Caviar Served On Ice Cubes Recipes

OYSTERS, CAVIAR AND BUBBLES

Steps:

• Combine the lemon juice, shallots and peppercorns in a small bowl. Let sit in the fridge for about 1 hour to let the flavors marry.
• Just before serving, add the prosecco to the sauce and season with a pinch of salt. Spoon the desired amount of the mignonette sauce over the oysters and top each with a dollop of caviar. Serve immediately.

CAVIAR SANDWICH

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.

HONEYDEW MELON SOUP WITH ICE WINE

Steps:

• Scoop out melon flesh, preserving the rind to use as serving bowls.
• In a blender, puree melon, lime juice and mint.
• Strain puree through a fine strainer and discard solids. Add optional ice wine, if desired. Chill for a minimum of 1 hour.
• Serve in hollowed out melon halves.

CAVIAR AND SMOKED SALMON ON TOASTED BRIOCHE CUBES

Steps:

• Cut bread slices into about thirty 1-inch cubes. Cut salmon lengthwise into 1/2-inch-wide strips and crosswise into 4-inch-long pieces. In a large non-stick skillet heat 3 tablespoons butter over moderate heat until foam subsides and brown half of cubes on 2 opposite sides until golden, about 2 minutes, transferring to a platter. Brown remaining cubes in same manner.
• Top each cube decoratively with salmon, caviar, and crème fraîche or sour cream.
