Pasztet is a unique Polish dish that is traditionally served at special, festive occasions such as Christmas and Easter. It is characterized by its texture and flavor, and unlike other, spreadable pâtés, pasztet is more like a terrine, so it is recommended to serve it in slices.

Pasztet is usually made from cooked liver, beef, pork, or venison, along with spices, herbs, and a bit of vegetables such as carrots or mushrooms. For a more traditional pasztet, veal and pork are the most common meat varieties, which are then covered in pork fat to prevent the pasztet from being too dry.

The combination of ingredients is minced, baked, and ready to consume, preferably on a slice of bread with some sliced tomatoes and finely chopped chives.
