Best 8 Christmas Caviar Sauce Recipes

RED PEPPER PANCAKES WITH SMOKED SALMON, CAVIAR AND CHIVE CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Char the peppers over a flame; place in a bowl and cover to steam until cooled. Peel and seed, reserving the juice.
• Melt the butter in a saucepot and cool. Puree three-quarters of the bell peppers in a blender, then dice and reserve the remainder.
• Whisk to combine the butter, egg yolks, and bell pepper puree. Mix together the flour and baking powder in a separate bowl. Whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until smooth, then chill 10 minutes. Whip egg whites until they hold stiff peaks and fold them into the red pepper batter.
• Form the smoked salmon into rosettes.
• Spoon 1/4 cup pancake batter onto a greased pancake skillet over medium heat. Cook until bubbles start to appear, about 3 minutes, then flip and cook until the bottom is slightly golden, about 3 minutes more.
• Top each pancake with 1 tablespoon of the sauce and a smoked salmon rosette. Dollop a dot of creme fraiche in the center of each rosette. Top with caviar and chives.

ANGEL HAIR PASTA WITH CAVIAR AND LEMON

Steps:

• Make the sauce: Whisk the heavy cream and sour cream in a large skillet and season with salt and pepper. Simmer over medium heat, whisking, until the mixture thickens and all the sour cream melts, 2 to 3 minutes. Add a few grates of lemon zest and some of the lemon juice. Taste for seasoning. At this point the sauce should be thick enough to coat the pasta.
• Meanwhile, cook the pasta: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add 2 tablespoons salt and bring the water back up to a boil. Add the pasta to the pot and cook until al dente, stirring occasionally to make sure it doesn?t clump or stick to the bottom, about 2 minutes. Drain the pasta in a colander, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking water.
• Add the pasta to the skillet and toss to coat with the cream sauce. Shut off the heat and allow the pasta to rest in the sauce for 2 minutes, tossing to coat from time to time. If the sauce is too thin, simmer over low heat for 2 additional minutes. If it is too thick, simply thin it out with some of the reserved pasta water. Taste for seasoning. Add more salt or lemon juice, if needed.
• Spoon a small amount of caviar onto 4 serving plates. Use a fork to twirl the pasta and make a large forkful. Use your index finger to gently coax the pasta off the fork and on top of the caviar on the plate. Repeat with the remaining plates. Spoon any leftover sauce over the pasta. Note: The sauce thickens quickly, so keep it loose with a little pasta water, if needed, as you plate. Sprinkle with the chives and a touch more grated lemon zest.

CHRISTMAS CAVIAR SAUCE

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix together sour cream, lemon juice, shallots, chives, parsley, salt, and both peppers. Gently fold in wasabi-injected roe, if using, caviar, and salmon roe. Can be made ahead and refrigerated, covered, for up to 1 day.

CAVIAR CREAM SAUCE

CAVIAR BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat a tablespoon of the butter in a wide heavy-based saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallot and sweat for a couple of minutes, without allowing it to brown.
• Deglaze the pan with the champagne vinegar. Simmer gently until the liquid has almost evaporated.
• Add the wine and fish stock and reduce until 3 tablespoons remain.
• Cut the remaining butter into large cubes.
• Begin swirling the cold butter into the liquid over medium heat. The liquid should be hot and it doesn't matter if it boils. Stir constantly and continue adding the butter until the desired consistency is achieved. Wait until each piece of butter has emulsified before adding the next. The sauce should coat the back of a spoon.
• Season to taste just before serving and stir in 1 teaspoon of black caviar per person.

CORN CAKES WITH CHRISTMAS CAVIAR

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add corn, shallots, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and black pepper. Cook, stirring, until corn and shallots are tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and cream until well combined. Add cornmeal, flour, masa harina, baking powder, cayenne pepper, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 3/4 cup water. Mix until well combined. Fold in corn-and-shallot mixture.
• Heat 1/2 teaspoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, gently drop batter, a tablespoon at a time, into pan, working in batches as necessary.
