4 slices white bread |
4 cups corn oil |
1 cup lemon juice; (room temperature) |
1/2 teaspoon onion powder |

1. Place tarama in a bowl and work with a hand blender until smooth, for about 30 seconds.
2. Transfer tarama to a separate mixer bowl and set aside.
3. Again with hand blender in original bowl, combine the 4 slices of bread with 1/2 cup of the corn oil and 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice until smooth.
4. Transfer the bread mixture to a mixer bowl as well.
5. With the mixer set to high, add the remaining lemon juice and corn oil to tarama very slowly and alternating.
