Nami-Nami Easter Brunch 2011

This year the Easter Brunch coincided with my birthday on April 24th, so I had a hard task of designing a menu that would celebrate Easter, spring and my birthday :) Here's what I served - something light, something green and something yellow - to go with my typical Easter menu.

Snow crab (surimi) salad:


Quail eggs dyed with beetroot:


Home-made wild garlic cheese and home-made caraway cheese (sõir)
 

Smoked salmon (ordered from MEKK restaurant), served with creamy horseradish cream


Wild garlic pesto with almonds:


Crostini with white cheese and onion marmalade


Puff pastry rolls with feta


Cannellini beans with tomatoes and onions:


Limoncello, coconut and white chocolate tart:


Paskha (sorry, no photo for some reason)

The guests brought along some Estonian rye bread, fresh strawberries (imported, of course) and the drinks (Prosecco, white wine, sea-buckthorn juice, freshly squeezed orange juice, water).

From the (future) archives:

We've hosted an Easter brunch for friends annually since 2007 (I moved back home to Estonia and in with K. from Scotland in October 2006, so it's 'our thing'). I see I have a lot of catching up to do :)
