PREPARATION
HOW TO COOK THE PATE
1.
In a medium saucepan, combine water, chicken livers, and sliced onion. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and cover.
2.
Simmer for about 20 minutes, or until liver is cooked and tender.
3.
Remove from heat, drain, and discard onions. Also remove and discard any hard portions of the liver.
4.
Place cooked livers in a blender or food processor, and process until smooth.
5.
Add chopped onion, sherry, butter, salt, black pepper, and mace; pulse to blend.
6.
With hands lightly greased, form pate mixture into ~16 balls, and place on a serving platter. Press down on each ball until the ball is flattened a bit. Chill for 1 hour.
HOW TO COOK THE BEET TOPPING

While the pate is chilling, prepare the beet topping.
8.
