Smoked Salmon Terrine With Spinach Recipes

SMOKED SALMON TERRINE

Steps:

• Grease a loaf tin, a 900g/2lb one is ideal but you can use one slightly smaller or bigger. Line with cling film, then cover just the base with one layer of smoked salmon slices, trimmed to fit neatly.
• Whizz the cream cheese, cream, lemon zest and juice together in a food processor to combine. Scrape out and stir in the dill and chives with some seasoning. Spread an 8th of the cream cheese mixture over as evenly as you can. Top with a layer of salmon slices. Repeat with the cream cheese and salmon - you should be able to do 7 layers of cream cheese (By starting with just an 8th of the mixture, it means as the tin widens you'll have enough to put a bit more as you go further up creating even layers.) Finish with a last layer of salmon (and treat yourself to a smoked salmon sarnie with any trimmings!) Cover with cling film, pressing down gently, then chill overnight.
• To serve, turn onto a platter and gently peel off the cling film. Scatter with a few dill fronds and serve with lemon wedges and toast.

SMOKED SALMON TERRINE WITH SPINACH

Steps:

• Wash the spinach in three changes of cold water and drain it. Put it in three quarts of boiling salted water (not in an aluminum pot), and cook vigorously over high heat for four minutes. Plunge the spinach in ice water to cool it. Drain. Press the excess water out of the spinach by forming it into a ball in your hands and squeezing it.
• Put the spinach, butter, Worcestershire sauce and Tabasco in a food processor. Process until you have a smooth paste.
• Butter the bottom and sides of a one-and-a-half-quart terrine mold. Then line the mold with parchment paper.
• Fill mold with layers: thin sliced salmon alternating with one-fourth-inch spinach layers. The bottom and top layers should be salmon.
• Refrigerate for at least three hours before serving. To remove the terrine from its mold, invert it over a serving plate. If necessary, slip a knife between the parchment paper and the mold, or lower the mold into hot water for a few minutes before inverting it. Cut the terrine in one-fourth-inch slices with a knife that is dipped in hot water before each cut.

INDIVIDUAL TERRINES OF SMOKED SALMON AND SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Combine scallops and wine in large skillet. Cover and simmer over medium heat until scallops are just opaque in center, about 5 minutes. Drain. Chill scallops until cold, about 2 hours. Cut scallops into 1/2-inch pieces.
• Line twelve 3/4-cup soufflé dishes with plastic wrap, extending over sides by 3 inches. Whisk 1 cup fresh chives, crème fraîche, 1/2 cup tarragon, and 3 tablespoons mustard in large bowl to blend. Gently stir in scallops and cucumber. Season with salt and pepper. Cut 12 rounds from salmon slices to fit bottom of soufflé dishes; place 1 round in each dish. Top each with 1/4 cup scallop mixture. Top each with another layer of salmon, trimming to fit. Divide remaining scallop mixture among dishes (about 1/4 cup for each). Top each with a third layer of salmon, trimming to fit. Fold plastic wrap overhang over terrines to enclose completely. Chill at least 4 hours. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Keep chilled.)
• Whisk oil, vinegar and 1/3 cup chives, 3 tablespoons tarragon, and 2 tablespoons mustard in medium bowl to blend. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Unfold plastic wrap atop each terrine. Invert 1 terrine onto each of 12 plates. Peel off plastic wrap from each terrine. Surround each terrine with watercress sprigs and endive leaves. Drizzle greens and terrines with vinaigrette and serve.

SALMON AND SPINACH TERRINE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F
• Blanch the spinach in boiling salted water until the leaves are limp, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain and plunge into cold water; drain again and squeeze spinach dry.
• Transfer the spinach to a blender or food processor and add the cod, bread crumbs, eggs, and cream or half-and half and process until smooth.
• Line an 8 by 3-3/4 by 2-1/2 inch glass loaf pan with aluminum foil and brush lightly with cooking oil.
• Spoon half the spinach mixture into the pan. Cut the salmon into 1/2 inch thick crosswise slices.
• 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.
• To serve, loosen the sides of the terrine with a warm knife and unmold onto a serving plate.
• Cut into 8 slices and serve over a bed of mixed greens garnished with cherry tomatoes.
