- Spoon half the spinach mixture into the pan. Cut the salmon into 1/2 inch thick crosswise slices.
- Lay the slices of salmon on top of the spinach mixture and sprinkle with nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
- Spoon the remaining spinach mixture over the top.
- Cover with another piece of greased foil, place the loaf pan in a baking dish, and add hot water to come two thirds up the sides of the loaf pan.
- Bake for 1-1/4 hours.
- Remove both pans from the oven and let the terrine cool in the water bath for 2 to 3 hours.
- Remove from the water bath and refrigerate for at least 12 hours or up to 24 hours.
- To serve, loosen the sides of the terrine with a warm knife and unmold onto a serving plate.
- Cut into 8 slices and serve over a bed of mixed greens garnished with cherry tomatoes.
