Snack of the day!
Servings: 0
My choice for snack of the day is a crunchy Sonoran style Mexican and Jewish deli mashup. Chopped liver pate smeared onto pork rinds and topped with cornichons!
Ingredients
- 1 cup chicharrones
- 1/2 cup prepared chopped chicken liver pate
- 1/3 cup cornichons
Instructions
- This may seem like an unlikely, (and un-kosher) combination at first, but the pork rinds add a nice crunch without distracting too much from the chopped liver, and the cornichons add just the right amount of salty bite.
- I love chopped liver but I haven't been able to figure out how to make it as well as the deli up the street.
- I asked them for the recipe, and all the person behind the counter knew was a list of ingredients: eggs, chicken liver, chicken fat, onion, garlic, salt; which are common to all chopped liver recipes.
- When I figure it out I'll post the recipe here. I'm starting with this one from this month's Saveur Magazine.
Notes
Update:
I made Saveur's recipe for chopped liver today and it turned out perfectly. It's similar to the $16.00 a pound version from the deli, but it only cost me about $3.00 to make!
