- Strain the mixture through a chinois or sieve and fill into Masson jars or ramekins. Cover with plastic wrap, place on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, depending on the size of the containers.
- Cool in the refrigerator.
The jelly
- In a saucepan, heat the ice cider with the salt.
- Soak the gelatine leaves in a bowl of cold water for a few minutes.
- Squeeze them dry, then stir them into the hot liquid with a spatula.
- Pour the still-warm liquid into a container and set aside in the fridge for 1 hour to allow the jelly to set.
- Using a spoon, turn the jelly into small pieces.
- On each bread crouton, place a small amount of foie gras parfait and a little ice cider jelly. Enjoy.
