Ingredients

4 tablespoon Butter
4 Scallions Chopped
1 cup Unbleached all-purpose flour
1 pn Ground ginger
1 pn Mace
1 pn Allspice
1 pn Nutmeg
1 pn Cloves

Directions

1
Melt the butter in a large heavy skillet over medium heat and gently sautÃÂ© the chopped scallions for 5 minutes until softened.
2
In a plastic bag, combine the flour, ground ginger, mace, allspice, nutmeg, cloves, salt, and pepper.
3
Add the halved chicken livers to the bag and shake vigorously to coat them evenly with the spice mixture.
4
Empty the livers into a strainer set over a bowl and shake the strainer to remove any excess flour.
5
Return the skillet with the scallions to the stove, raise the heat, and when hot, add the coated livers.
6
Cook the livers, turning occasionally, for about 5 minutes or until they are browned and slightly stiffened.
7
Remove the livers from the skillet with a spoon and keep them warm.
8
Add the blueberry vinegar to the skillet and deglaze over high heat, scraping up any browned bits and reducing the vinegar to a few syrupy spoonfuls.
9
Whisk in the crÃÂ¨me fraÃÂ®che and boil the sauce for 1 minute.
10
If using fresh blueberries, add them to the sauce and simmer gently for 2 to 3 minutes, just long enough to heat them through without overcooking.
11
Arrange the livers on serving dishes and spoon the blueberry sauce over them.
12
Serve immediately.

Note

This recipe serves 4 as an appetizer or 2 as a main course.

If you do not have fresh blueberries, you can omit them, but they add a nice touch of sweetness and color. Frozen blueberries can be used, but thaw and drain them first to avoid watering down the sauce.

Fruit vinegars like blueberry vinegar can also be used in salad dressings with nut or olive oils, or to enhance fruit salads.
