Dec 03, 2014 The incredible super-creamy consistency is owing to my beautiful, brawny blender – the Vitamix Professional Series 750. And as with all the previous recipes in this series, there is one up for grabs for you, too! All you have to do is share an instagram photo of something you made that was inspired by this recipe. Hashtag it with #VitamixSweepstakes before 11:59 PM on December 24, 2014 and cross your fingers! Link to full rules at end of post. Pâté is something my hubby and I always order to share if it’s on the menu. And it’s surprisingly easy to make – finding chicken livers might be the hardest part. (I buy them at an Asian supermarket, where they’re always in stock). The chicken is sauteed until golden along with shallots and thyme before being blended with white wine, heavy cream and butter (the cat’s out of the bag as to why it is so delicious, eh?). I love to serve it casually just as pictured – with the pâté in a large, rustic jar and the pear butter in another, so guests can help themselves, but you can spread them on the toasts in advance if you wish. The full contest rules here. And, once again, I remind you that your photograph will not be judged on how beautiful it is, nor will its subject be judged by how inventive or delicious it was. It’s simply a random draw from all eligible entries. So get in there! I can’t wait to see your submissions!
