Pheasant terrine

Recipe: Pheasant terrine

Pheasant terrine recipe, impossible to get pheasant from a hunter, I had to order it from my butcher and friend Sam. Not always easy to get game without being a hunter, but supermarkets have become democratized and today game is quite easily found during the season. A pheasant terrine to make Easter, no pâtés en croute this year, but for four years my son has been coming with friends to spend the Easter holidays at home, and my table seems to fill Thibaut’s young friends, finally young they are approaching in his thirties. I will serve them my pheasant terrine with pickled cherries and the few mushrooms that I have marinated in vinegar.
