Instructions
To Make The Pink Tarama:
- Peel the potatoes and cut them into quarters. Add them to a cooking pot and cover them with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer the potatoes until completely soft and tender.
- Drain the potatoes and transfer them back to the hot pot. Mash them with a fork or potato masher. Set aside to cool down to room temperature.
- Cut the onion into smaller pieces and add to a food processor. Pulse until smooth.
- Then add the pink Tarama to the food processor along with the olive oil and pulse until thick paste forms.
- Add the lemon juice and blend until uniform.
- Add the mashed potatoes in batches to the food processor and pulse until fully incorporated.
- Serve the Tarama straight away or refrigerate for up to 4 days.
To Make The White Tarama:
- Place the stale bread in a bowl and pour enough water to cover the bread. Let the bread soak for about 1 hour. Then remove the bread from the bowl and squeeze it really well with your hands to remove all the water. Place it in a bowl and set it aside.
- Peel the onion and cut it into smaller pieces. Place inside a blender or food processor along with the lemon juice and white Tarama. Blend until smooth paste forms. Then incorporate the bread in bits at a time and keep blending until nice and smooth.
- Add the olive oil in slowly, while keep blending until it all gets incorporated into the dip. Then place the Tarama Dip in a bowl or food container and refrigerate for about 2 hours before serving.
