I honestly think I could sell these and make a tidy profit. It really is that good.

Oh I remember that. Often took it camping , great with oatcakes for lunch. Can't get it round here, but I like the suma mushroom (and vegetable pate)in tubes, which I can get. Comes a good close second to the granose in taste.

I think it'd be a nice one to include in the Home Made hamper kind of thing too.
Definitely going to give it a go

Sounds lovely! Not sure it has any resemblance to actual pâté de foie gras though.
It’s from an excellent chef though. One of the best dinners I have ever eaten was at Restaurant Gauthier in Soho for my 40th birthday. They do a “herbivore” menu and an “omnivore” menu, although many of the plant based dishes appear on both. I’ll certainly be giving it a try for Christmas. Thanks for sharing.

I love a bit of pate but no bread in my diet.

Do you mean the look? I think you can blend it smoother if thats what you mean - One could probably add a little veg friendly gelatin to enhance the homogenous nature somewhat.

Real foie gras is very pink & super smooth. I guess you could push it through a fine sieve to make it smooth.
I rather like the look of it but I was a bit curious as to why they called it after foie gras. It doesn’t really look like it & I doubt it tastes like it either. Sounds like it would have much deeper flavour to be honest.

Personally I clicked on the thread wondering what alternative use you were finding for Astroturf.
