Salmon And Cucumber Terrine Recipes

SALMON TERRINE

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a large saucepan and add salt. Add salmon fillet, reduce to a simmer, and cook until just cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer salmon to a plate using a slotted spoon and let cool 10 minutes. Flake salmon into a large bowl, discarding skin, and toss with smoked salmon, green onion, parsley, and tarragon.
• Whisk together butter, mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, and pepper in a bowl until smooth. Add mayonnaise mixture to salmon mixture and gently stir until well combined.
• Cover and chill 3 hours. Serve with toasted baguette slices or crackers.

Steps:

• Line a long baking tin with cling film and layer the slices of salmon the same way until they lap over the sides. Mix the remaining salmon with the cream cheese.
• Use a vegetable peeler to get long thin strips of cucumber, layer them on the base of the tin, top with the salmon and cream cheese mix and repeat until mixture is used.
• Cover the entire dish with the salmon slices overlapping the tin, tightly cover with cling film and refrigerate. Place a tin or something heavy on top of the pan to help it mould together.
• Refrigerate overnight, remove from fridge just before needed, unwrap and slice, serve with salad or brown bread.

SALMON, SCALLOP, AND PEA TERRINE

Steps:

• In a food processor purée the scallops and the peas until the mixture is almost smooth, add the egg white, the cream, the salt, and the tarragon, and purée the mixture until it is smooth. Transfer the mixture to a bowl, fold in the salmon, and transfer the mixture to a buttered 1-quart rectangular terrine, smoothing the top and rapping the terrine on a hard surface to expel any air bubbles.
• Cover the terrine with buttered wax paper and the lid or a double thickness of foil, put it in a baking pan, and add enough hot water to the pan to come halfway up the sides of the terrine. Bake the terrine in a preheated 375°F. oven for 45 minutes. Remove the terrine from the baking pan and remove the lid and the wax paper. Let the terrine stand for 10 minutes, carefully pour off the excess liquid, and invert the terrine onto a platter. The terrine may be made 1 day in advance and kept covered and chilled. Let the terrine return to room temperature before serving. Cut the terrine into 1/2-inch slices and serve it warm with the chive butter sauce or at room temperature with the tsatsiki.
• To make chive butter sauce:
• In a small heavy saucepan combine the shallot, the vermouth, and the vinegar, bring the liquid to a boil, and simmer it until the liquid is reduced to about 1 tablespoon. Reduce the heat to moderately low and whisk in the butter, 1 piece at a time, lifting the pan from the heat occasionally to cool the mixture and adding each new piece before the previous one has melted completely. (The sauce must not get hot enough to liquefy. It should be the consistency of hollandaise.) Stir in the chives and salt to taste. Makes about 1/2 cup.

CUCUMBER TERRINE

Steps:

• Boil the shrimp for 5 minutes, drain and immerse in cold water. Remove their shells, devein and slice them in half lengthwise. Put the salt, celery seed, pink peppercorns and 4 tablespoons of the lime juice in a bowl and add the Kirby cucumbers. Mix well and allow them to macerate for 2 hours. Strain.
• Juice the large cucumbers in a juice extractor, and scald 1/2 cup of the juice over high heat. Meanwhile, add the remaining 2 1/2 tablespoons lime juice and the chives to the cucumber juice that wasn't heated. Stir. Sprinkle the gelatin on top and allow to moisten. Add the heated juice and stir until dissolved, about 2 minutes.
• Spray the bottom and sides of a 9-by-3-by-3-inch terrine with nonstick vegetable coating. Make a line down the center of the terrine with the shrimp. Spread about a fifth of the sliced Kirbys on top of the shrimp. Cover this layer with some of the gelatin. Refrigerate until set, about 30 minutes. Spread another fifth of the cucumbers on top, cover with some more gelatin and refrigerate until set. Repeat with the remaining 3 layers. When set, unmold onto a serving plate and slice.

SALMON WITH CUCUMBER SAUCE

Steps:

• For sauce, in a bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. Refrigerate until serving. Broil salmon 4-6 in. from the heat for 10-15 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Serve with cucumber sauce.

• Lay the slices of salmon on top of the spinach mixture and sprinkle with nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
• Spoon the remaining spinach mixture over the top.
• Cover with another piece of greased foil, place the loaf pan in a baking dish, and add hot water to come two thirds up the sides of the loaf pan.
• Bake for 1-1/4 hours.
• Remove both pans from the oven and let the terrine cool in the water bath for 2 to 3 hours.
• Remove from the water bath and refrigerate for at least 12 hours or up to 24 hours.
