Caviar On Potato With Creamy Champagne Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a large saucepan, and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer, and cook until just tender when pierced with the tip of a sharp knife, about 15 minutes. Drain well. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet, and let stand until cool enough to handle.
• Cut off tops and a thin slice from bottoms of 24 potatoes. Using a small melon baller, scoop out flesh from these potatoes, leaving a 1/4-inch-thick shell. Peel remaining 4 potatoes. Press whole potatoes and remaining flesh through a ricer into a medium bowl.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Heat milk and the room-temperature butter in a small saucepan over medium until butter melts. Stir into riced potatoes, a little at a time, until creamy. Stir in creme fraiche and the chives; season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer to a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch plain round tip (such as Ateco #806). Pipe potato mixture into shells, mounding about 1/2 inch above top edge.
• Bake until tops are golden brown and slightly puffed, about 15 minutes. Brush with melted butter, and bake 15 minutes more. Top each potato with about 1/4 teaspoon caviar. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
• Wash potatoes and place on 2 lightly oiled cookie sheets. Bake for about 30 minutes.
• Cool potatoes before handling.
• Trim either end of each potato and then cut in half, leaving trimmed edges on the end to allow potatoes to sit upright. Using a small melon baller, scoop out inside of each potato half, leaving at least 1/8-inch edge.
• Fill pastry bag, fitted with a star tip, with creme fraiche. Fill each scooped-out potato half with piped creme fraiche.
• Garnish top of each potato with red or black lumpfish roe.

Steps:

• Mix first 3 ingredients in medium bowl to blend. Fold in 1/4 cup caviar. Cover and refrigerate. (Dressing can be prepared 2 hours ahead. Keep refrigerated.)
• Cook potatoes in large pot of boiling salted water until tender, about 20 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer potatoes to work surface to cool. Cook beans in same pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain. Rinse beans under cold water to cool. Cut beans into 1-inch lengths. Cut potatoes into quarters.
• Combine potatoes, beans, endive, chopped eggs and green onions in large bowl. Add dressing and toss gently to coat. Season generously with salt and pepper. Divide salad among 4 plates. Top each with 1 teaspoon caviar.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a large mixing bowl, toss the potatoes with 1/2 cup of olive oil, rosemary, and a generous seasoning of salt and pepper. Coat a small roasting pan with the remaining olive oil and put the potatoes in the pan, cut-side down. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, until the potatoes are tender on the inside and golden on the outside.
• Let the potatoes cool slightly and then arrange on a serving platter. Serve the potatoes with the creme fraiche, caviar, and chives for self-service hors d'oeurves. This goes great with champagne. If you wish, spread each potato with a 1/4 teaspoon of creme fraiche and 1/2 teaspoon caviar instead of dipping.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Brush 3 large baking sheets generously with some oil.
• With a mandoline or other manual slicer cut the potatoes crosswise into 1/8-inch thick slices. Arrange slices in 1 layer on a baking sheet and brush with some remaining oil. Sprinkle potatoes with rosemary, salt and pepper. Repeat these steps for remaining 2 baking sheets.
• Bake slices in middle of oven until golden, 15 to 20 minutes. With a metal spatula immediately transfer to a rack to cool completely.
• Top potato chips with 1 teaspoon each of caviar and creme fraiche.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F with a rack in center. Bake potatoes directly on rack until darkened slightly, beginning to wrinkle, and easily pierced with the tip of a knife, 1 to 1 1/2 hours (depending on size).
• Working one at a time, immediately wrap potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and slam down onto a countertop (this ensures a light, fluffy texture). Slash potatoes to open, season, and top generously with dollops of crème fraîche and scoops of caviar. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients except cream cheese, eggs, onion and chips. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours.
• Spread cream cheese on serving plate. Spoon bean mixture evenly over cream cheese.
• Arrange eggs on bean mixture in ring around edge of plate; sprinkle with onion. Serve with tortilla chips.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, cover the potatoes with cold water; bring to a boil and simmer until tender but still quite firm when pierced with the tip of a knife; remove all but 4 potatoes and continue to cook these 4 until soft.
• When cool, cut the tops off the group of 24 potatoes; scoop out the flesh with a melon baller, leaving a 1/4" thick wall; place the pulp in a double boiler or metal bowl over simmering water to keep it warm; peel and add the 4 remaining potatoes.
• Cut a small slice off the bottom of each potato so that they will stand upright on a baking sheet; preheat the oven to 375°; Heat the milk and melt the butter in a small saucepan; push the potato flesh through a ricer, food mill or wide-meshed sieve.
• Stir the milk into the potatoes a bit at a time, until they are creamy; add creme fraiche, salt and pepper and 1 T chives; pipe the potatoes into the shells, making sure the cut edges are covered.
• Bake until golden brown and slightly puffed, about 15 minutes; brush with melted butter and bake another 15 minutes; remove from oven and top with caviar and chives.

Steps:

• For the chips: Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or a deep fryer to 350 degrees F and, working in 2 batches, add the potato slices. Turn with a slotted spoon until crisp, about 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels, season with kosher salt and chopped dill. Repeat with remaining potato slices.
• For the lemon creme fraiche: Mix together the creme fraiche, chives, lemon zest and lemon juice in a large bowl. Serve with the potato chips and caviar for dipping.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Brush both sides of potato slices with olive oil. Place on baking sheet and season lightly with salt and pepper. Bake until golden brown on bottom sides, about 15 minutes. Turn slices over and continue baking until second sides are golden brown, about 15 minutes. Transfer to plate.
• Top slices with small dollops of sour cream. Sprinkle with chives. Spoon small amount of caviar atop sour cream and chives. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Combine first 5 ingredients in medium bowl. Add pepper to taste; stir to blend. Transfer to serving bowl. Sprinkle additional chives around edge of sauce. Steam potatoes in batches until just tender, about 12 minutes per batch. Cool. (Sauce and potatoes can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover separately and chill.) Place bowl of sauce in center of platter. Arrange potatoes and endive on platter. Place dollop of red caviar in center of sauce. Place remaining caviar nearby.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together sour cream, scallions, chives, pepper and salt to taste. Let sit at room temperature for at least 10 minutes so the flavors can meld (or chill for up to 24 hours before serving).
• Spoon caviar on top and serve with potato chips and celery sticks.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together crème fraîche and zest. Top each potato chip with a small dollop of crème fraîche and a spoonful of caviar.
