Serves 6 to 8.

Spoon mixture onto toasted triangles of sourdough bread or into Chinese ceramic serving spoons.

Remove toasties or Chinese spoons from the oven and top individually with a dot of crème fraiche, and then a dot of caviar (optional). Finish with a sprig of chervil to garnish. * Prime Fillet Albacore Tuna and Potato Casserole Ingredients: 1/2 cup olive oil 2 large onions, thinly sliced 4 medium Anaheim chilies, seeded and thinly sliced 2 bay leaves 8 garlic cloves, peeled and thinly sliced 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, quartered 1 cup dry white wine 3 cups vegetable stock or canned vegetable broth 6 to 8 saffron threads 1 tablespoon kosher salt 1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper 1 mild dried chili pepper 4 6-ounce cans of Bumble Bee Prime Fillet Solid White Albacore, drained 3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley Pinch of piment d'Espelette (Basque chili pepper) or mild cayenne powder Directions: Warm 1/2 cup olive oil in a large casserole over high heat. Add onions, Anaheim chilies, bay leaves, and garlic and sauté for 10 minutes.
Add the potatoes, wine, vegetable stock, and saffron. Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce heat to medium. Add salt, pepper, and dried chili pepper, and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Add the tuna and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes, or until warmed through.
Stir only occasionally to avoid breaking apart the fish. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Discard the bay leaves before serving. Serve in shallow soup bowls, and sprinkle with the parsley and piment d'Espelette.
