Ideally make the liver pate from scratch- it is tasty and simple to whirl together. Fold the blood oranges & fennel together. Spread the pate & marmalade on to the bread with the lettuce. Sandwich together.
There are pate lovers and pate haters. I am a lover. My husband is a hater. But, I may convert him, because apparently Liverwurst (aka poor man’s pate) was his first food as a baby when he swiped a scoop of it off the table and slurped it down happily. Our simple blend of mushrooms, onions & chicken livers made me swoon with joy. He tried it and claimed to ‘not hate it’. What amazes me about pate is how it is cheap and quick to make. Poor guy, marrying me means there may just be a lot more pate in his future.
A Sicilian favorite tosses together these two ingredients for a simple, elegant salad. But, if you insist on lettuce, go for it. Just plop these sweet, floral, licorice-y flavors on top. You may even consider something bitter as the leafy green, such as arugula to balance the sweetness.
The unique flavors of pate & marmalade play off of each other to create a most delightful sandwich. Since there are only four ingredients be sure to use the best you can find. Make a simple pate from scratch, buy it in a specialty grocer, or buy the “poor-man’s pate” of liverwurst. Similarly for the marmalade, winter is a great time to make or buy it fresh.
