Anyone know how long liver pate (Tracas) will keep?

I'm going on a week now, no problem. I wonder if it would freeze okay? My guess is yes.

Only about 3 hours in our house! : ) Although I do think it will freeze beautifully.

In general, pates don't freeze well. They lose their velvety texture and can get damp and chewy.

It's better to freeze them raw--maybe split your recipe into two smaller dishes, bake one and freeze one to bake later.

Thanks- I'll make it a few days ahead.

This one isn't baked. It's like liver....with a butter emulsion. smileys/smile.gif

The first go around, this lasted less than a day. Then I made the mistake of showing

my roommate the recipe. She's like, "THAT's a ton of butter!" I did the math and if you eat 1/4 of the entire recipe...it has less calories than a double cheeseburger at McDonald's, but now she's got some sort of mental block. It's just me eating it now. smileys/smile.gif

Maybe that would hold up then. You should freeze a portion and see.
