SALMON MOUSSE

got this from Australia's greatest cook, Margaret Fulton, my mentor :) Great luncheon dish, or entree, also great for a party, served with crackers. I have made this as individual serves, (muffin size, using paper cups, great for picnics) and in a ring mould, putting the sauce in the centre. I sometimes add a few slices of smoked salmon, when it is on special :) cook time is refridgeration time
