Are you saying this recipe is better than the one in the Everyday cookbook Karonjulie? Suffice to say, that wouldn't be surprising. So, pate can be frozen - wondered about that as 1 batch would be too much for the 2 of us.

This looks very nice, indeed!
Have you made this one yourself?

Pate can be frozen, but when it is thawed I usually put it back in the blender with a little cream and blend it for a short time.
It seems to have a slightly grainy texture when thawed, so blending corrects that - but keeps well.

Thanks for the pate recipe. ;D ;D
I love CLP and it is a regular in the TMX - so easy to cook and blend in one machine.
Do you use dried bay leaves ? Do they break up well once cooked?
