The pâté is a food easy to prepare and can serve for many occasions, especially when you have meetings, parties or you want a snack.

Hey, this is amazing because time ago I used to eat a lot of pate and it was like my favorite food but then I became vegetarian and I had to forget about it since industrially it is only made with meat and animal parts, so thanks a lot for coming with this, I would love to eat pate again!

So, here in the states we don’t eat that much pate, and I’ve always felt like it was a rather “couture” dish in pretty much all the other countries around the world, and now after reading this article, I’m pretty sure I could make my own pate and make it a big hit. Thanks so much for the wonderful recipes@!
