10 ounces cooked salmon, 275 grams skinned and boned
1/4 cucumber, peeled and chopped

1 spring onion, chopped
2 teaspoons gelatin powder
3 tablespoons dry white wine

Steps:

  • In a double boiler or in a bowl over a pan of hot water, sprinkle gelatine over wine and mix well. When combined, increase flame and over very hot water stir until gelatine is dissolved. In a steady stream and stirring constantly, stir the gelatine into the salmon mixture. Blend until well combined and set aside.
