Aspic tastes of practically nothing, I use it to glaze meat and fish intended for decorative use only, years ago chefs covered everything in aspic and to this day I can't understand it. Miles Elsie,

I guess that these are easier to make than they look. Are there any that you might recommend for a buffet with which I might tempt my guests? Miles,

In fact a quick sneak into the cupboards of friends and relatives reveals a complete lack of the stuff. In the past my attempts at 'champagne jelly' and the like, have been a cross between a rubbery slice and a river! A recipe for a cold terrine would be very welcome. Cid Miles,
