Summary: Who knew that a mixture of onion, mushrooms, green lentils, nuts, beetroot, fresh herbs and lemon juice could produce such an incredibly delicious and realistic alternative to one of the most controversial yet popular French delicacies, Foie Gras ?
Enter Faux Gras. This Mushroom and Lentil pâté tastes very much like real Foie Gras, but is brimming with plant-based nutrition, and more importantly, comes without the unkind treatment to ducks and geese.
But this Faux Gras is not just a vegan alternative to Foie Gras, it is also an exceptionally tasty vegan spread in its own right : it is hands down the best pâté, vegan or otherwise, that I have ever tasted.
Don't be put off by the fairly long list of ingredients, the recipe is actually really easy and straightforward.

Summary: The simplest way to prepare salsify is to roast them, drizzled with some good quality olive oil, a whole garlic head, a few bay leaves and a small bunch of fresh thyme. Leave their very much edible skins on for extra nutrition, but if you do peel them, try to do as and soak them in cold water with a little vinegar to stop the delicate cream flesh from browning. Pair them with carrots or your favourite root vegetables for a lovely side dish.
