Terrine Hardcover – 1 Feb. 2008

I have been looking for a terrine Cook book for quite a while as I think terrines are ideal when entertaining as you can get everything prepared in advance. This book has a very good selection fish, meat, sweet etc. the book was delivered inside the estimated timing.

This book has recipes which are very fancy and not for the faint hearted. Beautiful pictures and recipies. Lovely gift.

NOT QUITE WHAT I EXPECTED BUT WILL TRY SOME OF THE RECIPES.

Great terrine book! I really love it. Specialy ox tail terrine I have to recommend. Its quite easy and the taste....

Very nice things in this book

superb book for endless varied starters

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.

Like a lot of people it seems, I'm something of a Phaidon Cookbook junky. Whatever else you can say they're always so beautifully put together - always a stunning addition to the kitchen bookshelves. I'll admit that some may have found their way there never to be consulted again (except for mouthwatering glances). This is not one of them.Reynaud's terrines are nicely organized - there's a five-course, terrine-based meal in here I know it - into Veg, Fish, Meat, Cheese and Desserts. The variety in recipes is great, with simple and more challenging terrines for the home cook. For me the 4 sauces for terrines at the end of each section was a delight. Simple, elegant, easy accompaniments for the main show.To cut the foodie rambling short this is a fantastic book.
