Butter a large rectangular terrine mold. Line the mold with a large piece of  
plastic wrap. Divide the lobes in half. Season the lobes with salt and  
pepper. Place the divided lobes in a glass dish and pour the port wine over  
the lobes. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator.  
Marinate the lobes overnight. Remove the lobes from the refrigerator and  
drain. Reserve the liquid. Slice the lobes into 1/2−inch slices. In two  
large, hot saute pans, sear the foie gras for 1 minute on each side. Remove  
the foie gras from the pan. Line the mold with one layer of the seared foie  
gras. Press the layer down firmly. Repeat the process until all of the foie  
gras is used. Wrap the terrine tightly with plastic wrap. Place two kosher  
salt boxes upright on top of the terrine to weight the mold down. This will  
allow any excess air in the mold to escape. Place the mold in the  
refrigerator and refrigerate overnight. Place the reserved port wine in a  
saucepan and bring the liquid to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and  
cook until the liquid reduces by 3/4 and has a thick, syrup−like  
consistency, about 25 to 30 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and cool  
the liquid completely. Remove the terrine from the refrigerator and slice  
into 1/2−inch slices. Serve the terrine with toast points, cornichons,  
brunoise red onions and port wine syrup. This recipe yields 14 to 16  
servings.
