Heat 75 gr. of butter, add the herbs and the liver, sauté, cover with the rest of the Port and cook over low heat for 20 minutes. Spice with salt and pepper. Remove the herbs and pass through the food mill. Weigh the amount of compound, add the same amount of butter and work until you get a cream, add the cognac and the sliced trout.
