Duck pate, also known as dink pate, is a popular dish made from finely ground duck meat mixed with fat and seasonings. It is traditionally served as a spread on bread or crackers and is often enjoyed as an appetizer or snack. Duck pate has a rich and creamy texture, with a savory and slightly gamey flavor that is enhanced by the addition of herbs, spices, and sometimes alcohol such as port or cognac.
