Yield Serves 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 tablespoons mayonnaise
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
8 hard-cook large eggs, chopped fine
1/2 cup finely chopped celery
1/3 cup finely chopped red onion
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, or to taste
1/4 cup finely chopped scallion greens
1/4 cup minced fresh chives
1/4 cup minced fresh dill
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sour cream
6 ounces salmon caviar
Garnish: dill sprigs
Accompaniments: pumpernickel and rye toast points

  • In a small bowl stir together cream cheese and sour cream until smooth. Drop dollops of cream-cheese mixture over herbs and spread carefully (keeping herb layer intact) to form an even topping. Chill torte, covered, at least 8 hours and up to 1 day.

Not a fan of caviar, but this dish was still very good.

This was a delicious and easy-to-make dish. I used smoked salmon instead of fresh salmon, and it turned out great. I also added a bit of lemon zest to the whipped cream cheese, which gave it a nice citrusy flavor.

I made this for my family and they all loved it. The salmon was moist and flavorful, and the caviar added a nice touch of luxury. The only thing I would change is to use less salt, as I found it to be a bit too salty for my taste.

This salmon caviar torte was a hit at my dinner party! The combination of flavors and textures was divine. The salmon was perfectly cooked, and the caviar added a briny pop of flavor. The whipped cream cheese and dill were the perfect finishing touch
