Chicken Liver Mousse With Burnt Honey Gelée - PCOS-Friendly Recipe

If using curing salt, combine with 2 tsp. kosher salt in a small bowl. Sprinkle livers with salt mixture and chill, uncovered, 1 1/2 –2 hours. Rinse and pat dry with paper towels.

Heat oil in a large saucepan over high. Arrange livers in a single layer in saucepan and cook until browned on both sides but still rare in the center, about 45 seconds per side. Transfer to a paper towel–lined plate.

Reduce heat to medium-low and cook shallots and garlic in same saucepan, stirring often, until shallots are translucent, about 3 minutes. Add bay leaves, thyme, white pepper, cinnamon, cloves, and vinegar and simmer, stirring, until liquid is almost completely evaporated, about 1 minute. Add wine and simmer, swirling pan often, until liquid is almost completely evaporated, about 2 minutes. Repeat with brandy, then add cream and bring to a simmer. Cook until reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Pluck out bay leaves; discard. Let mixture cool slightly.

Blend cream mixture and livers in a blender until smooth, about 2 minutes. With motor running, add butter a piece at a time, blending until smooth before adding more. Strain mousse into a large measuring glass; season with kosher salt. Carefully pour into jars, dividing evenly, and cover with plastic wrap, pressing directly onto surface. Chill until set, at least 4 hours.
