Steps:
- Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a large high-sided skillet over medium-high heat. Season livers with salt and pepper; add to skillet and cook, turning once, until just cooked through (liver may be slightly pink inside), about 4 minutes per side. Remove livers from skillet and set aside.
- Reduce heat to medium and add another tablespoon butter to skillet. Add shallots and season with salt and pepper; cook, stirring, until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add pears, thyme, cloves, cinnamon sticks, brown sugar, and 1/4 cup water. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally and adding water as necessary to prevent burning, until pears are soft and easily pierced with the tip of a sharp knife, about 15 minutes.
- Remove skillet from heat; uncover and add brandy, scraping up browned bits at bottom of skillet to deglaze. Remove thyme and cinnamon sticks from skillet and discard.
- Cut remaining 5 tablespoons butter into small cubes. Transfer remaining contents of skillet to the bowl of a food processor along with chicken livers, cream, vinegar, nutmeg, and cut butter. Process until mixture is very smooth; season with salt and pepper.
- Strain chicken liver mousse through a fine mesh sieve, using a spatula to push mousse through sieve. Transfer to a jars and top each with a sprig of fresh thyme. Add enough clarified butter to top of chicken liver mousse to form a thin film, about 1/16 of an inch; cover and transfer to refrigerator to chill. Keep chilled until ready to serve, up to 1 week. Serve with sea salt, jam, and toasts.

Steps:
- Clean the chicken livers of any bile residue, cut out the nerves, and season them with salt and pepper and the quatre epices.
- Put the grapeseed oil into a large hot skillet and add the livers, sage, shallots, garlic and thyme. Toss the mixture well and cook over moderately high heat until the livers are medium rare. Add the Cognac, flambe the mixture, tossing it well, and transfer it to a sieve set over a bowl and refrigerate the mixture for 1 hour.
- Add the port and marsala wines to the skillet and deglaze the pan, stirring well. Reduce the liquid by three-fourths and transfer to a small bowl.
- When the livers are cold, transfer them to a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Add the reduced wine and softened butter and pulse to combine. Taste for seasonings.
- Force the mixture through a fine mesh sieve, transfer it to a small terrine lined with plastic wrap and refrigerate, covered with plastic wrap. The mousse is ready to serve when it is fully chilled.
- Serve the mousse with cornichons and toasted sliced French bread. The mousse makes a perfect hor d'oeuvre for cocktails.
- In a spice or coffee grinder, grind the spices to a powder and store it in a small sealed container.

CHICKEN LIVER MOUSSE WITH BURNT HONEY GELéE
This has become a Staplehouse all-star. We simplified it a bit, setting it in jars rather than the buttery pastry crust it's served in at the restaurant. Don't worry: We didn't mess with the shamelessly high ratio of butter and cream to liver.
Yield Makes about 2 cups

Steps:
- 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.
- Combine 2 Tbsp. vinegar and an ice cube in a small bowl; sprinkle gelatin over top.
- Heat honey in a small saucepan over medium-high, swirling often, until nearly black, bubbling, and just starting to smoke, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add remaining 2 Tbsp. vinegar, whisking until smooth. Add gelatin mixture and whisk until dissolved. Strain gelée into a small measuring glass and let cool.
- Carefully pour gelée over chilled chicken liver mousse, dividing evenly. Chill until gelée is set, at least 4 hours.
- Let mousse sit at room temperature 30 minutes before serving with toast.
- Mousse can be made 3 days ahead. Keep chilled. Mousse can be topped with gelée 2 days ahead. Keep chilled.

Steps:
- Clean and dry the canning jars.
- Trim the sinew and any green patches from the livers. Rinse and dry them on paper towels.
- In a 12-inch skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil until very hot. Sauté the livers, letting them caramelize on one side before flipping them. (If the pan threatens to smoke or blacken, immediately lower the heat; otherwise the juices will become too bitter to use.) When the livers are well browned but medium-rare inside, about 4 minutes, turn off the heat and transfer them to the bowl of a food processor. Season with 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1?8 teaspoon pepper.
- Add another tablespoon of oil to the pan and sweat the onions, shallots, garlic, thyme and star anise over low heat, covered, until soft, about 10 minutes. Raise the heat and deglaze the pan with the vinegar and Cognac or rum until evaporated. Discard the star anise and transfer the onion mixture to the food processor.
- While the onions are still warm, purée with the livers and butter until smooth. Taste, adding more salt, pepper or vinegar as needed.
- Transfer to the jars. Wipe the inside lip of the jars clean with a damp cloth. Slowly pour enough olive oil over the mousse to just cover. Screw on the lids. Let cool before moving the jars to the refrigerator, where they can keep for a few days. Serve chilled with toasted, sliced bread and sweet-and-sour cherries.

- Preheat the oven to 275°. In a food processor, combine the livers, egg yolks, brandy, Calvados, salt, pepper, allspice and nutmeg and puree until smooth. With the machine on, blend in the softened butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, until all the butter is incorporated and the puree is creamy; if it looks curdled, wrap a hot kitchen towel around the processor bowl and puree until light and creamy.
- Pass the puree through a fine strainer set over a large bowl and stir in the heavy cream until blended. Pour the puree into a 1 1/2-quart enameled cast-iron terrine and set the terrine in a roasting pan. Pour enough boiling water into the roasting pan to reach halfway up the side of the terrine and bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes, or until the mousse is lightly browned on top and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove the terrine from the water bath and let cool, then cover with plastic wrap and aluminum foil and refrigerate overnight.
- To unmold, dip the bottom of the terrine in a pan of hot water for 10 seconds, and run a paring knife around the edge of the mousse. Invert the mousse onto a long platter or rectangular plate. Cut it into 1/2-inch slices and transfer to plates. Serve with baguette toasts and the Sweet-and-Sour Red-Onion Relish.
