SALMON TIMBALLES AND SCALLOPS TARTARE WITH CAVIAR

Steps:

• Combine all the marinade ingredients, except the lime juice, in a small deep bowl. Add the salmon and scallop dice, stir well and add just enough lime juice to barely cover the mixture. Cover tightly and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
• Lightly oil 12 mini muffin cups, timbale molds or similar vessels roughly one-and-a-half-inches across and one-inch high. Line with squares of plastic wrap, keeping them as smooth as possible.
• Line the molds with the thin salmon slices, overlapping if necessary to cover interior completely, letting the excess hang over.
• Drain the marinated mixture, pressing hard on the solids to remove all possible liquid, then distribute it among the lined molds. The mixture should mound slightly above the edges. Fold the edges of the salmon liner over the tops, cover with plastic wrap and weight with a heavy cutting board or other flat weight.
• Chill the timbales for one or two hours, then remove from molds and reverse to show smooth bottoms. Top each with a dab of creme fraiche, sprinkle with chives and add a half teaspoon of the caviar.

SMOKED SALMON, CAVIAR AND CREAM CHEESE ROLL UPS

Steps:

• In a small bowl mix the cream cheese and chives. Lay the slices of salmon out flat. Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture on 1 side of each slice salmon. Starting from a short end roll the salmon snugly over the filling. With a blanched leek tie the salmon to secure it. Arrange the "sushi" cream cheese side up. Garnish the top with a small dollop of caviar.
