MEDICINAL PATE:

• Equal parts organs (heart, liver, sweetbreads) and then whatever this looks like in volume, we need that same amount of jowl so the jowl is 50% of the whole volume of organs
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees and you will use the lowest rack position for this
• Slice jowl and fill cast iron pan big enough to add the organs once you have cooked the fat out of the jowl
• Put jowl in the oven and bake for 12 minutes
• Slice all organs or chop into equal size squares (consistent cut = consistent cook)
• Remove jowl, SCRAPE the bottom of the pan with a sharp metal spatula to loosen all the meaty chunks that are stuck on the bottom of the pan (DO A GOOD SCRAPING JOB!)
• Place all the jowl in blender with enough bone broth to cover the blades and flash into a puree
• Add all organs to jowl fat in cast iron pan that was properly scraped and return the pan to the oven for another 12 minutes
• Empty the pan into the blender with the jowl and broth mixture
• Scrape the pan well and use silicon spatula to catch all the fat and rendering crunchies from the pan and fill blender
• ADD real salt to taste
• Puree into a paste then jar
