Ingredients
  • 10 hard cooked eggs finely chopped (I use the cheese grater)
  • 8 oz. Of cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 cup of minced onion as fine as you can get
  • 3 tbsp. of softened butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon of white pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon of salt
  • 1 pint of sour cream, drained (use coffee filter in strainer for 3 hrs refrigerated)
  • 1 small jar of salmon roe caviar, (drained extra liquid/coffee filter/ in the refrigerator)
  • 1 small jar of black caviar, (dranied of extra liquid/in coffee filter while in the refrigerator)

Directions
  1. Combine hard cooked eggs, cream cheese, onion, butter, salt and pepper until well mixed.
  2. Shape into a square or a loaf.
  3. I use a nine x nine cake pan as a mold, lined with plastic wrap and invert it on my serving plate.
  4. Chill at least one hour.
  5. Put on a lettuce leaf lined serving plate.
  6. Frost with sour cream.
  7. Gently spoon the caviar on top, alternating red and black in stripes or in concentric circles.
  8. Spread very gentlyas to not break the eggs.
  9. Serve with party pumpernickel and party rye bread.

I don't know if i would really call this a 'mousse'...but i think i could eat the whole thing by myself...LOL...

such an unusual dish...


I agree about the "mousse" part too. But it was an old fashioned kind of dressed up egg salad. It vanishes at New Year's parties like magic. My mom had a gorgeous Waterford glass server that she served it on and it was "special grown up food" that we coveted as kids.


I can't wait to have a special occasion so I can give this dish a try.


My family will love this thanks high5
