    Your recipe looks great, but the process of sealing it with butter could cause serious problems -- botulism. When you seal off the air it creates an anaerobic condition -- without air. This can lead to spores forming especially in low-acid foods, such as this. And further, Listeria thrives in refrigerated processed foods such as pate. And this is a nasty bacteria that can cause stillbirth or a deformed fetus in pregnant women and even death, just like botulism. Thus the refrigerated life should be less than seven days. There are several other pate recipes posted and note they are refrigerated and consumed soon after they are made. Please take this comment as it was intended. Your recipe looks great, but play it safe.
