Alaskan Halibut And Salmon Gefilte Fish Terrine Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Make the terrine: Coat a 5-by-9-inch loaf pan with 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil. Heat remaining olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook onion, stirring, until soft, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Pulse halibut and salmon in a food processor until finely chopped (not smooth).
• Beat eggs with a mixer on medium speed until frothy, about 2 minutes. Beat in onion, fish mixture, cold water, matzo meal, sugar, lemon juice, 2 teaspoons salt, and some pepper until well combined, about 3 minutes. Beat in carrot, parsnip, and dill.
• Transfer mixture to pan. Smooth top using an offset spatula. Cover with parchment-lined foil, and transfer to a large roasting pan. Pour enough boiling water into roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the loaf pan. Bake until terrine is firm in the center, about 45 minutes. Remove pan from water. Let cool for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the aioli: Mash garlic and a pinch of salt using a mortar and pestle or the side of a knife until a paste forms. Transfer to a bowl. Whisk in egg yolk and lemon juice. Gradually whisk in oils.
• Run a knife or an offset spatula around the edge of the pan to loosen terrine. Place a plate on top, then flip. Tap top and sides gently several times to help release terrine. Let cool completely. Soak up any released juices with a paper towel. Refrigerate, covered with plastic wrap, for at least 1 hour.
• Uncover terrine. Slice, and serve with dollops of aioli and horseradish.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Cut the fish into large chunks, and place in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse about 20 times: do not puree, but grind fine. Place in the bowl of an electric mixer.
• Heat oil in a large frying pan, and saute onions until soft and transparent. Let cool.
• To the fish mixture, add the onions, eggs, 2 cups of cold water, matzoh meal, salt, white pepper, sugar and lemon juice. Beat in an electric mixer at medium speed for about 10 minutes. Add the dill, and grate in the carrots; mix well, using a paddle attachment.
• Pour the mixture into a greased 12-cup bundt pan. Smooth the top with a spatula, and cover with foil. Place in a larger pan filled with water that is almost boiling.
• Bake in the oven for 1 hour, or until the center is solid. Cool for 5 minutes, or until mold is cool to the touch. Run a knife around the edges. Place a flat serving plate on top, then flip over, inverting onto the plate. If the mold doesn't come out easily, give the plate a shake. You should feel or hear it give.
• Refrigerate for several hours or overnight. Slice as you would a torte, and serve as an appetizer. Garnish with the parsley and remaining dill, and serve with red horseradish.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F. Grease a 12-cup bundt pan with the margarine.
• Cut the fish into large chunks, and place in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse about 20 times, do not puree, but grind fine. Place in the bowl of an electric mixer.
• Heat the oil in a large frying pan, and sauté the onions over medium-low heat until soft and transparent. Let cool.
• To the fish mixture, add the onions, eggs, 2 cups of cold water, matzoh meal, salt, white pepper, sugar and lemon juice. Beat in the electric mixer at medium speed, using a paddle attachment, for about 10 minutes. Add the dill, and grate in the carrots; mix well.
• Pour the mixture into the greased bundt pan. Smooth the top with a spatula, and cover with foil. Place a large pan filled with water which is almost boiling and comes at least halfway up the sides of the bundt pan.
• Bake in the oven for 1 hour, or until the center is solid. Cool for 5 minutes, or until mold is cool to the touch. Run a knife around the edges. Place a flat serving plate on top, and then flip over, inverting the mold onto the plate. If the mold does not come out easily, give the plate a shake. You should feel or hear it give.
• Refrigerate for several hours or overnight. Slice as you would a torte, and serve as an appetizer. Garnish with the parsley and remaining dill, and serve with red horseradish.

Steps:

• Place the carrots in a saucepan, cover with water and simmer 10 minutes. Add the asparagus, and simmer 10 minutes longer, until the vegetables are tender. Drain well.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Slice 2 of the carrots into thin rounds, and cover the bottom of a 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan with a layer of the rounds. Cover with one-third of the fish mixture. Cover with the asparagus, making a dense layer lengthwise in the pan over the fish. Sprinkle with chives. Cover with another third of the fish. Quarter the remaining carrots lengthwise, and arrange them lengthwise in a layer on top of the fish. Cover with the remaining fish, packing it down in the pan.
• Cover the pan with foil, and place it in a larger pan with 1 1/2 inches of boiling water in it. Place in the oven, and bake for 1 1/2 hours. Refrigerate the loaf pan overnight.
• To unmold, run a knife around the pan. Serve with jellied fish broth and horseradish or mayonnaise.

Steps:

• Bring the water and 2 tablespoons of the oil to a boil in a small saucepan. Remove from the heat, and add the cake meal. Whisk until smooth. Return to the heat and cook, stirring, for about a minute. Remove from heat, and beat in the eggs one at a time. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt, and set aside.
• Heat the remaining oil in a skillet. Add the onion, carrot and leeks, and saute over low heat until tender but not brown.
• Place the vegetables and fresh and smoked salmon in a food processor, and process until finely ground. Add the egg mixture, and process until smooth. Stir in the lemon juice and horseradish. Season with salt.
• Bring the fish stock, water or water and wine to a simmer in a large saucepan -- the liquid should be about 2 1/2 inches deep. Form the fish mixture into ovals using two tablespoons dipped in cold water. Slip the ovals into the simmering liquid, and poach for 20 minutes. Drain, and refrigerate until cold.
• Serve with the mayonnaise.

Steps:

• Place leeks in a saucepan, cover with water and simmer until tender, about 25 minutes. Meanwhile, place carrots in separate saucepan, cover with water and simmer until tender, about 25 minutes. Drain vegetables.
• Puree leeks in a food processor along with 1 tablespoon parsley, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside. Without washing the machine, puree carrots, season them with lemon juice, salt, pepper and nutmeg and set aside.
• Place matzoh meal in a bowl, add fish stock and set aside.
• Without washing food processor, add onions and process until finely chopped. Add fish and process until smoothly pureed. Add softened matzoh meal, eggs and remaining parsley and process until well blended. Season with salt (about 1 teaspoon) and liberally with pepper. Taste mixture for seasoning by poaching a small amount in water, then allowing to cool briefly.
• Preheat oven to 350. Lightly oil a 6-cup loaf pan or ring mold.
• Spread half the fish mixture in the pan, making a depression in middle that extends to within about 1/2 inch of sides. Spread half the leek mixture in depression; spread carrot puree over leeks and top with rest of leeks. Smooth in remaining fish. Rap pan several times on counter top to eliminate air holes. Place wax paper or parchment paper on top of the terrine.
• Set the pan in a larger pan at least 2 inches deep and place in oven. Add 1 to 1 1/2 inches of boiling water to outside pan.
• Bake 50 minutes.
• Remove from oven and let cool. Remove fish loaf from pan and place on a serving dish. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 6 hours to chill completely. Serve in slices with herbed or horseradish sauce on side.
