Mustard Caviar Recipes

POACHED LOBSTER WITH CAVIAR MOUSSE AND DIJON MUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• To make the caviar mousse, mix the mustard and the whipped cream gently together until smooth. Add the finely chopped shallots, and season with salt and pepper. Gently fold in the caviar without breaking the eggs. Set aside.
• To prepare the sauce, combine the creme fraiche with the mustard until it thins out a little. Season with salt and pepper.
• To serve the dish, simply place a cookie ring on the plate. Fill the ring with the caviar mixture, and remove the ring. Place half of a lobster tail on the caviar mixture, and a lobster claw in front of it. Drizzle some mustard sauce around the food. Decorate with some algae, toast, and a sprinkle with black mustard seeds.

COLD SALMON WITH CAVIAR AND MUSTARD SEED SAUCE

Steps:

• Slice each piece of salmon in half horizontally, making 4 thin paillards. Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon to the skillet in batches, and cook so that it is seared on both sides but rare in the center, about 15 seconds a side. Season with salt and pepper, and refrigerate until cold.
• Meanwhile, stir together the mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, water and salt and pepper to taste. To serve, coat 4 plates with the mustard sauce. Place 1 piece of salmon on each plate and top with 1 teaspoon caviar. Fan a few of the cucumber slices on one side of the salmon, and sprinkle the chives over the cucumbers and around the edge of the plate.
