TARAMOSALATA

Steps:

• Have ready a stand mixer fitted with a grinding attachment. (You may use a ricer or grater, but the results will not be the same). Coat your mixing bowl with a small amount of corn oil. Pass the onion, potatoes and almonds through the grinder and into the bowl. Fold in the tarama.
• Remove the meat grinder and fit the mixer with the paddle (or use a wooden spoon). With the mixer on medium, add the lemon juice and then the remaining corn oil in a slow and steady stream. Slowly add the olive oil, mixing constantly. Add the seltzer a few tablespoons at a time. It should have the consistency of a light and airy mousse. Refrigerate for at least one hour before serving.

Steps:

• Run the almond, potatoes and onions through a meat grinder, allowing the mixture to drop into a bowl with a little corn oil at the bottom. Combine the potato mixture with tarama and transfer it to a standing mixing bowl. Fit the mixer with a paddle attachment. Add lemon juice and mix on #2 speed. Add corn oil in a slow steady stream. If mixture gets too thick, ad a splash of seltzer. Continue to add oil until it is fully blended. Add olive oil in slow steady stream. Combine and finish with seltzer until mix is the consistency of light mashed potatoes.
