Rabbit and Pork Terrine with Hazelnuts

This delicious and easy to make terrine combines tender rabbit and ground pork with the subtle sweetness of hazelnuts. Perfect as a starter or a light lunch, this terrine is sure to impress your guests.

Ingredients:

1 rabbit, boned and cut into small pieces
1 lb ground pork
1 cup hazelnuts, roughly chopped
1 onion, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1/2 cup white wine
1 egg
Salt, to taste
Black pepper, to taste

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350°F.
In a large bowl, combine the rabbit pieces, ground pork, hazelnuts, onion, garlic, thyme, white wine, egg, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan. Press the meat mixture into the pan, making sure to pack it down well. Cover with foil.
Place the loaf pan into a larger baking dish. Add enough hot water to the baking dish to come halfway up the sides of the loaf pan.
Bake for 1 1/2 hours, or until the terrine is cooked through. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
When ready to serve, turn the terrine out of the loaf pan and slice into pieces. Serve with crusty bread, mustard, and cornichons.

Verdict:

The combination of rabbit, pork, and hazelnuts is truly delightful. The terrine is easy to make, yet impressive in both taste and appearance. Perfect for any occasion!
