Chicken liver parfait
Costs about as much as a sandwich and keeps a week under a butter seal, which makes it the most useful thing here to have already made.

Method
6 steps · 30 minutes
- Trim the livers of anything green or stringy and pat them dry.
- Soften the shallot in a third of the butter, then turn the heat up and sear the livers 90 seconds a side. Pink in the middle — they carry on cooking in the blender.
- Add the brandy and let it bubble away for 30 seconds, scraping the base.
- Blend the lot with the cream, the thyme leaves and the remaining butter, softened rather than melted, until completely smooth.
- Push it through a strainer. This is the step that separates parfait from pâté and it is worth the five minutes.
- Pack into a jar or ramekins, then pour a thin layer of melted butter over the surface to seal it. Chill 4 hours before eating.
