First of all, there’s no harmed goose on this recipe, even t’s  actually still dead but luckily not suffering from massive gavaging. No cruelty forced feeding during the process of the humanely foie gras, well this is not literary the real foie gras, but taste better than chicken liver. Foie gras its a fattened goose liver by gavaging and force feeding for about 8 times calories  than what goose needed daily. The fat is stored in the liver and that’s make the liver getting bigger and bigger to 1 kg, compares to the healthy goose liver that  weighted about 100-150 grams.

Recipe Pan Fried Foie Grass Goose Liver with Balsamic Vinegar Glazed and Wine Poached Pears

Ethical foie gras or naturally and humanely foie gras become a trend right now. To make a natural fattened goose liver, i feed the goose with stewed corn and rice mixture. The others secret ingredient is vegetable oil and finely chopped lard, but i choose vegetable oil. This natural feeding goose need about 6- 12 weeks fattenned process. Since i  can’t wait for that long so i just keep the goose 4 weeks due to a complain from my neighbor for its  noisy and loud quake sounds. The  first sight of fattened goose liver is the amount of fat that covering the gizzard when i make my incision in the belly.After the good visual inspection, i extracted the liver and the innard carefully. Gosh, the liver is weighted 240 gr, a good size of humanly foie gras, even the  size is far away from the real foie gras from forced feeding. The other objective is the pale red colored liver is the sigh of fattenned goose liver. This is a natural instinc of water bird to save as many fat as possible before miggrating.

Good sign of fatty goose liver: tons of belly fat!

Poor goose, but once had a happy lifes without forced gavage feeding

When i first pan fried the small left lobus of goose liver, i find it had too gamey aromas for my licking.  My first though is glazing the goose liver with good aged balsamic vinegar to get rid the gamey flavor and aromas. To make the balsamic vinegar even better penetrates, i make a cross wise scored in the surface.  Mine is a lil bit overcooked but the taste is still okey, lucky to served it with wine poached pear. The simple pickled green peppercorn mayonaise  is great accompanion for the pan fried liver too.
