California Farm Cashew Foie Gras Pate

After making imitation foie gras from pork liver, and making blue cheese from cashew nuts, I feel confident enough to try this cashew foie gras recipe, guided by the posted recipes from Chef Fabrien Borgel in Paris and Thomas from Fullofplants.
Force feeding geese for goose liver foie gras is not allowed in California, and we agree, we dont want to see our own or other geese force fed. However, in nature, geese feed themselves before winter migration, it doubles their liver. Six weeks after start of migration, their livers are back to normal. So we feed our geese unlimited before winter butchering.
The cashew fois gras pate is a delicious spread.

California Farm Duck Country Pate California Farm Duck Country Pate
The fat of ducks is in the skin to keep this waterbird warm. I make duck pate with skin, fat, scraped carcass meat and duck liver and chicken liver. Wrapped in thinly sliced bacon. The molten fat makes an airtight cap over the pate, it preserves the creaminess.There is enough weight in the duck skin, scraped meat, fat and liver to make four pounds of country pate. Country pate is made without cream. Foie gras pate is made with cream. A duck liver weighs 50 grams, I add chicken livers to make duck pate creamier.To taste unadulterated flavor of duck, a quick roast of an unseasoned bird will deliver crisp skin, scraped meat, and molten fat as ingredients for the duck pate. The addition of mild chicken liver and pork bacon wrap will not diminish or alter the delicate duck flavor or texture in this country pate. Hobby Horseman -
