TURKEY, CHICKEN LIVER, AND MUSHROOM PâTé
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Pulse onion and garlic in a food processor until finely chopped. Add mushrooms and pulse until finely chopped, scraping down bowl frequently, then stir in salt, pepper, and spices (this makes a duxelles).
- Cook duxelles in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderate heat, stirring, until a shade darker and most of liquid mushrooms give off has evaporated, about 10 minutes. (Duxelles should not be dry in this recipe.)
- Soak baguette pieces in milk in a large bowl until milk is absorbed. Stir in egg white, parsley, brandy, turkey, liver, and ham, then duxelles until combined well.
- Spoon into lightly oiled terrine and bake, uncovered, in middle of oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted 2 inches into center registers 170°F and top is firm and browned, about 1 hour and 10 minutes. Transfer terrine to a rack and cool. Chill, covered, at least 8 hours (overnight) for flavors to develop.
- To unmold pâté, drain off any liquid in terrine, then loosen bottom with a spatula. Invert pâté onto a plate, then reinvert onto a serving platter. Cut into slices with a serrated knife and bring to room temperature.
