Essential Guide to Pâté
PÂTÉ MADE FROM PLANTS IS DELICIOUS, HERE’S EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW
Essential Guide
There isn’t much else that is more closely linked to animal products than pâté is — it is a word that oozes with connotations of meat, and for many meat eaters, eating pâté becomes almost a part of their identity.
Of course, there are many ethical, environmental and health-related reasons for everyone to steer clear of animal-based pâté products — and when you can make a fantastic plant based alternative; there isn’t even a need to eat animal pâtés to get your pâté fix.
WHAT’S THE HISTORY?
Pâté is known to have been used as far back as Ancient Greece, where market traders would sell it along with other meat items, in efforts to use the entire animal and maximise their profits, and has since been a favourite in charcuteries ever since.
