Lately I've been enjoying something called "Spuma di Tonno" from _Casual
Cooking_ by Michael Chiarello. I eat it on slices of European cucumber--the long, unwaxed ones that come in plastic wrap in the supermarket--although homegrown cucumbers without wax would also be great. (Of course, many other crisp vegetables, such as red peppers and pea pods, would be fine, too.) Non-diabetics would like it on something like crackers, grissini, or bagel crisps of course. Here's the recipe: 2 5-oz cans of Italian-style tuna packed in olive oil, drained 1 Tbs fresh lemon juice 1 Tbs soy sauce 1 Tbs balsamic vinegar 2 Tbs unsalted butter, softened Sea salt and fresh black pepper 1 1/2 Tbs heavy cream Put fish in food processor. Pulse to break up. With the machine running, add lemon, soy, and vinegar. Add butter and blend until smooth. Scrape down the sides, season to taste with salt and pepper, and blend again. Add cream and pulse to blend. (Don't overblend after adding the cream or the mixture might break.) Serve at room temperature or slightly chilled. Keeps covered in the fridge for several days. (I don't really know how long it lasts because it's always gone in a day here.) This is very flavorful and both cheaper and a lot less calorific than smoked trout mousse, my other spread of choice for cucumber slices. |
