Ingredients

  • 600 g ground pork shoulder
  • 300 g chicken livers trimmed
  • 200 g pork belly minced
  • 150 g smoked bacon strips (for lining)
  • 2 shallots finely diced
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 3 tbsp Cognac
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp fresh thyme
  • 1 tsp quatre-épices
  • 1/2 tsp allspice
  • 2 bay leaves
  • Fleur de sel, black pepper

Instructions

  • Finely chop chicken livers. Mix with all meats, shallots, garlic, Cognac, eggs, thyme, and spices. Season generously.
  • Test seasoning: fry a small patty and taste — terrine must be aggressively seasoned when raw.
  • Line a 1.5L terrine mould with strips of bacon, overlapping and leaving ends overhanging.
  • Pack meat mixture firmly into the mould, pressing to eliminate air. Fold over bacon ends. Add bay leaves on top.
  • Cover with foil. Place in a bain-marie. Bake at 160°C for 1.5 hours until juices run clear.
  • Press with a weight while cooling. Refrigerate 48 hours before serving.
  • Serve sliced with cornichons, Dijon, and a fresh salad.
