salmon terrine with tarragon sauce dish

[josaphine32]

Hi,
We are all going to mothers on christmas day
(14 people) I got sick of the same prawn cocktail so i want try something different, I have not got a Terrine dish .when i make this could i roll it in foil into a large sausageroll shape and cook it that way. or has anyone got any great ideas

Hi josaphine,
I think cooked in a terrine in foil would hold the salmon together better for transfering to a serving dish? Sounds very nice! xxx

Have you got a loaf tin for making bread ?
Agree with Sachs, it might not hold together very well with being put into someting firm, so if you line a loaf tin with foil, that would do.
Sounds delicious.

Just had another thought...what about those foil trays you can get ...exactly like the ones that takeaways come in ?
Asda sells them, very cheap and no washing up.

I think josaphine wants to take the salmon to the table served whole ladyalex xxx

[ladyalex]

Sorry, thought it was a terrine of salmon.

[Sachs]

Actually ladyalex, I may have it wrong! What are the long metal containers for poaching salmon called? I realise now a terrine is oblong and layered!! Apologies! xxx

[ladyalex]

No worries, Sachs :-))

[Sachs]

Foil trays, great idea! xxx

i've read it as a terrine as well, one of those foil ones should do the job, line with well with cling first so you can tip it out easily
