How to make Western style pate

Step 1Process materials

Wash the pork balls thoroughly with salt, then you put the bubbles in a bowl and pour white wine and a little crushed ginger to soak until use. Scrub the bubbles a few more times and then squeeze to drain , because pork bubbles often have a pungent smell, so you should handle them carefully to make the dish delicious.

Clean shaved pork skin, put a pot of water, add a little salt and boil the skin until just cooked . Then you take it out to cool and slice the fat under the pork skin. Finally, you tilt the blade to cut the pork skin into thin pieces about 1 finger long.

You wash the thigh meat thoroughly, dry it and cut it into bite-sized pieces.

Wash the pork belly fat, peel it off and let it cool, then cut it into cubes.

Step 2Preparing western style pate

Put pork thighs, skin, fat in a large bowl and in turn add black pepper, sugar, minced garlic, salt and salt, mix well to marinate, put in the refrigerator for about 2 hours to let the mixture absorb the spices.

Take the meat out of the fridge, put on gloves and scoop the meat mixture into the pork bubbles.

Note: The bubbles are tough and very expandable, so you keep pressing and squeezing the meat until it’s full. Then you take a sewing needle and sew it up and use a toothpick to tattoo many holes into the bubble block for the water to leak out.

Put the bubbles in the steamer for about 3 hours . Remember to open the lid from time to time, use a toothpick to poke holes in the balloons to reduce the water flow and avoid straining the bubbles because they will break.

Tattoo until the water is no longer pink , the meat block will be hard, then the pate is cooked.

Let the pate cool and put it in the refrigerator, when you eat it, use a knife to cut it into small pieces to enjoy.
