I bought some during some sale at Dartagnan several months ago, and stumbled on them today when I had to defrost my freezer.
I saw many familiar names when I searched and foodtalk central popped up!
I just want a snack for maybe six cubes.
I plan to serve hanger steak this evening, so if they work well together that would be good to know, but I don’t expect many fans in this house.

How come I only stumble across freezer burned peas and not fois gras when I go through my freezer!?

I NEVER have enough fresh peas to freeze!
I have fennel too, so I think I’m making something like this. Probably minus the Sauce.

I like it seared though not as rare as served in most restaurants.
A little sweet goes well, but again I’m joy a big fan of the overly sweet and fruity versions that are most visible.
Your peppercorn caramel link looks like it would be tasty!

Is it raw? I think so.
Saregama is right, sear very briefly. Watch out for spitting fat, though.
In Spain I had it seared and served on toasts. And on the same plate as my Iberico pork steak (also in Spain).
In Hungary I had it with beef.
If it’s not raw then you simply eat it spread on toast. At least how I do it.

Thanks all!
While I did make the fennel, that is what I ended up doing with the fois gras cubes, and ate it with some chili jelly.

Great with triscuits! I also had some on steak.

If you sear it long enough all you’ll have left is duck liver-flavored fat in the pan

If you add the salt and spices of your choice at step 1 plus a dollop of brandy, port or sweet wine, you’d end up with a decent terrine at the end of step 2.
