Taramosalata has a wonderful flavor that is reminiscent of lox on a bagel. It is rich and salty but like many Mediterranean dishes, the ingredients are good for you. Consuming fish roe is one of the many ways to get your Omega-3 fatty acids as well as protein.
Also, olive oil, as we’ve mentioned many times on our site, is an excellent source of healthy fat and contains antioxidants.
Serve Taramosalata as a meze (with Ouzo) and a side of cucumbers, bread or other vegetables. καλή όρεξη (kali orexi – enjoy your meal!)
If you're not a fan of onions, you can leave them out.

i love this greek dip! so delish.
Thanks for the comment, Dina! We love this spread as well. Actually, I was a bit nervous the first time I had it, as I thought it would be too “fishy.” However, that’s not the case at all, the flavors mix well and I don’t mind it one bit. I also don’t mind making it from time to time without the onions 🙂
Looks really good! As a woman from South of France, I’ll spread it on tasted baguette!
Now that would be delicious!
Guys you’re doing a great job !!! I’m a Greek woman who was raised by her grandmother and all your recipes are similar with the ones that yiayia used to teach me!!!
Just to the taramasalata my yiayia was adding one boiled potato. It makes it smoother, filler and it gives it better taste… Just an advice… Keep up the good job!!! Thank you for everything!!!
