  3. Add the chicken stock and cook for approx. 40 minutes until reduced by half.
  4. Remove the bay leaf and blend until smooth. Strain through a fine sieve and allow to cool.
  5. Lightly whip the cold QimiQ Classic and QimiQ Whip together until completely smooth, ensuring that the entire mixture is incorporated (especially from bottom and sides of bowl). Fold in the liver mixture.
