Chopped liver

Chopped liver (Yiddish: געהאַקטע לעבער, gehakte leber) is a liver pâté popular in Ashkenazi Jewish cuisine. This dish is a common menu item in kosher Jewish delicatessens in Britain, Canada, South Africa, Argentina and the United States. Historically, Ashkenazi Jewish communities used goose livers to make this dish; over time, chicken livers became the most commonly used ingredient.
