A dish from the common Turkish-Greek culinary pool, tarama is best made fresh using the sticky smoked roe of grey mullet. Cod’s roe works as a good alternative. It is delicious served with strips of cucumber sprinkled with salt or chunks of beyaz peynir rubbed in olive oil and dried oregano and grilled.
