(I actually told my friends that they could just use the onions as ‘a spoon’ and just eat the ‘filling’, but nobody did that). I guess the harshness is outbalanced by the 30% sour cream and salmon roe itself.<BR/><BR/>DaviMack -of course it’s worth it. Alternatives: Make these when T. is away visiting friends or 2) just use shallots instead :)<BR/><BR/>Grace – or ice cold vodka, perhaps?<BR/><BR/>Sorina – yes, picturesque and quick and easy!<BR/><BR/>Joey – well, one has to ‘bribe’ her guests, doesn’t she?<BR/><BR/>Susan – I think their presentation was what appealed to me first – and they didn’t disappoint!<BR/><BR/>SwirlingNotions – I’m off to check out your caviar posts right now :)<BR/><BR/>Ximena – well, you could use Lydia’s blanching tip then, perhaps? But raw onion is the traditional accompaniment to caviar/roe, so that’s what we’re eating :)<BR/><BR/>Ann - vehicle is a good word to use here :)<BR/><BR/>Nora B, Paz, Asha – thank you!Pillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05817049547134774699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-40592588018235556862008-01-09T21:16:00.000+02:002008-01-09T21:16:00.000+02:00I love the color of the roe sailing in little purp...I love the color of the roe sailing in little purple boats... so beautiful!<BR/><BR/>-AshaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-51524406684515131052008-01-08T18:56:00.000+02:002008-01-08T18:56:00.000+02:00That is such a good idea, using onions as a vehicl...That is such a good idea, using onions as a vehicle for caviar.

I'd have to soak or blanch the onions to tame them a bit -- raw onions are a bit too strong for me. Blanching for a few seconds really seems to take some of the bite out, but still leaves them crunchy.Lydia (The Perfect Pantry)https://www.blogger.com/profile/18005372315838352874noreply@blogger.com
