Amusing Anecdote: As for Tajines and Cassoulet, Terrine takes its name from the typically shaped container in which it is traditionally made. This can lead to misunderstandings….For example Rabbit terrine, Wild Boar terrine and Venison terrine actually have pork as their main ingredient. In fact only vegetarian patés contain no pork!
