Taramasalata
This is my version of the Greek taram
Makes enough for: 1 batch Taramasalata
Ingredients
- 100 g crustless stale white bread
- water for soaking
- 175 g cod roe
- 60 mls lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic, peeled and crushed
- 60 mls olive oil
- freshly ground black pepper to season
Method
- Break the bread up and place it into a bowl
- Cover with water and leave to soak for 5 minutes
- Drain and squeeze out any excess water then place the bread into a blender
- Add the roe, lemon juice and garlic and blitz to combine
- Slowly pour the olive oil in while the blender is running until completely incorporated
- Season to taste with black pepper and refrigerate for at least an hour to allow the flavours to develop, and the tarama to firm up
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for a couple of weeks at the most
