Caviar Tart Recipes

Steps:

• Arrange tart shells on a serving platter. Spoon crème fraîche into a small resealable plastic bag and snip a 1/4" opening in the corner. Pipe about 1/2 tablespoon crème fraîche onto one side of tart shells and spoon 1/2 teaspoon caviar onto the other side. Garnish with chives and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the cream cheese until smooth. With the mixer on medium speed, add the sour cream, lemon juice, dill, scallion, milk, salt, and pepper. With a rubber spatula, fold in 3/4 of the salmon roe. Spoon the dip into a bowl and garnish with the remaining salmon roe and sprigs of fresh dill.
• Serve with chips, toasts, or crackers.

Steps:

• Dice the hard boiled eggs. Stir in the mayonnaise and onions. Season mixture. In a greased springform pan, layer the egg mixture.
• Beat the cream cheese and sour cream until smooth. Stir in the fresh parsley. Season mixture. Layer on top of egg mixture and smooth surface.
• Chill for several hours or overnight.
• Drain each color of caviar on separate paper towels.
• Create a shape or design, using the different colors of caviar. Chill.
• Be careful unmolding the springform pan.
• Serve with toast points or crackers.

Steps:

• On a floured surface roll out the puff pastry 1/8 inch thick and with a 3-inch star-shaped cutter cut out 8 pastry stars. Transfer the stars to a lightly greased baking sheet, brush the tops with the egg wash, being careful not to let the wash drip down the sides, and bake the stars in the middle of a preheated 400°F. oven 12 to 15 minutes, or until they are puffed and golden. Transfer the stars to a rack and let them cool completely. With a sharp small knife carefully split the stars in half horizontally to form a total of 16 stars, leaving the bottoms cut sides up and the tops cut sides down. Just before serving, spoon about 1 teaspoon of the sour cream onto each star, divide the caviar among the stars, and sprinkle the hors d'oeuvres with the chives.

Steps:

• Mix the bottom layer ingredients and put in an 8 inch springform pan.
• Put middle layer on top of that; and then mix top layer ingredients and put on top.
• Chill overnight.
• Use a cookie cutter on top and fill with caviar to make a nice design.
• We used a heart shape at the wedding and filled it with salmon roe and made a nice design of salmon roe around the border-- one of our colors was orange for the wedding so it looked lovely.
• I've also seen this with small red caviar in the middle in a heart shape with black caviar all around the edges-- gorgeous.
• remove the sides of the springform pan to serve with crackers.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix the crème fraîche, scallions, black pepper and kosher salt. Stir aggressively with a rubber spatula until the ingredients are fully incorporated and the crème fraîche is smooth and spreadable. Set aside.
• Bring a small pot of water to boil over medium-high heat. Carefully lower your eggs into the boiling water using a slotted spoon, taking care not to crack the shells. Cook the eggs for 7 minutes, adjusting heat as needed to maintain a gentle boil. Remove eggs to a bowl of ice water, and cool completely. Gently crack eggs all over, peel and roughly chop. Set aside.
• Toast white bread until light golden brown. Remove from toaster, and butter each slice, as we say, wall to wall.
• Repeat with the scallion crème fraîche so that both halves of each sandwich have an even schmear.
• Spread an even layer of chopped egg on 4 slices (of the total of 8 slices) of toast.
• Evenly dot the caviar on top of the chopped egg.
• Sprinkle chives on top of the caviar.
• Place the remaining 4 slices of crème-fraîche toast on top of the egg-caviar side. Press down very gently, and slice in half on the bias. Serve at once.
