Fish Loaf Recipe with Salmon and Cod

I’d been wanting to try a fish loaf recipe for a long time, especially since this summer, when I ate some at my man’s cousin’s house, with a homemade tomato coulis. It’s a really tasty and refreshing starter.

So for Christmas I tested a recipe based on salmon and cod. It’s really delicious and you can give it a festive look by adding some shrimp inside or small pieces of smoked salmon. It will look very pretty once cut.

As for me, for more graphic appeal, I’ve separated my preparations into 2, one with the salmon and one with the cod, which looks nicer on the plate.

I made this recipe with my little KitchenAid multifunction food processor, and for those of you who follow me, you’ve seen that you can make a lot of things with it:

• gratin dauphinois,
• pumpkin and chestnut soup,
• cauliflower tabbouleh,
• chestnut cream,
• and now, my fish loaf!

It’s now one of my kitchen essentials 😉
