Ingredients for Taramosalata Recipe

3 sl French or Italian bread;-OR-
1 Lemon s juice (or more)
2 md -Potatoes, boiled & peeled
2 tb Vinegar
5 oz Tarama (fish roe)
1 tb Water (more if necessary)
1 c Olive oil
1/2 Onion, (optional); grated

Taramosalata Preparation

Soak the tarama in warm water a few minutes, then rinse and drain. If using bread slices, discard crusts, soak bread in water, then squeeze dry. Using an electric blender or electric mixer (or old-fashioned mortar and pestle), thoroughly blend the bread or potatoes and the tarama. Add the olive oil as slowly as possible, blending at medium speed, plus a little water if the mixture forms peaks. Add the grated onion, if desired, then whip at high speed for a few minutes. Note: The flavor may be mitigated to suit taste by adding more bread or potato; a too-salty taste may be adjusted by dropping in a few tablespoons of sour cream while blending. Leftover taramasalata can be stored in a covered jar in the refrigerator for 7 to 10 days. From: The Food of Greece by Vilma Liacouras Chantiles. Avenel Books, NY. via Karen Mintzias
