Caviar and White Beans

What can you say, this was my sustenance while packing my stuff before heading home. As inspired by Sophia Loren's version of this dish, all you need really is a good artisan bread, preferably a simple variety and your choice of beans. Canned white beans or cannellini is the preferred choice but if pressed, any canned beans white beans will do. There is not much in terms of a recipe but rather a simple instruction on how to present the dish in a appetizing way and to eat it with as much gusto as you can muster.

Caviar and White Beans

4 oz caviar (your choice of caviar)
1 15-oz can white beans, drained and mashed
slices of white bread
parsley leaf to garnish

To assemble this appetizer, spread an even amount of the mashed beans over the sliced bread. Top with about a teaspoon of caviar and garnish with the parsley leaf. You can spoon a drizzling of extra virgin olive oil or white truffle oil if desired. Enjoy and feast without any wine to savor the flavor of the caviar.
