I like to put the liver pates into several small ramekins, custard cups, etc. That way I think they stay fresher - better than having a partially eaten dish going in and out of the fridge.

I love terrines and paté's because they can be made ahead, and in fact improve in flavour if left for a day or so! Nothing is easier for the hassled hostess than stuff which can be made before!

(Save me, please, from the "I don't eat liver" brigade ... )

I agree with Duonyte that it's a good idea to put it out in ramekins. It also needs delicious ciabatta and other fresh breads or crispbreads.

This is my favourite. Yesterday our (male) neighbour came over with a small bowl of this paté (from my cookbook) and a huge ciabatta!

The pistachio nuts are not essential, but they do add a lovely taste and crunch.

Zurie, that looks wonderful - added to a cookbook. I think spirits and liver make such lovely pates.
