Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Classic Taramosalata.
Step 1
Start by taking a bowl and adding your bread, then pour in some cold water to cover it completely.
Step 2
Let it soak for about 5 to 10 minutes, allowing the bread to absorb all that moisture and become nice and soft.
Step 3
Once it’s fully saturated, drain the water and give the bread a gentle squeeze to remove any excess liquid—this will help achieve the perfect texture.
Step 4
Next, grab your food processor and toss in the soaked bread along with a splash of olive oil, a handful of chopped onion, and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
Step 5
Blend everything together until you have a smooth and creamy mixture that’s bursting with flavor.
Step 6
Finally, add the tarama to the bowl and give it another whirl in the processor until everything is beautifully combined and silky.
Step 7
This delightful blend is perfect for spreading or dipping, and it’s sure to impress your family and friends! Enjoy your culinary creation!.
