SALMON AND SPINACH TERRINE WITH CUCUMBER-DILL SAUCE
This is an elegant and fairly easy first-course. Most of the work is done by a food processor. And, it can be prepared well a day in advance. I looks as if you spent a lot of time preparing it. I'll never tell!

SALMON AND SPINACH TERRINE
One of the nicest ways to begin a meal is with a chilled terrine of fish. This salmon-cod combination, flavored and colored with fresh spinach leaves, is a favorite at Eniscree Lodge, a charming country retreat perched on a County Wicklow hillside in Eniskerry. Served with brown soda bread, the terrine is perfect for a luncheon dish or as a first course for dinner. From "The Irish Heritage Cookbook"
