BASIL-CHEESE TERRINE
I've been using this recipe since 1996. Whenever I serve it or take it to a party I always write up several recipe cards in advance because the request will come after one taste. Not only yummy, but lovely presentation. Because everyone likes it so much it gives me pleasure to make it. It's a sure fire *winner*. Tried and true.
