Nonstick vegetable oil spray
1 tablespoon butter

1/2 cup dry vermouth

4 ounces bay scallops
1/2 cup fresh breadcrumbs made from French bread

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Spray nonstick spray inside 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 x 2 1/2-inch loaf pan. Melt butter in small saucepan over medium-low heat. Add shallots; sauté until tender, about 2 minutes. Add vermouth and simmer until liquid is reduced to 1 tablespoon, about 6 minutes. Cool.
  • Finely chop salmon and scallops in processor. Add shallot mixture, breadcrumbs, egg, salt, pepper and pepper sauce. With machine running, gradually add cream and process just until puréed.
  • In medium bowl, mix spinach with 1 cup salmon purée. Spread half of remaining purée in pan. Spread spinach mixture over purée in pan. Spread remaining salmon purée over spinach mixture. Cover with buttered waxed paper.
  • Place loaf pan in roasting pan. Add enough hot water to roasting pan to come 1/2 inch up sides of loaf pan. Bake terrine until thermometer inserted into center registers 140°F, about 55 minutes. Transfer loaf pan to rack and cool. Remove waxed paper. Cover and chill until cold, at least 4 hours and up to 1 day.
  • Invert terrine onto platter. Cut crosswise into 12 slices. Transfer 1 slice to each plate. Spoon Cucumber-Dill Sauce alongside. Garnish with dill sprigs.
