Best 11 Christmas Caviar Sauce Recipes

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.

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.

Steps:

• With a serrated knife, cut off the top 1 1/2 inches of each artichoke. Cut or break off the stems flush with the bottoms and remove the outer two rows of leaves. Rub cut surfaces with the lemon half as you work. Place the trimmed artichokes in a glass or ceramic dish large enough to hold them without touching. Cover tightly with microwave plastic wrap. Cook at 100 percent power in a high-power oven for 10 minutes. Prick plastic to release steam.
• Remove from oven and uncover. Cover the dish with a damp cloth until artichokes are cool enough to handle. Push down on the leaves to make a flower shape and to expose the pale center leaves covering the fuzzy choke. Pull out the cone of center leaves, and with a small spoon, scrape out the choke. Allow to cool. Cover tightly, and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Whisk together the mayonnaise, brandy, water, lemon juice and pepper until smooth. Stir in salmon roe and chives. Refrigerate until cold.
• Place each artichoke bottom on a plate. Spoon some of the sauce into the heart and around each artichoke, and serve.
