She must have had problems posting the recipe, but it came up under the search feature posted under "no Title" after several attempts to post it with the name. Hope this helps you out.

Hi Gabrielle~~~Found this recipe in a 1951 cookbook. It states you can (readily) substitute chicken livers for the goose's liver. Also, since you are using canned goose's liver, check the label to make sure it is fully cooked, if so, skip the first step in the recipe.
