Take note

1

Prepare the Tomato Mixture

Start by selecting ripe, juicy tomatoes. Slice them into thin rounds, about 1/4 inch thick. Lay the tomato slices on a paper towel to absorb excess moisture.

2

Make the Gelatin Base

In a small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over cold water and let it bloom for about 5 minutes. Then, gently heat the mixture over low heat until the gelatin is fully dissolved.

3

Mix the Tomato and Gelatin

Transfer the gelatin mixture to a blender or food processor. Add the tomato slices, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and well combined.

4

Line the Terrine Mold

Line a terrine mold with plastic wrap, leaving some overhang on the sides. This will make it easier to unmold the terrine later.

5

Layer the Tomato Mixture

Pour a thin layer of the tomato mixture into the terrine mold. Use a spatula to spread it evenly. Repeat this process, layering the tomato mixture until the mold is filled.

6

Chill and Set

Cover the terrine mold with the overhanging plastic wrap. Place it in the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 4 hours, or until the terrine is fully set.

7

Unmold and Serve

Remove the terrine from the refrigerator. Gently lift the plastic wrap to release the terrine from the mold. Slice it into bite-sized pieces and serve with a garnish of fresh herbs.
