Tuna Mousse Terrine with Olives image

Tasty and beautiful, this mousse-like textured terrine is impressively studded with pimento-stuffed olives. It's great for entertaining and looks far more difficult than it really is. Serve it on greens along with crackers or slices of Melba toast.

Time 2h25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

15 pimento-stuffed green olives
1 (.25 ounce) package unflavored Jell-O®
2 (12.5 ounce) cans water-packed tuna, drained
1 cup mayonnaise
½ cup ketchup
¼ teaspoon paprika
1 pinch white pepper
1 tablespoon white sugar

Steps:

  • Slicing crosswise, cut each stuffed olive into 3 or 4 slices. Spray a small 3-cup terrine, or decorative mold with a flat bottom, with non-stick spray. Carefully cover the bottom of the terrine with the sliced olives, making sure that the pimentos stay in the center of the olives.
  • In a small saucepan over low heat, heat 1/2 cup of water. Stir in the gelatin until it completely dissolves, stirring constantly so that the gelatin does not burn.
  • Place the tuna, mayonnaise, ketchup, paprika, white pepper and sugar in an electric blender. Process until smooth. Add the gelatin into the mixture and process again until it becomes a uniform paste. Carefully spoon the tuna mixture into the terrine over the olives until the dish is full to the rim. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. When ready, remove the tuna mousse from the mold and serve.

The terrine was delicious, but it was a bit too time-consuming to make. I think I would only make it for special occasions.

The terrine was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would have used less salt in the recipe.

The terrine was a bit dry. I think I would have added more mayonnaise or sour cream to make it more moist.

This tuna mousse terrine was a bit too fishy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a different type of fish, such as salmon or trout.
