CAVIAR WITH HOUSE-MADE POTATO CHIPS AND LEMON CRèME FRAICHE
I have been cooking the Feast of the Seven Fishes in my house for so many years and this dish is one of my favorites. I love to snack on this in the kitchen while I'm cooking up the rest of the big meal. Caviar is a specialty item, but you can easily make it work in your price range.

Steps:
- For the chips: Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or a deep fryer to 350 degrees F and, working in 2 batches, add the potato slices. Turn with a slotted spoon until crisp, about 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels, season with kosher salt and chopped dill. Repeat with remaining potato slices.
- For the lemon creme fraiche: Mix together the creme fraiche, chives, lemon zest and lemon juice in a large bowl. Serve with the potato chips and caviar for dipping.
CAVIAR SOUR CREAM DIP WITH POTATO CHIPS
This simple snack is a slightly fancier version of the time-honored practice of topping potato chips with sour cream and caviar. Here, the sour cream gets zipped up with scallions, chives and white pepper and the caviar - preferably bright orange beads of salmon roe - glow like jewels on top. One of the easiest hors d'oeuvres to put together, it's also one of the most festive.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Trim ends of potatoes. Using a mandolin or very sharp knife, cut potatoes into very thin slices, each no more than ⅛-inch thick (you'll want to have at least 24 slices, but slice up extras so you can choose the best-looking chips for your caviar). Arrange slices on paper towels and sprinkle on both sides with salt. Let sit 15 minutes, then blot dry with paper towels.
- Oil 2 large baking sheets; arrange potato slices in a single layer over the baking sheets. Bake until crisped, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. (Chips can be stored in an airtight container for up to 4 hours.)
- Place 24 chips on a platter. Top each chip with a generous ½ teaspoon crème fraîche, a scant ¼ teaspoon caviar and a sprinkling of chives. Serve immediately.

ROOT VEGETABLE CHIPS WITH ROASTED GARLIC DIP
"Carrots, parsnips, beets, taro, and lotus root all make chips that are not only delicious, but colorful, to boot. Make an assortment, and you'll have a rainbow in a bowl. The ricotta-garlic dip is the perfect partner, and one of the most-requested standards from my extensive dip-spread repertoire" ...so says Rick Rodgers in his book, "Fried & True: Crispy and Delicious Dishes from Appetizers to Desserts". Prep time does not include standing* or cooling time.

Steps:
- To make the dip: Preheat the oven to 400°F Cut the garlic in half horizontally, keeping the head as intact as possible-do not peel the garlic. Drizzle the cut surfaces with the oil and season with a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Put the two halves back together to re-form the garlic head. Wrap tightly in aluminum foil. Bake until the garlic is tender and the cloves have turned golden beige, 35 to 45 minutes. Unwrap the garlic and let cool completely. Squeeze the garlic pulp out of the skins into a small bowl, discarding the skins.
- Using a fork, mash the garlic pulp until smooth. Stir in the ricotta, Parmigiano, and sour cream. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Let stand* for 30 minutes at room temperature to blend the flavors. (The dip can be prepared 1 day ahead, covered, and refrigerated. Let it come to room temperature before serving.)
- To make the chips: Using a mandoline or plastic V-slicer, cut the root vegetables as directed below. The slices should be almost paper-thin, less than 116 inch. As the vegetables are sliced, place each kind in a separate large bowl of cold water and let stand* for 30 minutes to remove excess starch.
- Carrots and parsnips: Peel and cut lengthwise into very thin strips.
- Beets: Rub your hands lightly with vegetable oil to keep the beet juices from staining your skin. Peel the beets and cut crosswise into very thin rounds.
- Lotus roots: These can be found at Asian grocers, and make very interesting chips with random holes throughout. Peel and cut crosswise into very thin rounds.
- Taro: Also known as yautia, this root vegetable can be purchased at Latino and Asian markets. Fried taro chips have a slight purple tinge. Peel and cut crosswise into very thin rounds.
- Drain the vegetables well. Spread them out between layers of paper towels and pat completely dry.
- Place a large wire cake rack over a jelly roll pan. Fill a large roasting pan with a double thickness of crumpled paper towels. In a deep Dutch oven, melt vegetable shortening over high heat to a depth of 2 to 3 inches and heat it to 350°F
- In separate batches, without crowding, deep-fry the vegetables, stirring often with a wire-mesh skimmer to separate the chips, until the chips are golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. (If you are frying beets, fry them last, as their color may leach into the oil.) Using the skimmer, transfer the chips to the wire racks to drain briefly, then move them to the roasting pan with paper towels to remove excess oil. Separate each new layer of chips with more paper towels. The chips will crisp as they cool, and are best served at room temperature within 6 hours of frying. Just before serving, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and serve with the ricotta dip.
