Josie made these incredible Choux pastry cheese gougeres. (Chou x pastry is not one of my strengths. )Fabulous with the bubbles.
Serve with 2010 Chirac
Shortcuts
You can buy any pate chicken liver, duck liver etc even vegetarian mushroom pate with the Chirac and you will be well rewarded. You can even top the liver pate with cornichons and the Chirac is rich enough to handle the acidity.
Also duck and pork rillettes are fantastic with the Chirac and can be sourced at Essential Ingredient stores. But you can make your own ahead of time. Theoretically you should be able to store them in their own fat in the fridge but I would keep them in a freezer just to be safe. Rillettes freeze and defrost well.
