Steps:
- Peel the potatoes and cut them into quarters. Add them to a cooking pot and cover them with water. Season with a bit of salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer the potatoes until completely soft and tender.
- Using a slotted spoon transfer the potatoes to your electric mixer's bowl. With the whisk attachment on, mash the potatoes, adding some of the water they've boiled in. Once you have really light and very soft mashed potatoes turn your mixer off and let the potatoes cool down to room temperature. NOTE: The mashed potatoes need to be really soft and moist, not dense. Because the dip is going to get refrigerated, therefore the potatoes will thicken even more when cooled.
- Then add the pink Tarama into a blender or food processor along with the lemon juice, and the red onion peeled and cut into smaller pieces. Blend until smooth paste forms.
- Add this paste to the mashed potatoes. And using your electric mixer with the whisk on start mixing over medium speed, to incorporate the blended Tarama paste. (you may do this in a food processor if you own a large one that can fit the mashed potatoes) Then slowly pour in the olive oil while beating, until you have incorporated it all into the dip. Place the Tarama Dip in a food container or bowl and refrigerate for 2 hours before serving.
- NOTE: You can make this dip using a potato masher instead of the electric mixer. But the dip won't be as smooth and creamy.
- 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.

TARAMASALATA
While this is a sturdy and reliable recipe for making the greek cod roe spread called taramasalata from scratch, funnily enough it doesn't call for cod roe. I've come to prefer the commonly available and affordable salmon roe instead. If you are putting together a greek meze plate - with feta and kalamata olives, some marinated octopus and skordalia - save the brine from the feta and use it to season the taramasalata instead of lemon juice and see what you think. It lends a great acidity. Be sure to take the extra step of grating the cooked potato instead of more conveniently throwing it into the food processor and whizzing - to avoid a gluey texture. It'll keep in the fridge for a week and can be used a few ways all summer - add a grated white onion and toss with shaved celery and diced tomatoes as a salad dressing. Or thin with a little of the potato cooking water and some good olive oil and consider it as a sauce for whole grilled fish.

Steps:
- Place roe in the food processor with lemon juice. Microplane the garlic, and tap into the container.

TARAMOSALATA
Taramosalata is a classic Greek appetizer (meze). Satisfyingly delicious, it goes a long way as a party nibble and is also nice to have in the fridge for a quick lunch with some olives and a salad on the side. Fish roe is high in Omega 3 and Vitamin B12, and this is a great way to enjoy it.

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.

TARAMASALATA, HOMEMADE
You can buy this anywhere, but somehow there is always a slightly artificial flavour to it ... I made this tonight, and it's not too bad. Because Zaar's computer prefers definitive quantities, please see extra notes below. It actually needs a night in the fridge, but I didn't have the time to do that. It will not have the bright pink appearance of the supermarket taramasalata ... and I'm not going to add artificial colour!! Also, this recipe needs to be tasted, and adjusted: I bow to Zaar's computer which wants definite quantities, but the answer is still to taste and adjust. I dislike using potatoes, which gives tarama (to my taste) a rather glutinous taste.

Steps:
- The computer is at it again. I said "pressed cod roe", because that's what it says on the tin, but it "doesn't recognise" it. It's a firmly compressed, canned, light pink cod roe. So what you need is about 7oz/200g canned cod roe.
- Whirl 2 slices of bread in a processor or blender. I used brown bread, because that's all I had available. Remove and measure 1 cup.
- The usual tin of "pressed cod roe" is solid, so break it up and add to processor. Add bread. Whizz. It will be stiff, so just mix quickly and stop.
- I simply cut 1/3 off a sweet onion and weighed it for Zaar's purposes. You can use any small onion you have available.
- Add the chopped onion, Liquid Smoke, garlic, lemon juice and salt, and whizz again until well mixed.
- Add 2 tablespoons oil first, and see what the texture is like, then add the extra tablespoon.
- *NOTES: We get a highly concentrated hickory smoke "liquid smoke" in a bottle (quite natural, would you believe). It's handy to give that hint of smoke, as I've never been able to find "smoked cod's roe" as some recipes prescribe. If you can't find it, just leave it out.
- Also, most recipes use less roe and much more olive oil and bread, but somehow that would never have worked here. As it is, this taramasalata was still fairly soft after 2 hours in the fridge. I think leaving it overnight would be best: it will firm, and the flavours will mix.
- I kept thinking that lime juice would have been perfect, just a little less than specified, but I didn't have limes.
- Your mixture will probably need more salt. In the end I added more than stated above.

Steps:
- Soak the bread in a bowl of cold water, then squeeze out the excess and tip into a food processor or blender. Cut through the thick skin of the roe lobes, scrape out the soft roe underneath and tip into the food processor with the bread. Add the onion, garlic, lemon juice and a good grind of black pepper, then whizz to a paste.
- With the motor running, gradually drizzle in the olive oil, then the sunflower oil, until everything is incorporated and you have a slightly thicker paste. Scrape the taramasalata into a serving bowl, drizzle with a little more olive oil and serve with toasted pittas for dipping.

Steps:
- Place roe in a bowl and cover with cold water; soak 10 minutes. Drain in a fine sieve lined with cheesecloth. Rinse; drain again. Gather cheesecloth around roe, and squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
- Meanwhile, cover potato in a saucepan with 2 inches cold water and add 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain, and let cool.
- Puree roe, potato, and lemon juice in a food processor. With machine running, add oil and process until smooth. Season with pepper.
- CRUDITÉS
- The dips here are accompanied by spring produce, but nearly any vegetable can be used in a platter of crudités. Serve tender vegetables, such as celery, snap peas, and baby carrots, raw; broccoli, green beans, and cauliflower are better (and lose little nutritional value) when blanched for 2 to 3 minutes in boiling water and then shocked in an ice-water bath.

- 2. Drain and squeeze the excess water from the bread before transferring it to a food processor bowl.
- 4. Taste and adjust the texture or flavor as necessary, adding more olive oil or lemon juice until the spread is thick and pillowy. The tanginess of the lemon should balance the saltiness of the roe.
