PATES

meat preparations, both domestic and imported from France, Germany and elsewhere, put up in earthenware jars, tins and boxes. They are so called because they were originally sold in pastry or "pate" form. The most famous of all is the "Pate de Foie Gras" or goose liver pate, described under FOIE GRAS. Other noted examples are the chicken and ham pates from Rouen, France; those of truffled game and poultry from Perigueux, Angouleme and Nerac; woodcock, from Montreuil; duck from Amiens; game from Pithiviers, Chartres and Nogent-le-Rotrou, and fish from Abbeville. Pates should always be thoroughly chilled before serving.
