Steps:
- For the poppy seed crackers: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
- Pulse the flour, poppy seeds, onion powder and kosher salt together in a food processor to combine. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add 1/4 cup of the half-and-half and process until the dough begins to clump together.
- Lay out a large piece of parchment paper and dust it with flour. Turn the dough out onto the parchment, form it into a flat rectangle and then roll it out to approximately 10 by 17 inches. Freeze until firm, about 10 minutes.
- Trim the dough to straighten the edges, then cut into 2-by-1-inch rectangles. Brush the tops with the remaining tablespoon of half-and-half and sprinkle with the flaky sea salt. Transfer the crackers on the parchment to a baking sheet and bake until crisp and light golden brown, about 30 minutes. Cool on a rack. (The crackers can be made up to 1 day ahead and stored in an airtight container at room temperature.)
- For the egg mousse: Pulse the eggs, mayonnaise, lemon juice and some kosher salt in a food processor until very smooth. Add the chives and pulse to combine. Transfer to a pastry bag fitted with a medium tip and refrigerate until ready to use.
- To assemble: Pipe the mousse onto the crackers. Top with a small dollop of caviar and some chives. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Rinse cod well to remove external salt. Cover with cold water by 2 inches in a bowl and soak, chilled, changing water 3 times, about 24 hours.
- Peel potato and cut into 1-inch pieces. Put in a 2-quart saucepan with salted water to cover by 1 inch. Bring to a boil and simmer potato until very tender, about 15 minutes. (Do not drain until ready to whip.)
- While potato is cooking, bring cream to a simmer with garlic, bay leaf, thyme, and clove in a very small heavy saucepan, then simmer gently, partially covered, until garlic is tender, about 15 minutes. Discard bay leaf, thyme, and clove and purée garlic with cream in a blender until smooth.
- Meanwhile, drain cod and transfer to another 2-quart saucepan with water to cover. Bring just to a simmer and remove from heat. (Cod will just flake; do not boil or it will become tough.)
- Drain cod and potatoes in a colander and, while still warm, combine in a large bowl with cream mixture. Beat with an electric mixer at low speed until combined well. Add oil in a slow stream, beating, and season with salt and white pepper. Top crackers with warm brandade just before serving.

FENNEL & POPPY SEED CRACKER WREATH
Arrange savoury biscuits in a pretty circle around your chosen cheese for a decorative centrepiece and alternative cheeseboard

Time 55m
Yield Makes 1 wreath for 6-8 people with cheese
Number Of Ingredients 6
Steps:
- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Line one baking sheet with parchment. Place the flour, baking powder, butter, fennel and poppy seeds with ½ tsp salt in a food processor, then whizz for a minute until the butter is completely mixed with the flour. Add 100ml water and pulse until the mixture comes together to a firm dough that's not sticky - you may need another tbsp or so of water, if it still feels.
- Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface as thinly as you can. Stamp out lots of different sized circles using a selection of round and fluted biscuit cutters of 4cm, 5cm and 6cm diameter. Brush a little milk over the surface of the biscuits, and prick all over with a fork. Start to arrange in a circle on the baking sheet, overlapping each other. If you want to serve a cheese in the centre, check that it will fit. Scatter over a few more fennel and poppy seeds and bake for 15 - 20 mins until the biscuits feel dry and sandy with a slightly golden colour around the edges - they may still feel soft but will harden up when cooling. Cool on the baking sheet. Serve with cheese & chutney. Will keep in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

Yield Makes about 60 crackers
Number Of Ingredients 7
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Stir together egg, water, and salt. Brush each tortilla on 1 side with egg wash, then, holding over a bowl, sprinkle with poppy seeds to cover completely.
- Cut out 7 or 8 stars from each coated tortilla (you'll have to press hard; use a pot holder to protect your hands), transferring to 2 baking sheets, seeded sides up. Bake, 1 sheet at a time, in middle of oven until crisp, about 15 minutes. Cool crackers on a rack.
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
- Soak the salt cod in cold water for at least 24 hours, changing the water every 8 hours. This will help to remove the excess salt.
- When poaching the salt cod, bring the water to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and cook for 10-15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through.
- Flake the cooked salt cod into small pieces before adding it to the brandade.
- Use a food processor or immersion blender to puree the brandade until it is smooth and creamy.
- Season the brandade to taste with salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper.
- Chill the brandade for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help it to firm up.
- Serve the brandade with crackers, bread, or vegetables.
Conclusion:
Brandade is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or snack. It is a great way to use up leftover salt cod, and it can be made ahead of time, making it a convenient option for busy weeknights. With its creamy texture and rich flavor, brandade is sure to please everyone at the table.
