I tasted this first at a catered wedding in Boston over 30 years ago. I asked for and received the recipe from the caterers who said it was from California Cookbook. —Picholine

Many people do not like pate but if you do,this is the tastiest. It’s smooth and creamy with just a hint of curry and toasted walnuts!
