Terrines Of Smoked Salmon And Scallops Recipes

Steps:

• Lightly oil 8 small ramekins. Line with cling film, then the salmon (either 1 large or 2 smaller slices), allowing plenty of overhang.
• Gently mix together the cheese, chives and avocado with the lemon juice and plenty of seasoning. Spoon into the salmon-lined ramekins, press down, fold over the overlapping salmon, then cling film to seal in the mixture. Can be made the night before, but if making on the day they should be chilled for at least 4 hrs.
• On the day, gently lift the terrines out of the ramekins using the cling film, then remove the film. Place the terrines on plates with some baby salad leaves tossed in a little vinaigrette. Drizzle the terrine and plate with sweet chilli sauce. Serve on their own or with toast.

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.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of the olive oil with the vinegar, a little salt and pepper, and the salmon. Just before serving, put the shells on a baking sheet covered with crumpled aluminum foil so the shells stay flat. Preheat the broiler. Arrange the scallops in their shells and spoon on the smoked salmon mixture. Season lightly with salt and pepper and slide under the broiler for about 3 minutes, until the tops of the scallops turn opaque. Decorate each scallop with a tiny pinch of chives. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Combine scallops and wine in skillet. Cover and simmer over medium heat until scallops are just opaque in center, about 5 minutes. Drain, chill until cold, about 2 hours. Cut scallops into 1/2-inch pieces.
• Line 12 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.).

Steps:

• Discard any discolored leaves from leeks, then cut off root end (to expose layers) and discard. Thinly slice enough of dark green ends to measure 1/4 cup. Wash sliced leeks well and reserve for broth. Keep remainder of leeks (for lining) separately.
• Bring wine and water to a boil in a 2-quart saucepan with sliced leeks, onion, carrot, cilantro sprigs, 1 tablespoon ginger, 1/2 teaspoon crushed coriander seeds, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon white pepper, then simmer, partially covered, 20 minutes. Pour broth through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing hard on and then discarding solids. (You will have 1 to 1 1/2 cups broth.) Set bowl in a larger bowl of ice and cold water and chill broth until cold, 5 to 10 minutes.
• While broth is simmering, slit 1 side of each leek lengthwise, cutting only to center, and peel off layers. Rinse layers in warm water to remove any grit, then cook in a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling salted water until tender, about 10 minutes. Transfer with tongs to a bowl of ice and cold water to stop cooking, then spread layers flat on paper towels and pat dry.
• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 325°F.
• Lightly oil loaf pan, then line bottom and long sides of pan by draping some of leeks crosswise over bottom and up long sides of pan, allowing at least 1 inch of leeks to hang over each side.
• Cut salmon into 1-inch cubes, then weigh on scale (if using) with enough scallops (about 3) to total 1/2 lb and set aside together.
• Purée remaining 1/2 lb scallops (about 10) with 1 tablespoon egg white, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon white pepper in a food processor until smooth. Add 1/2 cup cooled broth and blend well. With motor running, add 3 tablespoons oil in a slow stream until incorporated. Transfer scallop purée to lined terrine with a rubber spatula and smooth top evenly.
• Stir together chopped cilantro leaves, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and remaining tablespoon ginger and 1/2 teaspoon crushed coriander seeds in a small bowl, then sprinkle evenly over scallop purée.
• Purée salmon and scallop mixture with remaining tablespoon egg white, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon white pepper in processor until smooth. Add 1/2 cup cooled broth and blend well. With motor running, add remaining 3 tablespoons oil in a slow stream until incorporated. Spoon salmon purée evenly over herb mixture to fill terrine, then smooth top. Fold leeks over purée to cover, filling in any bare spots with additional pieces of remaining leeks. Cover surface of terrine with an oiled piece of wax paper or parchment (oiled side down).
• Put loaf pan in a larger baking pan and bake in a hot water bath until terrine is just cooked through (terrine will be firm to the touch and will separate easily from sides of pan), about 30 minutes. Let terrine stand in loaf pan on a rack at least 15 minutes before unmolding.
• Whisk together vinegar, salt, and white pepper, then add oil in a slow stream, whisking until combined well. Toss frisée, endive, and radicchio in a large bowl with just enough vinaigrette to coat.
• Divide salad among 8 plates, then unmold terrine (warm or at room temperature) and cut into 8 slices. Divide among plates, then drizzle with remaining vinaigrette and sprinkle with fleur de sel, crushed coriander seeds, and cilantro.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
• Add garlic and cook 30 seconds.
• Stir together milk and cornstarch; add to garlic.
• Cook and stir over medium-low heat till thickened and bubbly.
• Add mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, pepper, and saffron; stir till cheeses are melted and smooth.
• Add scallops, green onion, and capers; cook 3-5 minutes, stirring often, till scallops are done.
• Stir in salmon.
• Serve over hot cooked fettuccine or pasta.

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.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F. Spray nonstick spray inside 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 x 2 1/2-inch loaf pan. Melt butter in small saucepan over medium-low heat. Add shallots; sauté until tender, about 2 minutes. Add vermouth and simmer until liquid is reduced to 1 tablespoon, about 6 minutes. Cool.
• Finely chop salmon and scallops in processor. Add shallot mixture, breadcrumbs, egg, salt, pepper and pepper sauce. With machine running, gradually add cream and process just until puréed.
• In medium bowl, mix spinach with 1 cup salmon purée. Spread half of remaining purée in pan. Spread spinach mixture over purée in pan. Spread remaining salmon purée over spinach mixture. Cover with buttered waxed paper.
• Place loaf pan in roasting pan. Add enough hot water to roasting pan to come 1/2 inch up sides of loaf pan. Bake terrine until thermometer inserted into center registers 140°F, about 55 minutes. Transfer loaf pan to rack and cool. Remove waxed paper. Cover and chill until cold, at least 4 hours and up to 1 day.
• Invert terrine onto platter. Cut crosswise into 12 slices. Transfer 1 slice to each plate. Spoon Cucumber-Dill Sauce alongside. Garnish with dill sprigs.

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.
