Soak the stale bread crumb in cold water for 5 minutes.
Squeeze the bread in your hands to remove excess water.
Remove the fish roe from its membrane and put it in a food processor.
Add the bread, red onion, garlic, lemon juice, and black pepper.
Blend until the mixture becomes a smooth spread.
Add the olive oil and sunflower oil in a thin stream to make it creamy.
Transfer the taramosalata to a serving bowl and chill for 10 minutes.
💡 Tip: Adding the oil in a thin stream keeps taramosalata creamy without splitting.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve cold as a mezze with toasted pita, cucumber, and olives.
