698.0. "Caviar and champagne brunch--HELP!!" by TEACH::ELLEN () Thu Sep 03 1987 15:28

    HELP! I need to know how to serve caviar in a breakfasty-sort of
    manner. Would it go well with cream cheese on croissant, or 
    does anyone have any tried and true recipes for it??

698.1Caviar Brunch ideasTHE780::WILDEAnalysis, Mr. Spock?Sat Sep 05 1987 16:5331
For good caviar:

trim crust from dense white bread, toast and cut each slice into
quarters to create toast points.

JUST BEFORE SERVING:

Cover each toast point with a thin layer of cream cheese,
and decorate with caviar, chopped hard-cooked egg yolk, diced
red onions ... I use the stripe method where I put the caviar
at the point, then onions, then eggs in three zones on the
toast....serve with good, dry champagne or mimosas:

		MIMOSA

	1/2 fresh squeezed orange juice
	1/2 dry champagne

Serve in fancy champagne glasses and garnish with fruit.

For a caviar brunch, I recommend a nice fresh fruit salad to
finish off the caviar and toast.

Another option for brunch:

make an omelet and put caviar in it...this can be rich, so
make the omelet small, and use a light dusting of caviar
and some sour cream as filling.

		Bon Apetit!

    Try water biscuits. Bath Olivers are nice, but I am not sure if
    you can get them in the USA
698.4Loaded MimosaCSCMA::L_HUGHESWed Sep 09 1987 14:0612
    I've got a recipe for a loaded mimosa that will knock your
    socks off! I usually make these in 16oz glasses.
    
    equal parts orange juice and champagne
    1 shot of Absolut Vodka
    1 shot of Grand Marnier
    Ice
    
    Don't let your guest drive for some time after this drink.

698.5Brunch Texas StyleSQUEKE::BIGGSSat Nov 07 1987 06:1017
    One of my favorite's for brunch..........
    
                           Scotched Eggs
    
    1 doz. eggs
    1 can pears (drained and diced)
    1 cup (your favorite) scotch
    
    Scramble eggs with scotch and add diced pear just before done. 
    Easy?  Serve with venison sausage, cinnamon toast and rose' wine.
    
    French coffee and donuts "a la New Orleans" later.
    
    p.s.  I don't know where to get venison sausage here in New England.
          I import mine from Texas twice a year when I go home and raid
          my mom's freezer.

    No mail-order....but the farm just outside of Marlboro, Ma., the
    one that has the beeffalo buffloes  ( you know, the bison that or
    part cow. ).  Anyway I heard you could by venison there.  Also
    there is a place somewhere on Amhurst st in Nashus N.H. that is
    said to sell venison.  If you know someone who hunts you may be
    able to get some from them.  Just mix the venison with some pork
    and spices and you got it.  Casing for links can be bought at the
    supermarket.
