I decided to do a spin on the frosted meatloaf I talked about earlier; meatloaf cupcakes with mashed potato frosting:

I will. Just by chance I opened this thread, good that I did, had no idea terrine or aspic should be posted here to, or could.
I am trying to see your terrine, but cannot seem to find it?
I read a discussion on it, but do not see IT...

Splendid! I never knew one could use ground meat for it...but, thinking now, why not...even chicken and fish I read...
Yours is better, at least it cuts. Mine is kind of ...you'll see...but it also tastes good.
Thanks<!

I'll try plating up tomorrow! Hubby did it today because I'd spent the afternoon in the veg plot trying to locate potatoes (long story) and was in the shower at the time. Homegrown spuds.
Changed the recipe slightly from last time, same quantities, but I didn't grate the carrot (chopped instead) and changed the teriyaki sauce to a marinade that was thicker (or vice versa)... left the tempeh chunkier as well. cooked for 1½hrs in the oven and the served cold because it was a warmer day, so cold sauce as well.

Looks so inviting and delicious!
No. I think meatloaf reimagined as a cupcake was just too uptown for the old farts!

Yes, I have seen it called brawn in UK recipes. Most of those recipes use little if any vinegar (of those I have run into).
No - it is lungs that are illegal in the US. You can eat head meat. In fact, if you get hot dogs and sausages, most brands will include meat from the head. It may be illegal in some areas of the US to use cattle brains, and in fact most head cheese won't include brains anyway -- too soft and mushy. You'll find tongue and cheek and jaw meat for sure in head cheese. As well as the meat around the eye sockets - eyes themselves don't appear to be used. PS - I have yet to run into head cheese without meat from the tongue - you can tell when you see it. I have not heard of using shoulder meat in this.I thought that REAL head cheese was illegal in the US.

Head cheese, as in the above recipe, will also often include trotters, for the increase of collagen/gelatin factor.
A big thank you to all who contributed this month. I now see the humble meatloaf in a new light!
March is all about chilli/chili or however you want to spell it: Dish of the month (March 2022): Chilli (including plant based)

Yeah, I think it is the brain part that is illegal. I think it had something to do with the Mad Cow Disease thing way back when. I know cheeks an tongue are okay, and readily available.
