INGREDIENTS

For the Crispy Base:

  • 6 Savory shortbreads (such as seeded crackers, savory "palets bretons", or grissini sticks)

For the Avocado Cream:

  • 2 ripe avocados

  • Juice of 1 lime (or lemon)

  • 2 tablespoons of plain fresh cheese (such as Philadelphia or similar cream cheese)

  • Salt, pepper

For the Salmon Rillettes Topping:

PREPARATION

  1. Crispy Base: Roughly crumble the savory shortbreads or crackers of your choice.

  2. Avocado Cream: Mash the avocado flesh with a fork to obtain a slightly textured consistency. Fold in the lemon/lime juice, fresh cheese, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly.

  3. Rillettes: In a small bowl, gently mix the Scottish Salmon Rillettes Groix & Nature with the chopped dill and the Groix & Nature Lobster Oil for a subtle aroma.

ASSEMBLY

  1. Spread the crumbled shortbreads at the bottom of the verrines (small glasses/jars). Press lightly to create a stable base.
  2. Layer the avocado cream over the crispy base in each verrine.
  3. Generously place the rillettes mixture on top of the avocado layer.
  4. Place the verrines in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to develop and the textures to stabilize.
  5. Just before serving, garnish each verrine with a small sprig of fresh dill. You can also add a few pink peppercorns for a festive and refined touch of color.

Enjoy your meal!
