SMOKED SALMON TERRINE WITH SPINACH

Steps:

• Wash the spinach in three changes of cold water and drain it. Put it in three quarts of boiling salted water (not in an aluminum pot), and cook vigorously over high heat for four minutes. Plunge the spinach in ice water to cool it. Drain. Press the excess water out of the spinach by forming it into a ball in your hands and squeezing it.
• Put the spinach, butter, Worcestershire sauce and Tabasco in a food processor. Process until you have a smooth paste.
• Butter the bottom and sides of a one-and-a-half-quart terrine mold. Then line the mold with parchment paper.
• Fill mold with layers: thin sliced salmon alternating with one-fourth-inch spinach layers. The bottom and top layers should be salmon.
• Refrigerate for at least three hours before serving. To remove the terrine from its mold, invert it over a serving plate. If necessary, slip a knife between the parchment paper and the mold, or lower the mold into hot water for a few minutes before inverting it. Cut the terrine in one-fourth-inch slices with a knife that is dipped in hot water before each cut.

• Evenly fill the 4 dishes with spinach mixture and cover with the outside part of the salmon leaves.

SMOKED SALMON TERRINE

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.
