APPLE DUSTED HUDSON VALLEY FOIE GRAS
by Chef William Lopata, Fairfield County Hunt Club, Westport, CT
serves 8
Preparation
- Grind 2 cups EAT YOUR HEART OUT APPLE CINNAMON WEDGES into a dust, use either food processor, blender or under a heavy saute' pan. Sift out any large chunks and mix with 1 cup AP flour, set aside.
- Rough chop 1 cup of EAT YOUR HEART OUT APPLE CINNAMON WEDGES, set aside.
- Reduce 1 cup aged balsamic vinegar to ¼ cup or until thick like syrup; if you reduce the vinegar too much it will lose it's sweetness and become bitter. Hold in warm area.
- Clean one lobe of foie gras, use A grade, of sinew and tendons from Hudson Valley foie gras. Portion foie gras into 8 thick slices, keep chilled.
- Wash baby spring greens, if needed.
Execution of dish
- Heat heavy saute' pan with medium heat.
- Season foie gras with salt and pepper, dredge in EAT YOUR HEART OUT APPLE CINNAMON dust.
- Fry gently on each side until well browned, about 2 minutes; if pan is not hot enough it will take foie gras too long to sear. The foie gras will melt away, due to high fat content.
- Drain onto paper towel and hold in warm area.
- To make plate
- Arrange some baby spring greens in center on the plate.
- Place toast points around greens.
- Top greens with sauteed foie gras.
- Drizzle with a little bit of the reduced balsamic vinegar.

EAT YOUR HEART OUT'S crunchy Apple Cinnamon and Peach mango wedges combine 21st century freeze-drying technology and gourmet taste to create a healthy snack alternative. The old adage "An apple a day keeps the doctor away" may be more than just an old wives' tale. Apples contain strong antioxidant compounds called flavonoids that have been linked to fighting certain types of cancer. Freeze-dried peaches and apples are a good source of Vitamin C and contain many of the phytochemicals that scientsts believe help to neutralize free radicals. Promote the "Five-a-Day Habit" of consuming 5 servings of fruits and vegetables each day - and do it the EAT YOUR HEART OUT! way! These snacks are great for the kids. They can also be used in the above recipe to add a unique touch to entertaining. When you create your own dishes using EAT YOUR HEART OUT! products, please write to me. I'd love to hear from you!
