More than just meat... (0/0 people found this helpful)
What's good is the variety of different terrines. Before I bought this book, I thought they had to be meat based. You could have a great dinner party making a vegetable, a meat, a fish, a cheese and a dessert terrine, no hassle as everything could be made in advance. Most of the recipes are quite simple, the book looks great and is a good price too. Not quite sure about Cook guru's review, I like the pictures in this book, each of the recipes is illustrated with a picture of the finished Terrine.
A great collection of terrine recipes (3/3 people found this helpful)
I absolutely love terrines and pates so when I got this book I was over the moon. The recipes are wonderful with most of the ingredients easy to get hold of. Admittedly the cheese ones are probably the furthest from traditional terrines but given the number of interesting vegetable, fish, meat and dessert recipes that is more than made up for. I also liked the pictures. They looked like real and appetizing food. Any serious cook who wants to add to their cookery book collection should buy this book. I can't wait to try the oxtail terrine, rabbit rilletes and langoustine terrine. If you all you want is a coffee table book with pretty pictures and little substance then you probably won't like it but if you want to cook then give it a try.
POOR BOOK (2/7 people found this helpful)
WISH I HAD NEVER PURCHASED THIS BOOK POOR RECIPES, POOR PICTURES , FINISH PRODUCTS LOOK AWFUL ALL THE MOUSSES AND TERRINES ARE VERY SHODDILY PUT TOGETHER IF YOU READ THE BLURB ABOUT THE AUTHOR (STEPHANE REYNARD) HE IS A BUTCHER BY TRADE AND IT SHOWS AND I THINK THIS CHEF SHOULD LEARN THE DEFINITION OF A TERRINE AS CUTTING A GOATS CHEESE LOG INTO 4 AND PLACING SOME BASIL INBETWEEN DOESNT COUNT AS A TERRINE DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR BUY MAZE OR ESSENCE TWO EXCELLENT BOOKS, AVOID THIS RUBBISH!!!!!!
