Description

Pâté is a delicious reason to pull out your favorite mustard, pickled vegetables and bread. According to Chef Mathew Malloy, starting with the highest quality meat possible is the best way to ensure a delicious terrine.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb, 6 oz Lean Rabbit, cut into small chunks
  • 5 oz Lean pork butt, cut into small chunks
  • 1 lb fatback, cut into small chunks
  • 10 oz liver (Rabbit is ideal, sub chicken or duck livers if necessary)
  • 10 slices of bacon, pounded lightly to thin
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2/3 c onion (sweated with the garlic)
  • 4 Tablespoons chopped parsley
  • 1 teaspoon thyme leaves
  • 30 g sea salt
  • 3 g instacure #1
  • ¾ teaspoons ground white pepper
  • ¾ teaspoons fennel seed, toasted and ground
  • Zest of 1/2 Orange, grated on a microplane

Panada

  • 2 oz heavy cream
  • 2 eggs
  • ¾ oz flour
  • ¾ oz brandy
  • 2/3 c Toasted Pistachios
  • 1/3 c rabbit stock (OPTIONAL)

Instructions

  1. Grind thoroughly chilled rabbit, pork and pork fat through the coarse die on the grinder, doing each one separately and keeping them separate.
  2. Reserve 1# of the coarsely ground rabbit. Grind the remaining rabbit, pork, coarsely ground pork fat, liver and seasonings on the medium die.
  3. Combine panada in a bowl until smooth. Add to ground meat mixture and mix in the Hobart on low speed until combined. Fold in the pistachios. With machine running, drizzle in the rabbit stock Mix on medium speed for 30 seconds to one minute until sticky to the touch.
  4. Pack into terrine molds lined with plastic and the flattened bacon strips (approximately 10 per terrine mold- lining the bottom and sides of the mold, wrapping the ends over the top of the farce to wrap completely. The pounded bacon strips should just overlap over the top of the farce).
  5. Cook in a waterbath in a 300 degree oven until 155 degree internal temp. Allow to set up overnight.

  • What an awesome starter to any meal… Love it!

    All your articles and recommendations are great, Michelle. Look forward to hearing more about your food adventures.

  • I was confused about what “1# of rabbit” meant so I asked a friend who is a restaurant chef and he explained that “#” is restaurant shorthand for a pound. You learn something new every day!






  • Completely true – I was just about to ask the same thing.
    Can’t wait to try it on the weekend… testing it out on my French friends !
