mks_dropcap_rounded\" style=\"font-size: 52px; color: #ffffff; background-color: #1e73be;\">I<\/span>t&#8217;s snowing and Christmas is just around the corner. The days are short, the nights very long, I often can&#8217;t drop off to sleep and then I think about what dishes I&#8217;m going to cook for this festive season.<br>Recently my father-in-law called me, unexpectedly and in a good mood, he appreciates my cooking skills and is also a good eater. He had a goose for Christmas and didn&#8217;t know how to prepare it, so he asked me if I had any ideas. Since I know how such a fowl sizzles and sizzles best in the oven, I replied amicably: &#8220;We&#8217;ll do it at our place, on Christmas Day, dear friend.&#8221;<br>Already an invisible smile crossed his face, the corners of his mouth lifted,his voice became even gentler and expectant. Now I look forward to the kitchen smelling of mugwort, goose fat and braised red cabbage at Christmas. The fridge will be as full as Ali Baba&#8217;s cave and we will have a lovely feast together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now it&#8217;s time for a drink, something wintery, something golden, what fits better than an Ice Cider, a Br\u00e4nnland Cider! This excellent cider comes from Sweden, Andreas Sundgren from Br\u00e4nnland sent me a selection of the fantastic ciders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Br\u00e4nnland ISCIDER is a sweet cider made by fermenting apple juice with at least 30\u00b0 Brix of sugar before fermentation. The apples have to be processed in a naturally frozen condition, a great art, the Br\u00e4nnland Cider is clearly one of the best!<br>The taste is incomparable, very inspiring and has a perfect balance of acidity and sweetness, a fantastic drink, you can tell how much work and love went into it.<br>It occurs to me to use this wonderful cider in a dish. If you read my blog, you will know that there are often difficult recipes here, but that&#8217;s the way I cook, and that&#8217;s a good thing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Winter time is for oranges, I like the tartness of the aromatic fruit, let it marry with this cider. There is a wonderful, very fresh chicken liver at the market, I have potatoes and onions at home, as well as nice crunchy and aromatic pears, you can read how I bring all this together in the following recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/grandgourmand.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/mittel.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"100\" height=\"32\" src=\"https:\/\/grandgourmand.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/mittel.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5314\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chicken Liver \u00abBr\u00e4nnland 33\u00b0 Brix\u00bb<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ingredients:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For Br\u00e4nnland 33\u00b0 Brix jelly:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Juice of 2 oranges, at least 100ML<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>150 ML Br\u00e4nnland 33\u00b0Brix ISCIDER<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2 sheets gelatine<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For the sauteed shallots:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>6 shallots<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>100 ML water<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>30 G butter<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>some sea salt<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>100 ML Br\u00e4nnland 33\u00b0 Brix<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For the braised potatoes:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>6 large potatoes, mainly stout<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 tsp olive oil<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>10 G butter<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>150 ML chicken stock<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 thyme sprig<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2 bay leaves<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2 garlic cloves<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For the confied pears:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>3 nice pears with crunch and flavour<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Juice of one orange<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Juice of \u00bd lemon<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2 tbsp sugar<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>a \u00bd tsp lemon zest<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 tbsp butter<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For the Chicken Liver:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>400 G chicken liver (serves 4), all tendons removed<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For the spice blend:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>1 tsp sea salt<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 tsp green pepper<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 teaspoon jungle pepper<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For the sauce:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>150 ML chicken stock<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pan sauce of braised shallots<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2 tbsp whipped cream<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Preparation:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For Br\u00e4nnland 33\u00b0 Brix jelly:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Squeeze the oranges, pour the juice through a sieve into a small saucepan.
