- 1 cup red seedless grapes (about 5 ounces)
- 1/2 cup white vinegar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon coriander seeds
- 2 teaspoons hot sauce, such as Tabasco
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 baguette, cut into 32 slices (1/4-inch thick)
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 12 ounces store-bought Pâté de Campagne (country pâté)
- About 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- Freshly ground black pepper (for sprinkling)
- Put grapes into a small heatproof bowl. Bring vinegar, sugar, coriander, hot sauce, and salt to a boil in a small saucepan. Pour over grapes and let sit for 1 hour. Cut grapes into quarters and reserve pickling liquid separately.
- Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350°F. Brush baguette slices with oil and arrange on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until lightly browned and crisp, about 18 minutes.
- Cut pate into sixteen 1/4″ slices, and then cut each slice into 2 triangles.
- Spread each slice of baguette with 1/2 tsp. mustard, top with a piece of pâté, and sprinkle with pepper. Garnish with quartered grapes and a drizzle of pickling liquid and serve.
- Pickled grapes can be made up to 2 days ahead. Refrigerate in an airtight container.
