Hi Heindrich, so happy to hear that. Yes you can freeze pate. Just be sure to keep the container airtight (maybe put in a food bag and suck out the air) and consume within 3 months (defrost overnight in fridge).

It came out delicious. I cooked a kilogram of pork liver. Can I freeze the cooked paté in the foil container.

I think what is meant here would be ‘finker’

Hi Camilla; I was an exchange student at a Folk Highschool way back in 1976… and I still dream of the leverpostej I had both at the school and with the Family I lived with up in Fjerritslev. I tried to make some from an internet recipe years ago and it was dreadful.. I am very excited to try your recipe! Mange tak!

I’m a Danish born Australian and came with my parents to Australia when I was 4 years old. In 2018 I visited some family in Copenhagen and fell in love with Danish liver paste. Am also vegan now, so as we speak I’m baking the paste after swapping TVP (textured vegetable protein) for the pork and plant based bacon along with ground flaxseed for the egg and soy milk for the milk. Will let you know how it comes out!

Hi Jodi, thank you for your suggestion. I’m afraid my daughter is now a pescatarian (having been a vegetarian too) as she just never did like meat really. Did you also try pickled Asier (pickled cucumber) with leverpostej, that’s lovely too! My daughter did ask to have herring on rye bread the other day having avoided it for the past 18 years and really enjoyed it so at least the Danish genes are making a mark:-)

When I was in Herning, DK many years ago as an exchange student. My host father found it odd that my first try of Leverpostej I put onions on it, but as an American, I had never heard of anything different to go with liver.
After that, I began to eat it the way that my host family did, with thinly sliced cucumbers on it.

In your article you stated that your daughter would not try it. See if she would be willing to after it is cooked, with some fresh raw cucumber on it.

I found with the Cucumber there was no lingering taste from the liver when I had “Smørbrød med Leverpostej.” It was common practice to spread butter on the “femkorn” (the bread they used for the open-faced sandwiches) before spreading the leverpostej on it. That may have also been regional.

I am looking forward to trying your recipe to see if it is how I remembered it from when I was 17. (too many years ago to admit here)

Hi Jan, when I was a kid we grew up with pounds and ounces and then sometime in the 70’s I think the UK went metric. I had no idea that this was US measurements, I thought those were cups. We have digital scales that can measure ounces, grams, mls etc so what sort of scales do you use? When I was growing up I used my mothers caste iron ones with the little weights that went on one side. Is that what Americans still use? I have said the oven temperature on the first line of the recipe.

However, your recipe calling for bacon put a whole new spin on it. Thanks for sharing this recipe and for using both metric and US measurements. Please add the baking temperature to complete the perfection! Can’t wait to try it. Thank you!

Hi Fred, my mum used to serve us pan fried calves liver as a child which was so good but I don’t think it would be good in this pate, I’ve never come across any pate made with calves liver. Could you not find an online supplier to send it to you frozen perhaps? I would google other pate recipes that contain anchovies and use that as a guide. Good luck!

Love it. Made it a couple years ago. Anxious to try it again. Found pork liver in NC, when I lived near Charlotte, but no sources here on Central Florida coast. Hoping calf’s is an acceptable substitute.
As I like anchovies, I wonder how much to put in recipe?
Fred
