love the cloudy soft texture and that just fantastic taste. Let us know what you think!


Chicken Liver Parfait
 
Servings                          
8
 
Prep Time:       00:05    
Cook Time:      00:20
 
Main Ingredients 

8 Tbsp of duck fat
2 Medium spring onions (finely chopped)
500 grams ( a pound) of chicken livers
1 Tbs of thyme leaves (chopped)
1/3 Cup of port wine
4 Tbs of heavy cream
1 Tsp of salt

Preparation
  1. Put a large pan over medium heat.
  2. Melt 4 tbsp of duck fat onto the ban and wait for it to start bubbling.
  3. Saute the spring onions (shallots) until soft. Make sure they don't brown as this will change the overall flavor.
  4. Add the livers, the port and the thyme to the pan. Turn the heat up to high. You want to occasionally stir until the wine has reduced and the liver has turned a light brown. It's important that the livers are still pink in the middle for the overall texture. This will take about 5 minutes.
  5. Transfer everything to a blender (we used a stab mixer). Add the remaining duck fat, the cream and the salt and blend until smooth.
  6. Get a sieve and with a spoon, rub the mixture into a bowl. This will create a light and fluffy texture.
  7. Cover and transfer to fridge for 3 hours. Enjoy!
