I pickled some eggs in the autumn for my OH as he loves them, some friends where around at Christmas time and they were all raving about them saying what a difference that the were made with free range eggs. Got lots of friends asking me to make some for them. The Kilner type jars are really cheap at the moment in Ikea.

I don't actually like a LOT of it - a little goes a long way.  I think I vaguely remember making a pate that was low in fat and calories but I can't remember when or where - part of the Senior Moment syndrome

Hello you two I can not think of any thing much more revolting than low fat pate is there something?Can youse remember that wonderful H-P biscuit "Breakfast Biscuit" Like toast but more so no burnt edges lol.A good dollop of pate and another and another then you didn't want any dinner lol.I got it made I used 2 sorts from one meat mix which was Fezi breasts a partridge and rabbit with a stockie.Half the mix and put through the 6m/m mincer plate In the pate tin coat with butter 1/2" meat a mean layer of sliced mushrooms s&p and a drop of brandy he he continue more meat more fungi etc until the tin is full cover with foil.
The other half put into the Braun Blitzer Goblet add 4 Tbl/spn brandy and 2 oz shelled walnuts S&P and melt 2 oz of butter and add to the goblet.Blitz until a very smooth paste Fill into silicon cup cake cases and put both pates in a bain-marie cook 1/2 hr on Gas 3 Take out and allow to cool cover all with a little melted butter and leave a couple of days before tasting (WOT NO FAT uh!) Try it and see  :farmer:

When you heat alcohol brandy whiskey etc it disperses and leaves a most wonderful taste so Brandy I use about 5 litres a year in cookingpreferably fire water not five star drinking ;D :farmer:
