Feed The Resistance: Tater-Tot Waffles with Smoked Salmon & Caviar!

 

This week, we celebrate National “Waffle” Week, with a little bit of a different take on Waffles.  The Tater-Tot Waffle is quite possibly the easiest dish you’ll ever make, and it’s YUMMY!!!  Thaw out some basic frozen tater-tots and spread a bunch of them out on a heated waffle iron.  Close the waffle iron and let the tots cook for about 5 minutes.  Open the iron and fill in any holes in your waffle with a few more tots, and then cook again for a few more minutes.  When the waffle is done, remove it from the iron and top it with whatever topping you would like, one of the recommendations from Food & Wine magazine is smoked salmon, crème fraîche, a little dill, a little caviar (I use really cheap stuff here) and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.

For Dee’s pairing, she chose the Lake Loop Cream Ale from Starkweather Brewing Company.  She was thinking that the creaminess of the beer would go well with the creaminess of the crème fraîche…and she was right!
