These Caviar Potatoes are a sophisticated yet simple appetizer that feels incredibly luxurious. Tender new potatoes are boiled until just fork-tender, then sliced into neat rounds. Each slice is crowned with a dollop of cool, tangy sour cream and a generous sprinkle of salty, briny caviar. The combination of the soft, starchy potato, the rich cream, and the popping fish eggs creates a perfect balance of textures and flavors. They are ideal for fancy cocktail parties, holiday gatherings, or as a quick, impressive starter for a romantic dinner. Despite their elegant appearance, they come together in under 40 minutes using pantry staples.
