Herbed Salmon Terrine
Ingredients
  • 5 cups water
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 (12 ounce) fresh salmon fillet
  • 8 ounces smoked salmon, chopped
  • 1/3 cup chopped green onion
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh tarragon, or to taste
  • 7 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, or to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
1
Begin by heating water to its boiling point in a substantial saucepan and then add salt to the mixture. Next, place a salmon fillet into the saucepan and lower the heat to a gentle simmer. Continue cooking until the salmon reaches its just-cooked state, taking around 6 to 8 minutes. Remove the cooked salmon from the saucepan using a slotted spoon and allow it to rest for 10 minutes.
2
Once the salmon has cooled, take it out of its skin and place it in a large bowl. Add smoked salmon, green onion, parsley, and tarragon to the bowl with the cooled salmon.
3
In a separate bowl, combine butter, mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, and pepper. Whisk the mixture until it is smooth and free of lumps.
4
Add the mayonnaise mixture to the bowl containing the salmon, and gently stir until everything is well combined.
5
Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate for 3 hours.
6
Serve the chilled salmon mixture with toasted baguette slices or crackers.
