Homemade Tarama
Real homemade tarama, wonderfully soft: smoked fish roe, bread soaked in milk, and a stream of oil whipped in like a mayonnaise.

Ingredients
- 150g smoked cod roe (tarama)
- 2 slices sandwich bread
- 5cl (3½ tbsp) milk
- ½ lemon
- 10cl (½ cup) oil
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
Remove the crusts from the bread slices and soak them in the milk for a few minutes, then squeeze out well.
Blend the fish roe with the soaked bread and the lemon juice.
Add the oil in a thin stream, little by little, blending constantly as for a mayonnaise, until foamy.
Taste and adjust with a little lemon or salt as needed (tarama is often already salty).
Chill for at least 1 hour before serving on toasts or blinis.
