Yield Makes serves 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup sour cream
8 hard-boiled large eggs, finely chopped
1/2 cup finely chopped onion (1 medium)
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh dill
2 teaspoons finely grated fresh lemon zest
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives
7 oz black lumpfish caviar (see cooks' note below)
Accompaniments: lemon wedges; 16 thin slices whole-wheat toast, buttered, then halved or quartered diagonally
Special Equipment
a 9-inch nonstick springform pan; a small offset spatula

Steps:

  • Put 1/2 cup sour cream in a paper-towel-lined sieve set over a bowl, then let drain, covered with plastic wrap and chilled, 3 hours.
  • Stir together remaining 1/4 cup sour cream, eggs, onion, butter, dill, zest, salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon chives until combined well.
  • Invert bottom of springform pan (so that turned-up edge is underneath for easy removal of tart) and close side of pan around bottom. Spread egg mixture evenly in pan with offset spatula, smoothing top. Cover surface with plastic wrap, pressing gently, and chill until firm, at least 3 hours.
  • Spread drained sour cream evenly over egg mixture with offset spatula.
  • Gently spread half of caviar on several sheets of paper towels to absorb excess cuttlefish ink. Carefully lift caviar from paper towels and spread on top of egg mixture (be careful not to smash caviar). Repeat method with remaining caviar. Serve cut into wedges and sprinkled with remaining chives, if desired.

I had a hard time finding caviar, so I used smoked salmon instead. It was still very good, but I think the caviar would have been better.

I was a little hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of caviar. But I'm so glad I did! The caviar was actually very mild and delicate, and it paired perfectly with the other ingredients.

This caviar tart was an absolute delight! The combination of flavors and textures was incredible. The caviar was rich and creamy, while the tart crust was buttery and flaky. The crème fraîche added a touch of tanginess that balanced out the richness
