We saw this Allrecipes recipe on @travelandmunchies, left out the jalapeno oil and topped it with caviar!

INGREDIENTS
Yogurt Spread:
1 cup Greek yogurt, at room temperature
1 clove garlic
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon salt, or to taste (Optional)
1 pinch cayenne pepper
2 ½ tablespoons finely chopped fresh dill, or to taste
Aleppo Butter:
½ stick unsalted butter
1 tablespoon Aleppo chile flakes
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
¼ teaspoon ground cumin
Poached Eggs:
1 tablespoon white vinegar, or as needed
4 large eggs
1 pinch sea salt
For Serving:
Tsar Nicoulai Caviar of choice (we used Reserve)
Fresh dill sprigs
Toasted, crusty bread

METHOD:
1. Make yogurt spread: Place yogurt in a medium bowl and grate in garlic; mix to combine. Season with pepper, salt, and cayenne. Add dill and mix thoroughly. Set aside at room temperature.

2. Make Aleppo butter: Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat; heat until bubbles begin to burst. Add chile flakes, paprika, and cumin. Stir until color is uniform. Turn off heat and let spices infuse.
3. Make poached eggs: Fill a large saucepan with 2 to 3 inches of water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, add vinegar, and keep water at a gentle simmer. Crack an egg into a small bowl, then gently slip egg into water, holding the bowl just above surface of water. Repeat with remaining eggs. Cook until whites are firm and yolks have thickened but are not hard, 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon, pat dry on a kitchen towel, and place onto a warm plate.
4. Dollop yogurt mixture onto serving plates. Use the back of a spoon to spread yogurt, carving ridges into the top. Top with eggs and your desired amount of Aleppo butter. Generously top with Tsar Nicoulai Caviar. Garnish with dill sprigs.
5. Serve with toasted crusty bread and enjoy! Share with a loved one.

Serves 2-4

INGREDIENTS
Tsar Nicoulai Smoked Gold Pearl Salmon Roe
3-4 Large Yukon Gold Potatoes
3 Tbsp Melted Butter
2 Tbsp Olive Oil (plus a bit more for the pan and adding to the salmon)
Salt and Pepper (to taste)
Labneh or Creme Fraiche (to taste)
Smoked Salmon (to taste)
Chives

METHOD
1. Begin by finely grating your potatoes. Then, using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth, extract as much moisture as you can from them. 
2. Mix together the melted butter and a drizzle of olive oil into the potatoes, seasoning them to perfection.
3. Preheat your cast iron skillet for 2 minutes on a high setting. Once hot, introduce a splash of olive oil and the prepared potatoes to the skillet.

5. Allow them to cook for approximately 12 minutes on each side over a medium or medium-high heat (adjust according to your stove's intensity), or until they achieve a glorious golden-brown hue.
6. Crown your potato creation with a dollop of crème fraîche, delicately placed slices of salmon, smoked roe, a sprinkle of chives and dill, a final drizzle of olive oil, and a pinch of freshly ground pepper.
7. Serve immediately to relish the harmonious blend of flavors and textures. Indulge in your culinary delight!

INGREDIENTS
For the dutch baby:
4 eggs, room temp
3/4 cup milk, room temp
3/4 cup flour
1/4 tsp salt
3 tbsp butter
5 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
2 sprigs or so each of parsley, dill, tarragon, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, minced

For topping:
200g Tsar Nicoulai Smoked Salmon
1/4 cup creme fraiche
2 tsp chopped dill
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest (plus more for topping)
1/4 tsp salt
Tsar Nicoulai Caviar and Roe, as much as you like

METHOD
1. Preheat your oven to 445F and place a cast iron pan on the middle shelf.
2. Blend eggs, flour, milk and salt until smooth and aerated.
3. Leave mixture to stand while the oven is heating.
4. Mix parmesan cheese, herbs, salt and garlic together
5. When the oven is at temp, carefully take out the cast iron pan (use oven mitts!) and add the butter. Let it bubble and melt completely. Pour your batter into the pan. Top with cheese and herb mixture.
6. Return the pan to oven for 15-20 minutes. Do not open the oven during this time!
7. Meanwhile make the dill creme fraiche: In a bowl mix the creme fraiche, chopped dill, lemon juice, zest and salt.
8. When the dutch baby is cooked and out of the oven, spoon creme fraiche over, arrange smoked salmon on top, then caviar, roe and more lemon zest if desired. Enjoy!

The perfect holiday party bite. Crispy outside, chewy inside, topped with a tangy herby creme fraiche, silky smoked salmon and creamy caviar.

INGREDIENTS
Loaf of pumpernickel bread, cut into 12 one inch cubes (you may have some bread left over depending on the size of your loaf, either increase the rest of the ingredients to make more, or reserve for another use)
3 tablespoons creme fraiche
Small handful of dill, finely chopped (to taste)
1/4 tsp lemon juice
0.5-1oz Tsar Nicoulai caviar of your choice (we used Golden Reserve)
1-2oz Tsar Nicoulai Smoked Salmon

METHOD
1. Heat a frying pan on medium and generously coat with cooking spray. Add pumpernickel cubes in a single layer and pan fry, rotating so that each side gets a golden brown crust. Add cooking spray as needed to prevent burning/sticking.
2. Make dill creme fraiche: Mix creme fraiche, dill and lemon juice until combined. Put into a Ziploc bag and cut the tip for easy piping.
3. Top each crispy pumpernickel cube with dill creme fraiche, a slice of smoked salmon and a spoon of caviar. Stick a decorative toothpick into each pumpernickel bite for guests to grab easily.

INGREDIENTS
400 grams ready roll of pizza dough (or make your own and roll out into a rectangle)
6oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 bunch of fresh dill (or to taste), chopped
Pinch of salt
4oz package of Tsar Nicoulai Smoked Salmon (cut into pieces if necessary)

METHOD
1. Preheat oven to 350F. Grease a round baking pan or line with parchment paper (8” or 9” should be fine)
2. Mix together cream cheese, dill and salt until well combined
3. Unroll pizza dough and spread cream cheese on top. Evenly top with slices of smoked salmon.
4. Roll dough up tightly from a longer side. Leaving the very top intact, cut lengthwise through the dough and turn the dough out a little exposing the inside. Twist the two ends around each other to form a sort of twist/braid.
5. Shape the braided rope into a circle gently pressing the ends into each other and place in the baking pan. Bake for about 45 minutes until the bread is golden brown and cooked through.

Recipe inspired by Sally’s Baking Addiction Overnight Ham and Cheese Strata

Yields 10-12 servings

INGREDIENTS
8-10 cups cubed bread, best if stale (we recommend cutting and laying out on a baking sheet overnight)
1 tbsp butter
1/2 an onion (or more/to taste), chopped
3 cups (or more/to taste) chopped spinach
2 cups cubed Tsar Nicoulai Estate Smoked Sturgeon (about 2 6oz packages)
2 cups shredded cheese (we used Parmesan)
9 large eggs
2 cups milk
1 tsp salt

METHOD
1. Generously grease a 9×13 inch (or similar size) baking/casserole dish.
2. Heat butter in a pan and sauté onions until they are soft and jammy. Add spinach and sauté until completely wilted.
3. In the prepared baking dish, layer the bread, then the onion and spinach, followed by the sturgeon. Sprinkle cheese evenly over top.
4. Whisk together the eggs, milk, and salt. Pour evenly over other ingredients in the baking dish.
5. Cover tightly and refrigerate for 1 hour or overnight (up to 12-16 hours).
6. Remove strata from the refrigerator and allow to sit out at room temperature for 15 minutes while you preheat the oven to 375°F.
7. Bake strata, uncovered, for 30 minutes. Loosely cover with aluminum foil for the remaining 20-30 minutes. Casserole is done when browned on the sides and puffy in the center.
8. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
