Sea sweetness in a terrine: the chic and stress-free starter

Introduction and Inspiration:
Fish terrine is a starter I like to serve with elegant dishes. It has the advantage of being able to be prepared in advance, without stress or haste.

It’s a dish that always makes a statement with its delicate texture, mild flavor, and sophisticated presentation. Yet, its preparation is surprisingly simple.

This light and fragrant version is best enjoyed chilled. It’s perfect for a dinner with friends, a cold buffet, or even a festive meal.

I often serve it with a light sauce, some fresh herbs, and a nice crisp salad.

Memories of cooking with family:
My mother often prepared fish terrines for special occasions. It was his favorite way to enjoy food without spending hours in the kitchen.

I remember the sweet smell of the fish cooking, the melting texture we discovered with each slice. It was an experience we always looked forward to.

She prepared it the night before and let it rest quietly in the cool overnight. The next day, it was perfect, ready to slice and serve.

Today, I’m happy to be able to resume this ritual. And I’m approaching it in my own way, with a touch of tomato and chives.

The pleasure of homemade:
When making a homemade terrine, you can choose exactly what you put in it. No additives, no preservatives, just good, simple ingredients.

Quickly mix everything, pour it into a mold, and let the oven do the rest. This is one of the easiest recipes I know.

I use white fish like cod or whiting. They have a perfect texture for this type of preparation.
