Luxembourg potato skins with whipped cod roe was a perfect beginning to our elegant meal. The little baby potatoes were scooped out and the skins fried. They were then stuffed with a delicious whipped cod roe and topped with some caviar and chives. This is a seriously delicious appetizer that would be wonderful for any classy affair.  If you don’t want to make the whipped cod roe from scratch you could use taramasalata which can be found in many Greek markets. The cod roe is often sold as tarama roe.
