Liver.

.
.
I had to get to the liver.  Still, I wanted to taste some of it.  To track how well it does in the freezer.

The first batch was breakfast... a second breakfast.  And?  It was very good.  I used less butter, and less bacon fat.  The bacon fat was just that remaining from the four or five bits of bacon for breakfast, in which the eggs were also cooked.  Quite a nice lot, that.  As well, I used red wine vinegar, with the mother, to deglaze from the bacon and onion.  Which I cooked off... not wanting much vinegar taste.  That worked quite well.  I would guess using red wine, or red wine vinegar, to the point it was cooked off, would make little difference.

Yes, that was a very good little extra part to breakfast.  A bit grainier, due to freezing, but not a major concern.  I doubt if most would notice.  I only noticed because I was being extra perceptive, as is possible, while tasting.  It wasn't all of it, not yet.  But... on the edges, in the thinner pieces?  I can't be sure on that.  It was done to a medium rare, as before.

Now I will go make the rest of it.  This time for pate.  Which will be blended then jarred.  Some of it will go in the refrigerator, some of it will go in the freezer.  Experimenting with... this and that.  More butter will be used.  I will have to fry more bacon, probably for each batch, and there will be less onion per batch.  All good.  Richer.  As well, I will melt a bit of butter to cover the contents within the jars.  A... trick... to help with preservation.

I did reset the cast cookery to a fresh soak, but have done nothing else so far.  Though I did clean up my work station after slicing onions and liver.  Bleh, I have more onions to chop, so will have to clean up more.  So be it.  Back to it, I suppose.  And, while out there, I will bag the trash cans, and sort a few other things out.  Good to have a recycling and trash can already bagged, it makes keeping up much easier.

Yeah, and chores.  I might do those right first thing.  The girls have already been fed.  As a last thing, out there, before I need a break, or after, their litter will get hit.  I refreshed it completely yesterday, so it should be... somewhat reasonable.  Always something, and more, and a bit more.  I am just glad to be able to be mucking with it all.  I like to work, even if and when it hurts.  I just have to be abled to work in order to work.  Later.
