Mushroom Pate

This is a very simple, mild mushroom pate. You can use whatever kind of mushrooms you prefer, or an assortment. Just so long as they are fresh, never canned. It is my attempt to replace chopped liver, a snack treat served in my family for all previous generations, but now out of favor due to health concerns.

Delicious! We enjoyed this on crusty ciabatta rolls with a simple cucumber and tomato salad. In step one, I added 2 cloves of finely minced garlic to the onions; in step three, I added 1/2 teaspoon of thyme and 1/4 cup of chopped walnuts. The pate was moist and wonderfully flavoursome. Thanks, Susiecat too, for another great recipe! And it's super easy and quick to make!

    This is really a nice appetizer. I made as written. Chilled overnight in a mold and turned out onto a plate just before serving with crackers. The slightly caramelized onions give this a nice flavor.
