Pâté en Croûte

Discover the secrets of perfect dough and the most exquisite fillings to impress your guests on any occasion.

A delicious, sophisticated option to share at a dinner with friends, or on a special occasion

Pâté en croûte is a traditional dish from French cuisine, a symbol of delicacy, of special moments, and of good gastronomy. It consists of a filling made with minced meat and spices (for example, pork, duck, poultry, beef…) that is placed in a mold and covered with puff pastry or shortcrust pastry, before being baked.

The end result is a meatloaf with a crispy, golden crust that can be served as an appetizer, main course, or as part of a cold meal. A slice of art.

Upon completion of this online course you will be able to:

  • Prepare the perfect dough for pâté en croûte, golden, tasty and very appetizing.
  • Prepare in advance different garnishes and finishes that will give personality to your pâté en croûte.
  • Design your own combinations with classic French flavors, or even your own versions.

A very good course

Before this course, I made Pate several times, but result wasn't good. So, the main task for me was to see technology. I was surprised very much, when saw dough technique. After tartlets, this technique was diametrically opposite, but this was the key to success. Pate en croute is an endless way for creativity and I'm grateful for this opportunity to study basic principles. Thank you very much!
