grate of nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon
2 TB. Excellent Cognac
1 cup chilled heavy cream
2 TB. Minced shallots

2/3 cup boiled ham finely diced

  • Add ham, pistachio nuts, cognac and chopped shallots shallots
  • Pack mixture into a lightly buttered terrine or loaf pan and bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for about an hour and a half to two hours. The internal temperature should read 170 degrees.

    This pate is wonderful with crackers, brioche or sour dough French bread.

    You can also freeze the pate in the pan before cooking. Cover it with plastic wrap and then aluminum foil, Thaw it before baking.
