Preparation

  1. Cut a slice of the venison pâté and halve it just off-center.

  1. Wash and cut the vegetables into desired shapes.
  2. Blanch hard vegetables such as carrot and cauliflower for 2-3 minutes in boiling water. Immediately rinse with cold water.
  3. Softer vegetables such as cucumber or onion do not need to be blanched.
  4. In a pan, bring the natural vinegar, water, granulated sugar, salt, mustard seeds, bay leaf, peppercorns, and cloves to a boil. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.
  5. Bring to a boil and stir until the sugar is dissolved.
  6. Let the mixture simmer gently for 3-5 minutes so the flavors blend well.
  7. Add the vegetables to the warm marinade and let them heat for 2 minutes without boiling.
  8. Let everything cool. For immediate use: let the mixture cool in a bowl, cover, and let it infuse in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
  9. For preserving: put the hot vegetables with liquid into sterilized jars. Seal immediately and let cool. Let infuse for at least 1 day, preferably a week.

  1. Infuse the oil (optional, but highly recommended for flavor):
  2. Finely chop or bruise the kaffir lime leaves.
  3. Gently heat the sunflower oil in a small pan to a maximum of 60°C (do not boil) and add the lime leaves. Let infuse for about 10 minutes.
  4. Let the oil cool and strain to remove the lime leaves.
  5. Whisk the egg yolk with mustard and lime juice in a bowl.
  6. Gradually add the lime leaf oil while whisking (with a whisk or mixer), until the mixture starts to thicken.
  7. Slowly add the remaining oil in a thin stream, continuing to whisk, until a thick mayonnaise forms.
  8. Season with salt and, if desired, a little grated lime zest for extra freshness.

  1. Break the pergamena di pane into pieces for a crispy garnish.

  1. Reduce the tomato juice by 1/3 and chill.
  2. Mix the reduced tomato juice with the wild garlic oil to make a homogeneous vinaigrette.
