I post this recipe today in honor and memory of a dear friend who died on Saturday and whose memorial service was yesterday. She taught me many things but among them was this recipe for caviar with cream cheese. I remember serving it once to a group of my friends, some of whom I thought to be quite sophisticated. One of them, my boyfriend of the moment, was a potato farmer from the tip of Long Island and not sophisticated at all. He asked what this was and when I told him, he tried it, liked it and ate almost the whole thing. The rest of my friends were afraid to touch it. Their loss!
Form some softened cream cheese into a shapely mound in the center of a serving plate. Cover the mound completely with caviar, the better quality, the better. Using a sharp knife, or vegetable peeler, cut an apple peel swirl of lemon peel from a fresh lemon and place the curl on top of the caviar. Serve with a mild cracker, cutting off a piece of lemon peel and placing it on the top of each serving. DEEE-licious.
