Beef liver might be not everyone’s most favorite food, but for me is one of the most delicious meals. In my childhood i would eat beef liver sauteed with onions and sour cream and i loved it.

Liver has a specific texture and you can transform it in to a pate or spread in no time. Add your favorite spices, butter or ghee, some delicious onions and blend it to desired texture to create a beef liver pate.

The mixture should be smooth and not grainy. Add more favorite spices or even vegetables. I am sure it will taste wonderful with roasted jalapenos or red peppers. Or with chopped scallions or cilantro.

Where to buy beef liver

Beef liver is sold in most major supermarkets like Walmart, Safeway and many many more. Its usually sliced and vacuum packed (see picture). It could be found in the freezer section or simply in the fridge.

Can you freeze homemade pate?

Absolutely! Pate freezes very well. Place it in a air tight container and close the lid. You can also place it on a small zip lock bag and remove all the air from it. Keep pate in a freezer for up to 3 months, thaw overnight in the fridge.

How to eat it?

We like to enjoy it just on a piece of toast or on a cracker. For a healthier low carb option you can spread it on cucumber slices, add extra pepper on top!
