Recipe: The “Can’t-Even-Taste-the-Liver” Patê

Making Homemade Liver Patê

Have you tried liver before and immediately thought, “Nope, not for me!”? Don’t worry, you’re not alone. Liver is one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet, but its unique flavor can be intimidating. That’s why we created the “Can’t-Even-Taste-the-Liver” Patê. It’s creamy, savory, and sneaky, so you get all the health benefits without the liver taste.

Here’s why you should consider adding liver and other organ meats to your diet:

• Liver is a nutrient powerhouse. It’s packed with vitamin A, B12, folate, iron, and CoQ10, all of which support energy, metabolism, immune function, and even skin health.
• Heart is full of CoQ10. This helps support your cardiovascular system and hormone balance, making it a great addition for endurance and recovery.
• Kidney is rich in protein, selenium, and naturally occurring DAO. DAO helps break down histamine in the digestive tract, supporting gut and immune health.

Even our ancestors knew it. Organ meats were considered “superfoods” and often reserved for children, mothers, and elders. Today, you can enjoy their benefits in a modern, easy-to-eat form.

Ingredients:

• 1 package of grassfed bison or beef liver
• 1/2 cup raw apple cider vinegar
• 3 to 5 strips of pastured pork bacon
• 1/2 cup grassfed butter
• 1/2 large or 1 small organic onion
• 1/2 teaspoon pink salt
• 1 to 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, optional

How to Make It:

1. Prep the liver. Place thawed liver in a bowl with apple cider vinegar for 10 minutes, flipping halfway. This tenderizes the liver and helps mellow the flavor.
2. Cook the bacon. Fry until crispy and save the bacon fat. Chop half of it for the patê, and save the rest for topping later.
3. Sauté the onions. Dice and sauté onions in the bacon fat for 1 to 2 minutes. Add rosemary if you like. This brings sweetness and extra flavor.
4. Cook the liver. Rinse the liver with water, then add the liver and butter to the pan. Cover and cook for 2 minutes per side over medium heat. Don’t overcook—the liver should stay tender.
5. Blend it. Combine the liver, onions, rosemary, melted butter, salt, and half of the bacon in a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy.
6. Assemble. Scoop the mixture into a container, flatten it, and sprinkle the remaining bacon bits on top.
7. Chill and serve. Refrigerate until firm. Enjoy on crackers, veggie sticks, or even by the spoonful.
