Tagliatelle with Caviar

Author Peggye Marks

This combination of egg pasta and fresh Calvisius caviar is a special treat for any dinner party. An easy recipe that tastes like pure luxury.  Our favorite styles to use are the Tradition Elite, the Siberian or any of the Oscietras.

Ingredients


250 grams Tagliatelle Pasta
50 gram tin (or more) of fresh Calvisius caviar
75 grams / 2.5 oz good-quality butter (1/2 a stick)
2 tablespoons chives, chopped
Sea salt and freshly-ground black pepper, to taste
Asian-Cured Ocean Trout

Instructions

1. Bring a pot of water to boil, season it with salt and cook the Tagliatelle according to package instructions. While it cooks, melt the butter in a saute pan until just melted.  Be careful not to brown the butter.

2. When the pasta is al dente, drain it, saving some of the cooking water. Place the Tagliatelle in the pan with the melted butter and toss. Season it with black pepper to taste, 1 tablespoon of the chopped chivers and add cooking water to loosen, if needed.

3. Toss the pasta one more time, and divide between four plates. Top the tagliatelle with caviar, sprinkle the remaining chives over the top and serve immediately.
