What each ingredient does
- Goose livers
- Provide the rich, soft main texture and flavor of the garnish.
- Bacon
- Adds fat and savory smoky flavor that enriches the livers as they cook.
The step that matters
Let them stew until cooked through. Liver turns grainy and dry if overcooked, yet undercooked liver is unsafe to eat. Gentle stewing in liquid cooks it evenly and keeps it moist, so check that it is firm throughout without pushing it too far.
