To make toasts with duck mousse and glazed cranberries, preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). In a small saucepan, bring the cranberries, shallot, water (2 tbsp (30 mL)) and sugar to a boil over medium heat. Cook 3 min. or until cranberries are well glazed. Set aside. Place baguette slices on a baking sheet and toast for 4 to 6 min., turning halfway through. Garnish slices with duck liver mousse and glazed cranberries
Step 2
In a saucepan over medium-high heat, combine oil and butter. Add onions and leeks and cook until caramelized, about 10 to 15 min. Add beer, broth, potatoes, 1/8 tsp (0.5 mL) salt and pepper and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer 20 min. or until potatoes are tender.
Step 3
Transfer broth mixture to a blender and purée until soup is smooth. Adjust seasoning, if desired. Divide among 8 bowls and garnish each with crème fraîche and one toast .
