Chop up the livers, rub them with salt, wash them under running water and drain well. Bring the Kikkoman soy sauce, sake, sugar and 160 ml water to the boil. Peel the ginger, cut it into small pieces, add to the pan with the liver and cook for approx 10-15 minutes at a medium heat.

Bake the baguette if necessary, cut into slices and spread them with pate. Serve with a rocket leaf topping, a fig wedge and sprinkling of Parmesan.
