Yield: 28 appetizers

Canapes
(can be made 1 day ahead)
7 white bread slices
Butter, softened

Cut each bread slice into 4 equal pieces with a cookie cutter of your choice.

Butter one side of bread, place on greased baking sheet butter side up. Bake at 350° for 8 to 10 minutes or until lightly brown.

Crème Fraiche
(can be made 2 weeks ahead)
1/4 cup sour cream
1/2 cup heavy cream

To speed up process combine sour cream and heavy cream in a saucepan over low heat bringing temperature up to  but not exceeding 85 to 90° degrees. Pour into a partially covered container, store at 75° degrees for 6 to 8 hours or until thickened. Stir, cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

Topping 
1-1/2 tablespoons red onion, finely chopped
salt and pepper, to taste
1/2 red bell pepper, trimmed, diced small or cut into stars, hearts, triangles
7 teaspoons Osetra caviar
Parsley leaves for garnish

Rinse red onion in sieve 30 seconds under cold water to remove sharp taste; drain on paper towels.

Whip Crème Fraiche to soft peaks, fold in onion, salt and pepper.

Place 1 teaspoon Crème Fraiche-onion mixture on each toasted bread canape, top with 1/4 teaspoon caviar (be sure to use a non-metal or plastic spoon). Garnish with bell pepper and parsley.  Serve caviar appetizer on a large platter.

Wine recommendation: Champagne
