Caviar turns a simple dinner party into a gourmet affair, and your guests will be impressed that you honored them by serving this delicacy. Because of the cost of beluga, it is most often used sparingly as a zing of flavor for a canapé or other hors-d’oeuvre. This caviar recipe is delicious served with carrot, zucchini, and celery strips or a flat, bland cracker.
